Organic cattle farming is on the increase, with consumer demand for organic milk and meat growing yearly. Beginning with an overview of the aims and principles behind organic cattle production, this book presents extensive information about how to feed cattle so that the milk and meat produced meet organic standards, and provides a comprehensive summary of ruminant digestive processes and nutrition. Since the publication of the first edition, global consumers have increasingly become concerned with the sustainability of meat production. Here, Robert Blair considers the interrelationships of sustainable practices and profitability of organic herds, reviewing how to improve forage production and quality, and minimizing the need for supplementary feeding using off-farm ingredients. This new edition also covers: - Managing a recurrent shortage of organic feed ingredients, due to increased GM feed crop cultivation worldwide - Current findings on appropriate breeds and grazing systems for forage-based organic production - Diet-related health issues in organic herds and the effects of organic production on meat and milk quality. Required reading for animal science researchers, advisory personnel that service the organic milk and beef industries and students interested in organic milk and meat production, this book is also a useful resource for organic farming associations, veterinarians, and feed and food industry personnel.

Major changes have recently taken place in the value attached to components of milk. Although approximately half the energy in milk is contained in fat, fat is rapidly decreasing in value relative to protein. This has come about because of the increased availability of competitively-priced, plant-derived edible oils and because of the perceived health problems associated with animal fat in the human diet. Such changes have major implications for the dairy sector, particularly in developed countries. Against this background, this book presents a timely review of developments in milk production and consumption, of changes in milk component values, and of the opportunities that biotechnology provides to alter the composition of and add value to milk on the farm. The subject coverage is very broad, ranging from nutritional aspects of pastures and forages, to rumen microbiology, genetics and reproductive technologies, milk biochemistry and environmental implications. It is based on a conference held in Wellington, New Zealand, in February 1996 and sponsored by the OECD and AgResearch. Contributors include leading research workers from North America, Europe, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. It provides an invaluable overview of the subject, suitable as a reference book for advanced students, researchers and advisers in dairy science as well as related disciplines such as grassland, nutritional and food sciences.

This report reviews the energy and protein requirement systems for dairy cows currently used in Britain and presents a new approach, along with the outline of a model for its implementation. Current systems give little consideration to the responses of the animal to changes in the nutrient supply, or to interactions between dietary constituents in their effects on digestion and metabolism. Neither do they predict any effect on the partition of nutrient use between milk and body, or changes in the yields of milk fat, protein and lactose, which determine the commercial value of the milk. Therefore the systems, although not inaccurate, lack relevance to the current needs of UK milk producers. Models which embody concepts of nutrient supply and utilization are reviewed and their development as viable alternatives is considered. It is concluded that a new diet formulation system for dairy cows should aim to predict voluntary feed intake, the partition of nutrient use between milk production and tissue deposition, and the short and long-term of effects of nutrition on fat, protein and lactose yields. The physical and biological characteristics of the cow must also be recognized and incorporated into any model for response prediction. The report is also published in Nutrition Abstracts and Reviews - Series B: Livestock Feeds and Feeding. It is an authoritative review for advanced students, research workers and advisors in animal nutrition and in dairy science and technology.

With the current interest in the environmental and economic sustainability of dairy farming, grass forage crops have emerged as a potential solution to some of the nutrient management problems now encountered on intensively managed dairy farms. The expansion and reintegration of grass-based systems into the mainstream of dairying systems will require a major paradigm shift involving economic, social and ecological, as well as biological factors.This book examines the role of grass in milk production in sustainable agricultural ecosystems. It provides a current summary of the role of grass in dairy cattle systems, including the breeding, management, storage, feeding and economics of grass for both lactating and dry dairy cows. Written by leading specialists from Australia, Europe, New Zealand, North and South America, this is an essential reference source for researchers, dairy industry professionals and advanced students of forage and dairy cattle nutrition.

