    When it comes to sustainable livestock production and agriculture, measurement is the first -- and sometimes most elusive -- step in the process of turning our food system from a carbon emitter ...

  3. Precision livestock farming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_livestock_farming

    The development of quantitative methods for livestock production includes mathematical modelling based in plant-herbivore or predator-prey models to forecast and optimise meat production. An example is the Predator-Prey Grassland Livestock Model (PPGL) [7] to address the dynamics of the combined grass-animals system as a predator-prey dynamical ...

  4. Cattle cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cattle_cycle

    The cattle cycle is the approximately 10-year period in which the number of U.S. beef cattle is alternatively expanded and reduced over several consecutive years in response to perceived changes in profitability by producers. Generally, low prices occur when cattle numbers (or beef supplies) are high, precipitating several years of herd ...

    At the same time, mixed crop-livestock systems already produced over 90% of the global milk supply as of 2013, as well as 80% of ruminant meat, [43] yet they would bear the minority of the costs, and switching all pure livestock systems to mixed crop-livestock would decrease global agricultural costs from 3% to 0.3%, while switching half of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_animal_farming

    Intensive animal farming, industrial livestock production, and macro-farms, [1] also known as factory farming, [2] is a type of intensive agriculture, specifically an approach to animal husbandry designed to maximize production while minimizing costs. [3]

  7. Livestock grazing comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livestock_grazing_comparison

    Livestock grazing comparison units are used by many governments to measure and control the intensity of farming. For example, until 2004 the UK Government had an extensification scheme which paid additional subsidy to farmers who kept their livestock at less than an average of 1.4 LUs per hectare. [1]

  8. Total mixed ration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_Mixed_Ration

    Total mixed ration (TMR) is a method of feeding beef and dairy cattle. A TMR diet achieves a wide distribution of nutrients in uniform feed rather than switching between several types. A cow's ration should include good quality forages, a balance of grains and proteins, vitamins and minerals. [1]

  9. Feed conversion ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed_conversion_ratio

    As of 2015 farm-raised Atlantic salmon had a commodified feed supply with four main suppliers, and an FCR of around 1. [31] Tilapia is about 1.5, [32] and as of 2013 farmed catfish had a FCR of about 1. [8] It is possible for fish to have an FCR below 1 despite obvious energy losses in feed-to-meat conversion.
