▼ Intensive livestock production and management systems are associated with increased faecal-oral pathogen transmission which can contribute to a high prevalence of multiple Salmonella serovars in large dairy farms and feedlots. Outbreaks of salmonellosis in livestock often reflect a series of events that compromise host immunity and increase pathogen exposure. High risk groups in cattle include neonates and post partum cows (Anderson, et al., 2001; House, et al., 2001a; Fossler, et al., 2005a) and variation in susceptibility to salmonella infection has been observed in sheep entering feedlots according to property of origin, body condition, and time of year (Norris, et al., 1989a; Norris, et al., 1989b; Richards and Hyder, 1991; Kelly, 1995; Makin, 2011). The associated increase in the incidence of disease and contamination of livestock-derived food products imposes a significant risk to food safety via consumption of contaminated meat, milk, eggs and vegetables. The development and application of effective Salmonella vaccines offers a potential means of reducing industry associated losses and public health risks. Effective Salmonella vaccination therefore requires induction of protection against several Salmonella serovars and stimulation of both innate and acquired immune mechanisms. Vaccine prophylaxis is normally achieved through vaccinating animals several weeks prior to virulent pathogen exposure. This is not possible in neonates where exposure occurs at birth and in feedlots where livestock are sourced from diverse locations and vendors. Additionally, direct physical handling of livestock to administer vaccines contributes to stress and may lead to carcass damage. Conducting stressful procedures at feedlot induction when there is concurrent exposure to a diversity of pathogens contributes to an increased risk of disease. iii Traditional vaccination methods are labour intensive and associated with carcass damage and adverse reactions. Oral delivery of vaccines and medications via drinking water is a common practice in intensively managed poultry. Oral vaccine delivery via drinking water avoids the stress of additional handling and provides a means of rapidly vaccinating large numbers of animals. The efficacy of Salmonella vaccination is largely influenced by the diversity of Salmonella serovars encountered and the interval between immunisation and pathogen exposure, which may be short in field settings, e.g., following birth, during transport and following introduction into feedlots. The timing of virulent pathogen exposure may also have an impact on the safety of a Salmonella vaccine. It is imperative to develop livestock vaccines that are capable of safely eliciting potent states of cross-protective immunity against a diversity of serovars. This thesis examines the capacity of the dam S. Typhimurium vaccine (serogroup B) to elicit cross-protection against a virulent challenge in models of neonate and adult ruminant models of salmonellosis, as well as investigating in-water vaccine delivery. Cross-protective…

▼ The purpose of this study was to assess the perceptions of and motivations for purchasing exhibition livestock through online auctions. Furthermore, the study obtained preferred characteristics of exhibition livestock auction presented on the Internet. The study's population consisted of all agricultural education teachers teaching for the 2013-2014 academic school year in Oklahoma (N = 428). Using a non-experimental descriptive research study, data were collected to describe the perceptions and motivations for purchasing exhibition livestock through online auctions. Based on the findings, the typical agricultural education teacher in Oklahoma is a 40-year-old male who has taught an average of 14.40 years. The average size of an Oklahoma FFA chapter is 92 members; however, the most frequent chapter size is 62. Agricultural education teachers in Oklahoma use their smart phones and access their email accounts frequently for work related purposes. However, the teachers either use social media frequently or not at all. All teachers have viewed and purchased students' exhibition livestock via an online auction but rarely, if ever, purchase without evaluating the animal in person. Leading motivators for purchasing livestock online were the variety in the choice of sellers, availability of more livestock to view, or their beliefs that buying online is the only option available for some breeders' livestock. Additionally, the majority of Oklahoma agricultural educational teachers prefer to see both pictures and videos when purchasing exhibition livestock through online auctions.Time management plays a critical role the agricultural education teachers' decisions to purchase students' livestock via online auctions. These teachers do not consider online livestock purchasing as more cost effective; however, they perceived a difference in the quality of livestock sold through online auctions as compared to traditional auctions. Exhibition livestock sellers should evaluate how they promote their livestock to this audience and include appropriate technologies. Exhibition livestock breeders who sell through online auctions should allow buyers to evaluate the livestock in person before the online auction begins, and they should integrate video into their existing online auction sites. The instrument should be revised to conduct research with additional populations, such as online auction managers, livestock breeders, and livestock buyers.

