Biosolids Effects in Chihuahuan Desert Rangelands: A Ten-Year Study by David B. Wester, Ronald E. Sosebee, Richard E. Zartman, Ernest B. Fish, J. Carlos Villalobos, Ricardo Mata-Gonzalez, Pedro Jurado, Corey A. Moffet

“…Over an 82-mo exposure period, total organic carbon, nitrogen, and total and available phosphorus decreased and inorganic matter increased. Grazing animals spent more time grazing, ruminating, and resting in biosolids-treated areas; positive effects on average daily gain were observed during periods of higher rainfall. …”

Forage-Based Heifer Development Program for North Florida by Jose C.B. Dubeux, Nicolas DiLorenzo, Kalyn Waters, Jane C. Griffin

“…Mild winters in Florida allows utilization of cool-season forages that can significantly enhance the performance of grazing heifers. During the warm-season, integration of forage legumes into grazing systems will provide additional nutrients to meet the performance required to develop a replacement heifer to become pregnant and enter the mature cow herd. …”

Dwarf shrub expansion and loss of lichens distinctly dominate multi-decadal changes in northern boreal understory plant communities by Tuija Maliniemi, Joonatan Lohi, Janne Alahuhta, Karoliina Huusko, Risto Virtanen

“…The observed changes reflect a shift into moister conditions and are likely linked to both succession and climate change. Long-term reindeer grazing is most likely the key driver reducing lichen cover, which may be further affected by the dwarf shrub expansion. …”

Haemonchosis in Small Ruminants Under Traditional Husbandry Systems in Apac District, Northern Uganda by Charles Dickens Opeto, Harriet Angwech, Acaye Ongwech, Benard Abola, Steven Odongo, Geoffrey M. Malinga

“…Significant predictors of infection were the origin of study animals, animal species, breed of animal, age of study animal, faecal consistency, lactation, multispecies grazing, grazing method, and anthelmintic use. The findings of our study provide information on the current status of H. contortus infections in goats and sheep under traditional husbandry systems in Uganda which are critical in designing effective control strategies for the disease.…”
