Synopsis
Created for sophomore - senior level undergraduate courses that deal with farm animal well-being, with perspectives on stress, behavior, and environmental design. Also an ideal supplementary text in such agriculture courses as Farm Animal Behavior, Farm Animal Production, and Environmental Management for Farm Animals. Focusing on three major areas of consideration (physical, dietary, and social) required to successfully maintain a balanced, low-stress environment for farm animals, this comprehensive survey discusses the broad range of environmental needs of animals, how these needs are met, and why providing an adequate environment is critical to animal well-being as well as economics in animal enterprises. An excellent reference for livestock producers and all professionals serving the animal industry., Offers a review of considerations relating to public and industry concerns about farm animal care and well-being, and includes an overview of historical aspects of the animal welfare issue. The text aims to help students understand principles of stress physiology, behaviour and environmental design for farm animals, and shows how these relate to the physical and mental states of animals, and their total well-being. It provides coverage of both theoretical and applied fundamentals in relation to physical, dietary and social needs of major species of farm animals.