▼ The main objective of the study was to analyze the situation of livestock production in Liberia. The specific objectives were to analyze the population of livestock in Liberia, to establish the factors limiting the production of livestock in Liberia, to analyze Liberia land use system of the livestock production sector and to analyze the economic impact of livestock production in Liberia. The study was a case study which surveyed three counties in Liberia: Nimba, Bong and Montserrado. Nimba and Bong are in the north and Montserrado in the south respectively. Descriptive analysis was conducted through the triangulation involving both qualitative and quantitative research methods and primary data, well- structured questionnaires, key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and meetings with the relevant stakeholders. The study findings revealed that livestock production in Liberia is on the increase. However, livestock production in Liberia is limited by factors such as respondents’ lack agriculture training, insufficient infrastructure, lack of veterinary services, insufficient finances, shortage of commercial feed supplements, inefficient and ineffective implementation of Government policies, lack of market and competition from imported livestock produce. The study established that pasture land is largely communal and is continuously used for livestock production. The study found that there is a little extent of application of pastureland management practices. Most of the farmers produce livestock for immediate consumption and sustainable livelihoods and not for commercial purposes. The study recommended that livestock should be included in the Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs), the public sector should develop and enforce policy and regulatory frameworks for livestock, regulatory capacity of livestock authorities should be strengthened, collective action among smallholders should be strengthened. Moreover, the government should encourage Private or Public-NGO partnerships to deliver livestock services to livestock farmers.

▼ The use of livestock guarding dogs (LGDs) to mitigate farmer-predator conflict in Namibia was evaluated. As farmer-predator conflict has two sides, LGDs were evaluated in terms of livestock production and conservation. The main objectives in terms of livestock production were to document: 1) the perceived ability of LGDs to reduce livestock losses in a cost-effective manner; 2) the farmers’ satisfaction with LGD performance; and 3) factors influencing LGD behaviour. The main objectives in terms of conservation were to record: 1) predator killing by farmers relative to LGD introduction; 2) direct impacts of LGDs on target (damage-causing) species; and 3) the impact of LGDs on non-target species. This evaluation was conducted on LGDs bred by the Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) and placed on farms in Namibia. The data were collected during face-to-face interviews with farmers using LGDs. Historical data from the CCF programme were used in conjunction with a complete survey of the farmers in the CCF LGD programme during 2009-2010. In terms of livestock production, 91 percent of the LGDs (n = 65) eliminated or reduced livestock losses. Subsequently, 73 percent of the farmers perceived their LGDs as economically beneficial, although a cost-benefit analysis showed that only 59 percent of the LGDs were cost-effective. Farmers were generally satisfied with the performance of their LGDs. However, farmer satisfaction was more closely linked to good LGD behaviour than the perceived reduction in livestock losses. The most commonly-reported LGD behavioural problems (n = 195) were staying at home rather than accompanying the livestock (21 percent) and chasing wildlife (19 percent). LGD staying home behaviour was linked to a lack of care on subsistence farms, as high quality dog food was not consistently provided. Care for LGDs declined with LGD age on subsistence, but not commercial, farms. In terms of conservation, predator-killing farmers killed fewer individuals in the year since LGD introduction than previously; this result was only significant for black-backed jackal Canis mesomelas. However, 37 LGDs killed jackals, nine killed baboons Papio ursinus, three killed caracals Caracal caracal and one killed a cheetah Acinonyx jubatus (n = 83). Farmers and LGDs combined killed significantly more jackals in the survey year than the same farmers (n = 36) killed before LGD introduction. Conversely, five farmers killed 3.2 ± 2.01 cheetahs each in the year before LGD introduction, whereas LGDs and these farmers combined killed only 0.2 ± 0.2 cheetahs per farm in the survey year. Only 16 LGDs (n = 83) killed non-target species. The high LGD success rate in terms of livestock production was facilitated by livestock husbandry practices in the study area. In terms of conservation, LGDs were more beneficial for apex predators than for mesopredators and had a minor impact on non-target species.

