Assessment of farmers' knowledge, attitudes and control practices (KAP) to mitigate acaricide resistance and tick-borne diseases by Sunita Jamra, Mukesh Shakya, Anant K. Jayraw, Vivek Agrawal, Mamta Singh, Anil Kumar Sharma, Gajendra N. Bhangale, Gaya P. Jatav, Nirmala Jamra, Ala Tabor

“…Amongst various feeding systems for animals, a mixed type of feeding system was mostly adopted by 57.5% respondents followed by manger system (37.5%) while grazing was the least adopted method (5%). Results indicated that the grazing animals were 6 times (OR 95% CI 2.93–12.28) more susceptible to ticks and possessed heavy tick infestation. …”

LOW-FREQUENCY DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF A MECHANICAL VIBRATION SYSTEM UNDER BILATERAL NONLINEAR RESTRAINTS (MT) by WEN ZhiHua, ZHU XiFeng, WANG JianFeng

“…The results show that the periodic motions of the system are mainly transferred through Grazing bifurcation and Saddle-node bifurcation. Due to the irreversible transition process, there is a coexistence zone of periodic motion between adjacent motions. …”

Identification and Control of Coral Ardisia (Ardisia crenata): A Potentially Poisonous Plant. by Brent A. Sellers, Sarah Lancaster, Kenneth A. Langeland, Jason A. Ferrell, Michael Meisenberg, Joseph Walter

“…Since then, it has escaped cultivation, and it is found in hardwood hammocks and other moist, natural-wooded areas and grazing lands. Although there is no published literature supporting the theory that coral ardisia is toxic, it is suspected that the berries and/or foliage are poisonous to livestock, pets, and humans. …”

Quantitative Analysis of Driving Factors of Grassland Degradation: A Case Study in Xilin River Basin, Inner Mongolia by Yichun Xie, Zongyao Sha

“…Based on the analysis of satellite vegetation maps from 1984, 1998, and 2004 for the Xilin River Basin, Inner Mongolia, China, and binary logistic regression (BLR) analysis, we observe the following: (1) grassland degradation is positively correlated with the growth density of climax communities; (2) our findings do not support a common notion that a decrease of biological productivity is a direct indicator of grassland degradation; (3) a causal relationship between grazing intensity and grassland degradation was not found; (4) degradation severity increased steadily towards roads but showed different trends near human settlements. …”
