Forestar, una opción para mitigar la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero en feedlots
(Estación Experimental Agropecuaria Balcarce, INTA, 2020-03)
En este artículo proponemos una aproximación de la cantidad de árboles que se necesitarían plantar para mitigar la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero producidos por los bovinos engordados a corral, tomando como caso ...
Nitrous Oxide Fluxes from a Commercial Beef Cattle Feedlot in Kansas
(2014-03-10)
Emission of greenhouse gases, including nitrous oxide (N2O), from open beef cattle feedlots is becoming an environmental concern; however, research measuring emission rates of N2O from open beef cattle feedlots has been ...
Simulation and optimization of a lamella settler for cattle feedlot wastewater treatment and nutrients recovery. Experimental validation in the field
(Elsevier, 2020-12)
Cattle concentrated animal feeding operations (feedlots), whose number has grown considerably in the last years, generate large volumes of wastewaters with a high organic load. The wastewaters are formed by rainfall-runoff ...
Mycoplasma bovis pneumonia in feedlot cattle and dairy calves in Argentina
(Brazilian Association of Veterinary Pathology, 2017-07)
Mycoplasma bovis has emerged as an important cause of feedlot pneumonia in many countries. The aim of this paper is to describe six cases of bovine Mycoplasma pneumonia in five different premises in Argentina. Gross ...
Experimental research on the effects of water application on greenhouse gas emissions from beef cattle feedlots
(2014-04-30)
The effect of water application (e.g., through rainfall or sprinkler system) on emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), such as nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4), and carbon dioxide (CO2), from pen surfaces of open-lot beef ...
Development of a welfare assessment protocol for practical application in Argentine feedlots
(Elsevier, 2022-08)
The intensification of livestock farming has led to the expansion of feedlots in many countries and Argentina is not an exception. As in any other husbandry context, there is a need to objectively adopt an evidence-based ...
Investigating nitrate dynamics in a fine-textured soil affected by feedlot effluents
(Elsevier Science, 2016-10)
Feedlots concentrate large volumes of manure and effluents that contain high concentrations of nitrate, among other constituents. If not managed properly, pen surfaces run-off and lagoons overflows may spread those effluents ...
Mycoplasma bovis-pneumonia and polyarthritis in feedlot calves in Argentina: First local isolation
(Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, 2022-05-21)
Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is one of the most frequent clinical concerns in weaned calves after their arrival at the feedlot. This work reports the first local isolation of Mycoplasma bovis from feedlot calves with ...
Static mixer continuous chemical coagulation-flocculation for cattle feedlot wastewater treatment
(Desalination, 2020-06)
Feedlots generate a large amount of manure-contaminated runoff wastewater that is accumulated in reservoirs and should be treated promptly before disposal. A promising alternative to reduce the organic level while recovering ...
Organizational and economic modeling of an anaerobic digestion system to treat cattle manure and produce electrical energy in Argentina's feedlot sector
(Elsevier, 2019-01)
This study identifies the main factors that affect the economic and organizational viability of a representative power generation project that applies an anaerobic digestion technology and uses cattle manure from feedlots ...