▼ The levels of malnutrition in Zambia are some of the highest in Africa with 51.9% of children less than 5 years of age undernourished. The prevalence of the wasting form of malnutrition is 6%, with Eastern province having the third highest prevalence of stunting in the country, only better than Luapula and Central provinces. At the same time, Eastern province is among the provinces with the highest number of livestock in the country. A case-control study was conducted in Chipata, Chadiza and Lundazi districts of the Eastern Province of Zambia to determine whether there was a relationship between livestock keeping at household level and presence of malnutrition in under-five years aged children. Two sampling frames one for cases (malnourished children) and the other for controls were generated from the health centre under-five years of age children’s registers. The sampled malnourished children were confirmed by use of the Mid Upper Arm Circumference tape and presence of odema. A household was considered as keeping livestock if it had one or a combination of the following: two or more cattle, six or more goats and sheep, fifteen or more full grown birds such chickens. A questionnaire was used to capture all the data on hypothesised risk factors. Fisher's exact test was used to determine associations between categorical variables and binary logistic regression analysis was used to determine predictors of malnutrition among under-five years aged children. All statistics were considered significant at p≤0.05. One hundred and forty-five households were sampled using systematic sampling method, of these ninety seven were controls and forty eight were cases. About 72.4% (95% C.I = 63.9 – 81.0%) of households in the study area kept livestock. Although the percentage of households that kept livestock among the cases was slightly lower (31.4%, 95% CI = 22.5 – 40.3%) than among the control (68.6%, 95% CI = 57.9 - 59.3%), livestock keeping alone was not significantly associated with the reduction of malnutrition in under-five years children (p=0.243). Crop farming alone was also found not to be significantly associated with the reduction malnutrition of under-five children at household level (p = 0.447). However, mixed farming (growing crops and keeping livestock) at households level was found to be significantly associated with the low malnutrition levels in the under-five years children (p = 0.008). The percentage of household who practiced mixed farming among the case was lower (31.6%, 95% CI = 17.7 – 45.5%) than those among the controls 68.3% (95% CI = 59.1 - 77.5%). Other variables that were found to be significantly associated with low malnutrition level in under-five years aged children in the study area were birth interval of the siblings and the number of children in the household. It is, therefore, recommended that households in Eastern province should be encouraged to do mixed farming, reduce the number of children they bear and also increased child spacing.