Start-ups and Magic in the Holy Land Roni Einav & Zvi Morik Eric Torrance and Ruth Lourie are two lovely American college graduates in their early twenties who met during their last year in college and quickly became a couple. The following summer, they plan to vacation together to Israel, the start-up unicorn valley and cradle of the world’s major religions. They look forward to an exciting journey. Eric, the third son of a New York Wall Street businessman and a stage performer, both of the Protestant faith, studied applied mathematics and computer science at Columbia University. Later, he moved to Berkeley, California, where he planned to earn his master’s degree and hoped to join the high-tech industry in Silicon Valley. Ruth is the elder daughter of a Jewish family from Los Altos, California, whose father was an Israeli navy officer and is currently a dentist, and her mother a Jewish American high school Spanish teacher, originally from Santiago, Chile. Ruth studied anthropology and psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, and is keenly interested in exploring ancient occult knowledge in Israel. In Tel Aviv the couple enjoys meeting Ruth’s father’s old-time friend, a leading start-up founder and investor with proven success who is ready to guide them and help Eric find his way into Israel’s high-tech ecosystem. While touring the country, the couple manages to explore other exciting magic worlds in Israel and meet a host of intriguing characters, including a powerful Kabbalah mystic in holy Safed, a terrifying Arab woman who tells their fortune, an expert of the secret Druze religion, peaceful Ahmadi Muslims in Haifa, and Good Samaritans on Mount Gerizim. The couple even experiences a Christian miracle at St. Peter’s Church in Jaffa, learns about the Neolithic sites of sun worshippers in the Golan, and is initiated into the original Israeli self-defense Krav Maga system. During this spiritual quest, Ruth and Eric encounter a series of hair-raising experiences and daring adventures—which they barely survive. Upon transitioning from vacation to professional work, they meet on October 7, 2023, with an agitating turn in their journey, when Hamas terrorists invade Israel in a bloody surge of violence against innocent civilians. Ron Weintraub is one of the first pioneers who initiated the myth of Israel’s high-tech industry, aka “Start-up Nation,” in the 1980s. Born to a modest blue-collar family in northern Tel Aviv, where he grew up and was educated, he learned that he could only count on his own skills and knowledge. Weintraub graduated with a degree in engineering and operations research from the Technion in Haifa, a highly acclaimed technical institute, and worked as a system analyst for Israel’s cutting-edge security infrastructure. After he followed his father’s advice to run his own business, Ron broke all Israeli records when he sold the 4th Dimension Software in 1999 for $675 million, a unicorn in modern terms, to BMC Software in Houston, Texas. Despite his impressive success, Weintraub didn’t slow down or retire. Instead, he kept busy and remained actively involved in various technology start-ups, founding more than thirty high-tech companies, including Jacada, Mend (formerly White Source), Cyboard, Guidde, and Eurekify. His dramatic and risky life story was depicted in Nordau to Nasdaq, which was translated and published in several languages. Ron Weintraub is married to Matia, an architect and town planner who also graduated from the Technion. They have raised four sons, all of them active in the start-up or academic scenes. They hope that their gifted grandchildren will also follow in their footsteps. Zvi Morik is a seasoned international publisher and editor with a solid academic background from Tel Aviv University in mathematical economics, stochastic processes, operations research, and game theory. His company, Dekel Publishing House (est. 1975), was initially an academic publisher that then branched out into various popular fields, such as martial arts and leisure activities. Its flagship product, the Israeli self-defense Krav Maga series, was successfully published and translated into English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and most European languages. Having noticed the key role that start-ups play in Israel’s economy and their benefits to society, he was delighted by the opportunity to write this book with Roni Einav, his charismatic youth movement instructor. Morik believes that this book will help interested readers to better understand the hidden magical facets of Israel as well as the spirit of its dynamic and often enigmatic modern start-up scene. Zvi Morik was born at an UNRRA DP camp in Odenwald, Germany, and immigrated with his parents to Israel as a baby. He is married to Pnina Ophir, a renowned Israeli copywriter. Their son, a Middle East expert, works as the export manager at Dekel Publishing House. An English-language edition has been scheduled for publication in Fall 2024. 176 pages, 15x 22.5 cm
