Achieving Sustainable Production of Milk Volume 3: Dairy Herd Management and Welfare

All three volumes of Achieving sustainable production of milk should be considered as a wholeOver more than 1200 pages, the authors review all fields of milk production, beginning with milk composition, genetics and breeding, safety and milk quality, sustainability of milk production as well as dairy herd management, health, welfare and nutrition of dairy. All three volumes could be considered a standard reference for graduate students in the fields of dairy science and veterinary medicine, animal and dairy scientists at universities and other research centres, and also those in governments and companies involved or working in the field of milk production.
Animal Feed Science and Technology

In meeting rising demand, more intensive dairying systems face a range of challenges such as maintaining high standards of safety in the face of the continuing threat from zoonoses entering the food chain, whilst sustaining nutritional and sensory quality. At the same time farms need to become more efficient and sustainable. Finally, farming must also meet higher standards of animal health and welfare.

Drawing on an international range of expertise, this book reviews research addressing the welfare, nutrition and health of dairy cattle. Part 1 begins by discussing key issues in welfare followed by topics such as genetic selection and welfare, housing and transportation. Part 2 looks at nutrition with chapters on rumen microbiology, feed evaluation and formulation, feed supplements and feed safety. The final part of the book covers aspects of health such as control of diseases and other disorders such as lameness as well as dairy herd health management.

Achieving sustainable production of milk Volume 3: Dairy herd management and welfare will be a standard reference for animal and dairy scientists in universities, government and other research centres and companies involved in beef production. It is accompanied by two other volumes which review milk composition, genetics and breeding as well as safety, quality and sustainability. See more

Dr John Webster is Emeritus Professor in Animal Husbandry at the University of Bristol UK. Amongst his many achievements Professor Webster was recently awarded an honorary degree by the Royal Veterinary College for his research in animal science as well as the Universities Federation for Animal Welfare (UFAW) Medal for Outstanding Contributions to Animal Welfare. He established the Animal Welfare and Behaviour Group at the University of Bristol one of the largest and most highly-regarded of its kind in the world and was a founder member of the Farm Animal Welfare Council which pioneered the Five Freedoms for farm animals. Dr Jennie Pryce is Principal Research Scientist at Agriculture Victoria Research part of the State Government of Victoria Australia where she lead the Animals Programme of DairyBio. Dr Pryce is also Professor at La Trobe University Australia. Yvette de Haas is employed as Programme Manager at Wageningen Livestock Research the Netherlands. Her expertise is in precision phenotyping for the purpose of animal breeding. Emily Miller-Cushon is an Assistant professor in the Department of Animal Sciences University of Florida. She completed her PhD in Animal Behavior and Welfare at the University of Guelph in 2014. Her research focuses on the relationships between management behavior and welfare of dairy calves. Dr. Trevor DeVries is a Canada Research Chair in Dairy Cattle Behavior and Welfare and an Associate Professor in the Department of Animal Biosciences at the University of Guelph. After receiving his Ph.D. in 2006 he worked for one year as a post-doctoral researcher at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada focusing his research on ruminant nutrition. In 2007 he was appointed as faculty with the University of Guelph. In his current position Trevor is involved in research and teaching in the areas of dairy cattle nutrition management behavior and welfare. John McNamara is an Emeritus Professor at Washington State University and a Fellow of ADSA and ASAS. His foundational research helped determine the quantitative contribution of specific pathways and enzymes to the efficiency of the cow. This research has discovered key elements of transcriptional control of metabolism led to expansion of systems models in research and the specific mechanisms of integration of nutritional metabolism and reproduction. He has been recognized as a world leader in systems biology and has given invited lectures in more than a dozen countries. He continues to focus on integrating genetics nutrition and reproduction in mathematical models of the cow. He has served on the NC 185 1009 and 1040 research committees for 25 years and has written 3 revisions of that project.