▼ Among the vast diversity of plants in the mid-South to which grazing livestock are exposed, there is a need to address certain species that are potentially harmful to livestock health and production. Field and greenhouse experiments were conducted on endophyte-infected tall fescue [Schedonorus arundinaceus (Schreb.) Dumort = Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.) Darbysh.], a cool-season perennial forage, and perilla mint, (Perilla frutescens (L.) Britton) an herbaceous annual, to determine management techniques and control measures for healthier pasture and livestock systems. When seedheads reached maturity, spring and autumn glyphosate applications at 1.68 kg ae ha^-1, coupled with autumn tillage and summer and winter cover crops effectively reduced tall fescue coverage to < 27% by 10 months after initial treatment (MAT) following a single year of management. If seedhead maturity is inhibited prior to first glyphosate application, tall fescue was reduced to <1% coverage 10 MAT. Despite seedhead suppression, at least 78% increase in coverage occurred in 24 months from remnant populations suggesting two years of renovation is required. Forage soybeans proved to be a valuable cover crop that maintained nutritive quality and mean dry matter yields of 5487 kg ha^-1 across two years. Tall fescue seedheads were suppressed below 14% coverage (> 68% visual control) by nicosulfuron + metsulfuron (20 + 5 and 40 +11 g ai ha^-1), imazapic (26 and 53 g ai ha^-1), and sulfosulfuron (53 g ai ha^-1) at 90 DAT. Reduction in forage heights may be expected, but was not consistently reduced when compared to untreated plots across locations. To control perilla mint, postemergence applications of aminocyclopyrachlor blends, glyphosate, picloram + 2,4-D, aminopyralid + 2,4-D, and 2,4-D alone provided superior control when applied prior to the plants reproductive growth stage. Picloram + 2,4-D also provided in-field soil residual activity and the most effective preemergence control, followed by aminocyclopyrachlor + chlorsulfuron, pendimethalin, and aminopyralid + 2,4-D for at least 141 DAT. Seed from weedy populations in north Mississippi tend to germinate in a range of night/day soil temperatures from 10/15 C to 25/30 C. Therefore, effective preemergence treatments should be applied by mid- to late- February in this region. Advisors/Committee Members: John D. Byrd (chair), Jane A. Parish (committee member), Daniel B. Reynolds (committee member), J. Mike Phillips (committee member), Gary N. Ervin (committee member).

▼ newline ABSTRACT newlineBalanced and effective feeding are the most important prerequisites for economic production of livestock and poultry. So, minimization of feed cost would be a great achievement for livestock and poultry farmers if the unconventional but potential ingredient like Seabuckthorn (SBT) cake would be introduced as the replacer of major protein sources, as nutritionally, SBT cake is very rich in proteins, fat, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. Very little systematic and scientific work has been conducted to study the effects of feeding SBT cake to the livestock and poultry. Hence, the present study was envisaged to see the effect of replacement of CP of conventional feed of layers and calves, with that of SBT cake to evaluate biological performances, nutrient utilization, rumen metabolites and cost benefit ratio by feeding SBT cake. newlineThree experiments were conducted to study the effect of SBT cake on layers and calves production. First trial was conducted in 360 BV-300 layer chicks which were offered conventional rations in control (S0) group and replacing 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 per cent CP by SBT cake CP. The second experiment was aimed to study the effect of SBT cake on growth of calves where 18 calves of 4-5 months age were divided in 3 treatment groups having 6 animals in each group. The conventional CGR was offered in control group (SBT0) and replacing 50 per cent and 75 per cent CP of the control group with the CP of SBT cake in SBT50 and SBT75 groups respectively. One more trial was conducted as a third experiment, aimed to observe the effect of SBT cake on rumen metabolites and rumen microbial population in adult cattle. Three adult cattle (fistulated) were maintained on three rations with a switch over design. The crude protein contents of the basal ration (T1) were replaced with SBT cake CP at 50 (T2) and 75 (T3) per cent CP in the adult cattle ration. newlineThe egg production, egg mass and body weight gain of layers were higher in S20 group where 20 per cent CP of conventional concentrate was replaced with the CP of the SBT cake. FCR in respect of egg mass as well as biological performance of the layer was found better in S20 treatment group. It was noticed that, as the level of SBT cake increased beyond 20 per cent, the biological performance of the layers declined though the quality traits of eggs were not affected by replacement of SBT cake at any level. It was revealed that replacement of CP of conventional layer feed with SBT cake CP up-to 20 per cent level was economic for layer production. Higher body weight gain and better balance of nutrient in calves was observed in SBT50 group where 50 per cent CP of the traditional CGR was replaced with the SBT cake CP. Better FCR of calves was found in SBT50 group, hence, can be considered as the highest dose of replacement with SBT cake CP in CGR. Higher microbial population in older calves was found in T2 group, where 50 per cent CP of the traditional adult calves ration was replaced with the CP of SBT cake. Better rumen metabolites… Advisors/Committee Members: Sharma, V. K..

