[EN] Gas emissions from broiler production have been the subject of intensive research. However, little experimental information exists for farms under the particular management and environmental conditions of the European ...

Los alojamientos ganaderos, especialmente avícolas y porcinos, son una fuente importante de material particulado ("particulate matter", PM). Las concentraciones elevadas de PM en el ambiente pueden afectar a la salud de ...

[ES] En este trabajo se estudia la utilización de forrajes de producción propia en una explotación de bovino lechero, en tres casos:1.La caida del nivel de grasa de la leche, 2.La estimación de los costes de alimentacion ...

[EN] Defining the composition and properties of manure in livestock production is critical in order to minimise possible environmental impacts stemming from its management. In this study, a nitrogen balance was carried out ...

[EN] Broiler production in modern poultry farms commonly uses mechanical ventilation systems. This mechanical ventilation requires an amount of electric energy and a high level of investment in technology. Nevertheless, ...

[EN] In recent years, some broiler production farms especially in Mediterranean areas, have incorporated single-sided mechanical ventilation (i.e. air inlets and fans are located in the same lateral wall). However, little ...

The analyses of the different sources which can contribute to particulate matter (PM) emissions from livestock houses are essential to develop adequate reduction techniques. The aim of this study was to morphologically and ...

[EN] Determining accurately the ventilation rates from rabbits houses, using non-expensive and non-invasive methods, is needed. The main aim of this work was to test the carbon dioxide balance as a method to determine the ...
