Animals with multi-compartmented stomachs, also known as ruminants, are adapted to digest cellulosic materials, which constitute the primary expense on ranches and dairies. Industrial byproducts can be repurposed for livestock diets to decrease these costs. Therefore, finding alternative feedstuffs may benefit the economics of livestock production. The goal of this project was to evaluate alternative uses of ruminal waste from commercial abattoirs. This project addressed two primary objectives. First, ruminal fiber as a potential dietary fiber source was evaluated. Second, the potential for preservation of ruminal fluid for later use was assessed. Results for the first objective indicated harvesting rumen waste from slaughterhouses could be beneficial for sustainable livestock production, while reducing the environmental threat posed by disposal of ruminal waste. Nutritional values of rumen waste in relation to other common livestock roughages sources commonly found in ruminant diets are numberical , such as coastal Bermuda grass hay (Cynodon dactylon ) and alfalfa hay (Medicago sativa). Neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL) and crude protein (CP) values were 68.1%, 39.9%, 10.9% and 15%, respectively. Contribution to variance for NDF, ADF, ADL and CP were 97.2%, 97.9%, 95.4% and 19.1%, respectively. In vitro true digestibility (IVTD) and in vitro neutral detergent fiber digestibility (IVNDFD) were 46.2% and 21.6%, respectively. Results from the second objective showed lower degradation of feeds when frozen or lyophilized rumen fluid was used rather than fresh inoculum; however, differences in IVTD and IVNDFD suggest that, in the absence of fresh inocula, preserved rumen fluid may be a viable option. Implications from this study show rumen content could provide nutrients if fed to livestock and rumen microbes preserved (frozen or lyophilized) are still viable and able to degrade feedstuffs. Therefore, further research is needed to assess the consistency of using inoculum from slaughtered cattle and improve the preservation process.

Livestock systems occupy about a third of the planet’s ice-free terrestrial surface area and, in developing countries, serve as an important risk reduction strategy for vulnerable communities. The livestock sector is very sensitive to external disturbances and has just limited capacity to cope with emerging constraints. Recently, Western Balkans were affected by armed conflict after the downfall of the former Yugoslavia. In response to these disturbances, new constraints and development gaps emerged, which the local farmers and breeders had to withstand. Those gaps have widened even further over the time and livestock farming adapted to those changes leading to the abandonment of traditional practices. The main objectives of this thesis were (i) to analyse on a scale of biogeographical regions, taking into account single countries, how the livestock sector is reorganizing, (ii) which constraints are affecting the systems and which set of development options could contribute to their continuity and (iii) how the emerging cow-calf system in different countries diverge in terms of technical efficiency. The livestock sector is now organised on the remains of the communism period and of the conflicts among newly emerging states in the ‘90s. Main perceived constraints are highly related to the economic issues. For the upcoming trends a decrease of participants to the systems, but simultaneously an increase of the number of animals per farm are present. In most cases, the current mean number of animals per farm is below the proposed sustainable level and most of the small and medium farms need to increase their size. The importance of rural development programmes together with the designation and implementation of alternative management practices on both regional and local basis are highlighted as the main development options. In terms of efficiency gaps among the analysed cow-calf farms, smaller and less specialised units operate with the highest estimated result.

A study was carried out to verify the economic viability of a life-cycle production system of beef cattle under high stocking. This system was initially designed for use in research at the school of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, Universidade São Paulo, but this dissertation tried to evaluate the economic viability of this system when applied to commercial livestock. Therefore, ten scenarios were studied. Nine of them were determined by the variation of prices of products, use of own capital and resources from rural finance programs from Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Ecônomico e Social (BNDES). The tenth scenario was based on a predetermined level of prices of products and use of own capital, due to leasing of the area released from the intensification of the production system. The analysis method was the Cash Flow and the applied techniques were: Simple Payback, Discounted Payback, Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR). The system showed to be economically viable for the scenarios that considered the maximum projection of meat prices and for the scenario that considered the leasing area related to the intensification of the production system. Funding from BNDES Rural Credit Program has provided significant improvement in the monetary values and indices used in the analysis.

The thesis work carried out within the Doctoral Course in Agricultural Technology and Biotechnology aimed to emphasize, by the means of a multidisciplinary approach, the role of animal nutrition in a geographical area particularly suited to agriculture and livestock productions such as Centre-South Italy. In inner hilly and mountainous areas, frequently characterized by phenomena of fragility, land degradation and abandonment, it seems essential to analyse the contribution that animal nutrition is able to provide in terms of sustainability of animal production, in order to identify the best strategies to limit the depletion of natural resources, and to enhance the production both from qualitative and quantitative point of view. The thesis work has been developed in five sections. Firstly, the main characteristics and the evolution over a period of thirty years of two pasture areas of the Molise region have been studied, thanks to both literature review and field trials. Pasture is indeed not only an important feed source but also it is involved in the protection of biodiversity as well as it provides ecosystem services. The investigated sites, both in Isernia province, are located in the municipalities of Frosolone, whose transhumance roads have been recognized in 2019 by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage, and in the Montenero Val Cocchiara municipality, awarded by Natura 2000 Network as a Site of Community Interest. In the second Chapter, the cultivation in suitable territories of an innovative variety of tobacco, Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Solaris, internationally patented to produce biofuel has been investigated. Starting from the point of view of circular bioeconomy, the main characteristics of the biomass obtained from the cv. Solaris and its consequent use as innovative forage for animal feed or source of biomethane has been examined. Furthermore, the introduction of Solaris co-products in livestock diet was investigated. Specifically, in Chapter 3, a preliminary study allowed to test the storage attitude of biomass of cv. Solaris through ensiling practice. Then, the effects of the dietary introduction of this innovative forage have been tested on the main parameters of growth and health and welfare status of dairy heifers also monitored in their follow-up. Subsequently, in Chapter 4, a second co-product of cv. Solaris, i.e., seed cake obtained from the cold pressing of tobacco seeds, was included in the diet of growing lambs as a partial substitute of soybean meal, in order to evaluate its effects on the productive performance of the animals. Finally, in the last Chapter the introduction of pea bean in the diet of broilers was tested as an alternative to soybean. Besides evaluating the productive performances of two different genotypes of animals, the two selected diets were also compared from an economic and environmental point of view by the means of the interactive Global Livestock Environmental Assessment Model (GLEAM-i by FAO), to define the trade-off between the best management strategies of breeding and the environment protection. Accordingly, it seems essential that a synergic and multidisciplinary approach is needed in order to achieve more sustainable livestock farming practices ensuring animal welfare and productions, environment protection, and modern livestock enterprise.

Vaccination is one of the most effective strategies for preventing infectious diseases. However, the efficacy of most vaccines is variable, due to genetic variations in the host and probably also to variations in the gut microbiota. Studying the combined effects of these two factors on vaccine response is a novel and integrated strategy. This project was based on the study of 4 lines of laying hens, including both experimental and commercial lines. We studied the impact of a strong disturbance of the intestinal microbiota (by a model of treatment with antibiotics) and of a change in the rearing environment (with access to an outdoor range) on the vaccine response and, more generally, on immunocompetence. To assess animal welfare, we also conducted behavioral studies. The aims of this thesis were: (1) to assess the impact of genetics on gut microbiota, vaccine response, immunocompetence and behavior; (2) to study the impact of microbiota disturbance on these parameters; (3) to assess the impact of outdoor rearing on these parameters. Finally, this work has contributed to the identification of the best levers (genetics, microbiota, rearing environment) that can be combined to raise more robust animals, with better health and optimized welfare