▼ The occurrence of antibiotics in natural water bodies have concerned the scientific community because of the potential development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Lincomycin is a lincosamide antibiotic used in the Saskatchewan swine industry for infection treatment, prevention, and possibly weight gain. The dose recommended for swine contains 22 g of lincomycin per metric ton of feed. Due to partial metabolization, part of the lincomycin is excreted through manure. It has been reported that after 5 weeks of storage, 74 % of this compound is degraded by natural processes in the manure. Therefore, it is important to remove the remaining lincomycin from manure before its application to land. Adsorption on activated carbons and zeolites was used for removing lincomycin from water and synthetic manure. For activated carbons, lincomycin adsorption was greater at solution initial pH 10, above the lincomycin’s pKa (7.8), than at initial neutral pH of 6.5. On the other hand, increasing the pH value reduced the adsorption capacity in the natural zeolite. The presence of NaCl did not affect the adsorption capacity of activated carbons because non-electrostatic interactions controlled the process. Conversely, for natural zeolite, increasing ionic strength decreased the adsorption capacity, probably, because the cationic exchange process was affected. From the thermodynamic characterization, it was determined that the adsorption, on both activated carbons and zeolites, was endothermic and spontaneous. The better performance adsorbents were evaluated in the removal of lincomycin from synthetic and real manure. In synthetic manure, the adsorption capacities were similar to the ones found at pH 10 in deionized water. The lack of solids and compounds competing for active sites, in the synthetic manure formulation, contributed to the unaltered adsorption capacities. On the other hand, in the real manure, due to competition and the presence of solids, the concentration of activated carbon used in the experiments with deionized water (50 mg/L) was insufficient for separating lincomycin. Different doses of activated carbon were tested and the simplified background equivalent compound model was used for predicting the lincomycin removal efficiency based on the used adsorbent dose. Activated carbon 1240 showed higher lincomycin adsorption capacity than F400 in real manure. As a comparison, for 60% lincomycin removal, doses of 900 mg/L and 1300 mg/L of 1240 and F400 can be used, respectively.

▼ Career-building competitions, such as collegiate livestock evaluation, claim to enhance writing and speaking skills, confidence in making decisions, teamwork, and critical thinking skills of participants, yet there is limited data to validate these claims. The aim of this study was to assess and record the role participating on a collegiate livestock team might play in developing critical thinking skills. The Watson-Glaser™ II Critical Thinking Appraisal (WGCTA) exam provided a way to objectively assess and record the critical thinking skills of collegiate livestock evaluators at two community colleges and two universities. Demographic information was obtained from 84 study participants to describe the characteristics of collegiate livestock evaluation. Although no statistically significant correlations were found between the demographic components and WGCTA scores, university participants recorded higher WGCTA mean scores in comparison to community college evaluators (P = 0.0019). The primary objective of this study was to assess the critical thinking level of collegiate livestock evaluation team members. The mean WGCTA score for all evaluators was (M = 20.92, SD = 4.65) out of a possible 40. The overall mean of community college participants (M = 19.30, SD = 3.52) and university participants (M = 22.39, SD = 5.08) was tabulated. In this study, male participants recorded higher mean WGCTA scores (M = 21.13, SD = 4.90) than females’ (M = 20.56, SD = 4.25); although a difference of 0.57 was recorded, a t-test concluded there was no significant statistical difference between the total raw critical thinking scores across genders. Participants with a GPA between 3.0–3.49 recorded the highest mean score in this study (M = 21.47, SD = 4.99), followed by those with a GPA of 3.5 and greater (M = 20.85, SD = 4.39), while participants with a GPA less than 2.9 recorded the lowest WGCTA mean (M = 19.00, SD = 1.42). A Pearson product-moment correlation was computed and identified a positive correlation between Top 10 individual finishes and the number of Top 10 finishes in oral reasons (r² = 0.84, n = 84, p < .0001). A positive correlation was discovered between Top 10 oral reason finishes and the number of contests attended (r² = 0.66, n = 84, p < .0001). Additionally, a positive correlation existed between Top 10 individual finishes and the number of contests attended (r = 0.59, n = 84, p < .0001). Likewise, as the total number of contests attended increased, the number of Top 10 finishes in oral reasons and Top 10 finishes individually increased. The mean WGCTA score for all livestock evaluators in this study was (M = 20.92, SD = 4.65) out of a possible 40, which positions collegiate livestock evaluators in the 22nd percentile of the 3–4 years of college norm group. These results contrast the findings of previous work, where participants from collegiate evaluation teams recorded higher critical thinking skills than non-evaluators. The results of this study indicate the need to incorporate various training activities to… Advisors/Committee Members: Skaggs, Chris L (advisor), Forrest, David (committee member), Ramsey, Shawn (committee member), Rayfield, John (committee member).

▼ Intensification of farming operations and increased nutrient application rates have led to higher crop yields and greater food security. At the same time, widespread use of commercial nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilizers and large-scale livestock production have led to unintended environmental consequences, including eutrophication of both coastal and inland waters, threats to drinking water, and increased production of N2O, a potent greenhouse gas. In the past, crop and livestock production were typically more integrated, allowing most livestock to be fed by local crops, and most livestock manure to be applied directly to nearby cropland. Under current intensive agriculture practices, however, there is frequently a spatial decoupling of crops and livestock, leading to hot spots of manure production and a lack of opportunities for cost-efficient and environmentally sensitive disposal. In recent years, there has also been increased interest in the use of both farm and regional-scale bioreactors to convert excess manure to energy, thus exploiting a renewable energy source and increasing the potential to recycle animal waste. In the present work, I develop a spatially distributed optimization approach to identify hotspots of manure production, and, using both economic and environmental criteria, evaluate the economic feasibility of (1) transporting manure for spreading on cropland to meet established nutrient requirements, and (2) constructing biogas reactors to process excess manure in areas where long-range transport is found to be infeasible. This work is focused on manure redistribution, and potential for biogas construction at the continental US scale. In order to identify the spatial disconnect between livestock and crop production, I developed a gridded data set where each cell was 6 km x 6 km and calculated the crop requirements and manure production in each cell. After finding the P requirements in each cell, I found that 530,000 tonnes of phosphorus in manure was located in areas where, if applied, it would be in excess of the local crop requirements. I then examined the feasibility of transporting manure from excess locations (cells) to other locations to use as fertilizer by formulating an optimization problem to maximize the financial benefits of transporting the manure. Savings from transporting manure was calculated as the financial benefit from buying less mineral fertilizer minus the cost of transporting the manure. The solution to this optimization problem shows that transporting manure was able to reduce the excess phosphorus applied to fields by at least 88% with savings of up to $3 billion USD. Finally, I examined the costs and benefits of using the remaining excess manure (after transportation for fertilizer) as fuel to operate biogas plants. For this, I formulated an optimization model to site biogas plants across the continental US such that net profits from the biogas plants were maximized. Biogas net profits were defined as the money made from …

▼ Antibiotic drugs have been used to combat pathogenic bacteria for over fifty years and have proven to be one of the most valuable tools in preserving human and animal health. With an increase in the use and availability of antibiotics, antibiotic resistance has become a public health concern and has received much attention from government agencies, public interest groups, and the media. There is disagreement within the medical, veterinary, and regulatory communities regarding the veterinary use of antibiotics and associated risks to public health, and it is therefore important to investigate the many facets of antibiotic use and encourage the development of educational programs and resources for all stakeholders. This study focused on the use of a conceptual framework and survey instruments to explore the beliefs, knowledge and practices of veterinarians and to assess the current status of available educational resources pertaining to antibiotic use and antibiotic resistance. The primary purpose of this study was to investigate a wide variety of Pennsylvania veterinarians in order to identify relationships and differences between their perspectives, and facilitate the development of educational programs and strategies to benefit the field of veterinary medicine, animal industry stakeholders, and the public. A non-experimental, descriptive-correlational research design was used to develop this study that focused on the population of all veterinarians licensed to practice medicine in Pennsylvania. Survey instruments were designed to capture the perspectives of two different groups of veterinarians: Group 1 – food/large animal vets, and Group 2 – all other vets. The surveys contained three sections to obtain demographic information, veterinarian perspectives of antibiotic use and antibiotic resistance across five perspectives dimensions (Antibiotic Resistance, Antibiotic Use, Veterinary Clientele, the General Public, and Veterinarian Practices), and perspectives of available educational resources. Veterinarians attending the PVMA Keystone conference completed a total of 66 usable paper surveys, and veterinarians contacted via email listservs completed 284 usable internet-based surveys. Findings indicated that the two groups of veterinarians possessed varied perceptions across the five perspectives dimensions, and that significant differences in perspectives existed (p < .05). Data also indicated that the two groups of veterinarians recommended different types of antibiotic drugs for disease treatment and prevention. Significant relationships existed between the select demographic variables (gender and years post-graduation from veterinary school) and the five perspectives dimensions. Findings also indicated the need for educational materials and resources regarding antibiotic resistance for veterinarians, veterinary staff, veterinary clientele, and the general public; and concluded that veterinarians may be the best resource for educating their staff and clientele.

▼ The economic efficiency related to the use of the range resource is extremely important to an area such as Southeastern Oregon where most of the gross income of the area is obtained from range livestock production; important to the economic progress of the region and to the development of a desirable social structure for the citizenry. The investigation of the decision making problem under conditions of uncertainty implies that the certainty problem can be solved for all uncertain alternatives. The certainty alternatives are admissible only when the economic efficiency criterion is met. The criterion used in this study for decision making under uncertainty involved maximizing expected utility through the use of a multivariate Bayesian statistical model. The uncertain states of nature were next year’s cattle price and forage production. The optimal strategy involved the structure of the cattle inventory. A set of equations was developed which generate the input-output coefficients and the objective function values for a linear program solution for any cattle inventory system with respect to expected calving percentage, death loss, replacement policy, cattle weights and prices, and for any number of time increments. A set of homogeneous livestock inventory systems were defined such that a linear program model can be used to determine the optimal inventory structure under certainty conditions. The link between the resource equation system and the linear program improves the feasibility of effectively getting large volumes of budgeted ranch data into an optimizing framework. Primary data were used to establish costs and returns and the land use structure for representative units. Despite the variance in physical structure that exist among the ranch population ranch units, there are certain consistencies for which some general results can be inferred: 1)Under conditions of certainty with respect to price and forage productions, the optimal livestock inventory structure for the study area would tend toward the production of yearling and other steer beef. The study area ranch units tend toward the production and sale of calve beef. It is postulated that this discrepancy between what "should be" and "what is" is a result of the dependency of the ranch unit on public lands. The public land input is commensurate with an administrative definition rather than the physical production relationship. This difference is defined as a misallocation and the models developed can be used to quantify this misallocation. This condition is independent of the present public grazing fee structure. 2)The primary data indicate that the area could absorb an increase of 20 percent in the total spring, summer, and fall range forage with substantially the present resource structure. Range improvements have an expected marginal value product of $3.00 per animal unit month. 3)It is meaningful through the use of the models developed to think in terms of a general population utility function for purposes… Advisors/Committee Members: Brown, William G.

▼ ABSTRACT Livestock graze more than a quarter of earth’s land surface. This is generally considered detrimental to wildlife, but grazing can sometimes have positive effects as well. Rangelands also provide vital habitat for wildlife outside of protected areas. Consequently, conservation efforts are increasingly aimed at managing land for wildlife-livestock coexistence. However, much is still unknown about how wildlife respond to livestock grazing. Chapter 1 is a systematic review of the literature examining evidence for positive and negative effects of livestock grazing on wildlife around the world. A number of big patterns emerge, but also significant gaps in current data. Most studies have been conducted in North America and Europe on birds and mammals, and there is a strong need for more research in the developing world, on a wider range of species. In the following chapters, my work on cattle and wild ungulates in Africa attempts to address some of those gaps. Chapters 2 and 3 are methods papers that provide the foundation for the field studies discussed in chapters 4 and 5. In Chapter 2, I developed a method for using low-cost GPS loggers to track cattle movements, quantify variation in intensity across a study area, and assess the impact of cattle on vegetation. This tracking can provide important insights and guide management decisions. Chapter 3 describes a method for analyzing camera trap data to quantify wildlife use of a site, especially for social animals like ungulates that often live in groups of varying sizes. Chapters 4 and 5 present results on effects of cattle grazing on rangelands in an integrated livestock-wildlife system in Kenya. Chapter 4 analyzes the effects of cattle movements and grazing intensity on forage quantity and quality. While grazing does remove grass biomass, it can also stimulate new growth and “green-up” after rain leading to improved grass quality. Chapter 5 then discusses the responses of a suite of wild grazers to cattle grazing. Grazing may benefit small species, especially ruminants, whereas large buffalo require tall grass. As non-ruminants, zebras are able to utilize a wide range of habitats but may benefit from cattle-induced grass green-up. Advisors/Committee Members: Rubenstein, Daniel I (advisor).

▼ Infections of sheep with gastrointestinal nematodes of the Order Strongylida are of major socioeconomic importance, as they can cause significant disease and are associated with substantial losses to the livestock industry worldwide. The specific diagnosis of infections with these parasites is important for studying their biology, epidemiology, directly supports parasite control strategies, which assists in maintaining the productivity and profitability of the sheep industry, globally. However, current routine diagnostic techniques have limitations, in sensitivity and/or specificity, which hamper efforts to investigate the epidemiology of key species. In addition, with widespread problems with drug resistance in gastrointestinal nematodes of sheep, there is a major need for advanced methods of diagnosis to monitor the emergence and spread of such resistance in different species of parasites. DNA-based approaches of diagnosis can overcome the disadvantages of traditional methods. The ultimate goal of the present thesis was to establish and assess real-time PCR assays for the diagnosis of infections with key species/genera of sheep gastrointestinal nematodes, in order to circumvent the limitations in performance of conventional assays. The thesis consists of a literature review, three result chapters, describing original research findings, and a general discussion. In Chapter 1, a detailed review of the current literature revealed that the epidemiology of sheep gastrointestinal nematodes in Australia has been well studied, but that information is outdated and inadequate. Additionally, a review of traditional diagnostic procedures highlighted the limitations of these techniques, particularly in regards to their cost, labour requirement and sensitivity or specificity of the results using such methods. Therefore, the main aims of the present thesis were: (i) to critically assess a recently developed microscopic-molecular method for the diagnosis of naturally acquired gastrointestinal infections in sheep, (ii) to apply this method to screen large numbers of samples collected over a wide geographical area in Australia, including the estimation of the prevalence of particular nematode species and genera, (iii) to evaluate this method as a tool to support the detection of drug resistance in particular species or genera of strongylid nematodes, in conjunction with faecal egg count reduction testing (FECRT), and (iii) to extend this work to develop a practical, automated, high throughput platform for routine diagnosis. In Chapter 2, a large number of faecal samples from sheep with naturally acquired infections were collected from nine different localities within Victoria, Australia and tested by the microscopic-molecular assay for the presence of infections with Haemonchus contortus, Teladorsagia circucmcincta, Trichostrongylus spp., Chabertia ovina and Oesophagostomum venulosum.
