Cadavers hydrolisis by Biosecuritas
In Significant Impact Groups: Biosecurity \External biosecurity; Cadavers
Species targeted: Pigs;
Age: Not stated;
Summary:
Hydrolysis of death animals is a system for an intermediate storage of cadavers during at least 6 months. The main advantages are: (i) bacterial and virus control in the environment because hydrolysis produce an inactivation of the majority of the pathogens, and (ii) reduce the carcass collection frequency. It is not needed to collect the death animals once or twice per week, with this system the carcass collection is once or twice per year.

Probiotica by Aarhus Universitet
In Significant Impact Groups: Specific alternatives \ Pre-/probiotics
Species targeted: Dairy; Beef;
Age: Young;
Summary:
The article describes as probiotica tested in calves from 4 weeks to 10 weeks old. The calves in the test had a higher level of yeast cells in the intestines, but the insidens of diarrhea was low in both calves fed the probiotic and in calves with out. They have tested 150 calves from 0-4 weeks but the results are not accessible yet.

In Significant Impact Groups: Specific alternatives \ Other
Species targeted: Dairy;
Age: Not stated;
Summary:
The udder cleft incidence on a farm is often underestimated, particularly on farms with a milking robot. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to regularly check the udders of all animals using a telescopic inspection mirror. Udder cleft issues like udder cleft dermatitis or foul udder are often located between the front teats and at the transition of the front quarters and the abdominal wall. Although this condition is well known in the dairy industry, not much research has been performed. This is the first large-scale study that demonstrates the positive effect of the non-antibiotic Intra Repiderma spray on mild udder skin issues. Spraying of the mild udder skin cases every 2 days resulted in 81.8% full skin recovery with a median time for recovery of 4 weeks.

384 Farm Innovation – Cum îmbunătățesc fermierii îngrășarea porcilor cu ajutorul secarei by KWS

In Significant Impact Groups: Feed / gut health \ Feed composition
Species targeted: Pigs;
Age: Young; Adult;
Summary:
Successful fattening of pigs and animal welfare – Andreas von Felde believes that these objectives are not excluded. This farmer from northern Germany grows rye and uses it as feed. He says he needs less fertilizer.
“Rye has a large amount of carbohydrates that are not digested in the small intestine. In short, they feed microorganisms in the small intestine and microflora. ” This produces butyric acid, which has a positive influence on the behavior of animals when they are fattened. Butyric acid is also very effective in killing bacteria such as salmonella.

364 Industry Innovation – LalFilm PRO by by Lallemand

In Significant Impact Groups: Pathogen management \ Biosecurity
Species targeted: Pigs; Poultry; Other;
Age: Different for different species;
Summary:
All microbial species can be biofilmogenic under certain stress conditions, nutrient concentration, colony size and degree of confinement. The exchange of information and gene expressions that characterize the biofilm make it an enemy to be fought as part of the fight against antibiotic resistance. During a webinar organised by Lallemand and Unitec, a method to combat the formation of pathogenic biofilm was presented, exploiting the antagonism between bacteria. LalFilmPRO, Lallemand’s apatogenic biofilm, can be used to reverse the paradigm, using the same weapons as bacteria to extend the hygiene protocol. The exclusive technology is based on the use of specific bacterial strains, with antagonistic efficacy and high adherence power. Bacterial strains have been selected to colonise an environment quickly and uniformly, which can inhibit and antagonise the growth of other species.

353 Health effects of on-farm hatching by WUR (Industry Innovation)

353 Industry Innovation – Health effects of on-farm hatching by WUR

In Significant Impact Groups: Housing and welfare \ New housing systems
Species targeted: Poultry;
Age: Young;
Summary:
Broilers that hatch in the barn show less mortality and have less foot sole lesions. This is shown by research of Wageningen Livestock Research that compares the traditional hatching system to on-farm hatching. The results show that chicks that hatch on farm have a better health. It seems plausible that conditions in early life influence the health and behavior of chicks for a long time. The different outcome systems show no difference in behavior in the pens. However, there are differences in the reaction when the chicks are exposed to a test situation, not only at a young age but also at an older age.

348 Industry Innovation – Mastitis therapy with immune cells by Mastivax

In Significant Impact Groups: AMU reduction strategies \
Species targeted: Dairy;
Age: Adult;
Summary:
A new therapy for mastitis is being developed by Mastivax without the need of using antibiotics. Blood of an infected dairy cow is collected and the immune cells are isolated. The immune cells are then injected into the infected part of the udder. Under laboratory settings it has been demonstrated that the immune cells kill the bacteria causing mastitis. However this procedure needs further research to investigate effectiveness and treatment frequency.

314 Industry Innovation – The Seed Feed and Weed approach to managing intestinal health in drug-free production systems by The Poultry Informed Professional

In Significant Impact Groups: Feed / gut health \ Feeding management
Species targeted: Poultry;
Age: Young; Adult;
Summary:
The three most important legs of an effective intestinal management program include: “seeding” the gut with favourable organisms, “feeding” the favourable organisms and “weeding” out the unfavourable organisms. This involves applying a probiotic/competitive exclusion product as soon after hatch as possible. Adding a suitable organic acid via the drinking water to increasing its concentration in the small intestine and enhance the capacity of the favourable organisms to colonize and rapidly dominate the microbial community of the small intestine. Blocking the attachment mechanism of unfavourable organisms with a type-1 fimbria blocker and thereby reducing their capacity to compete with the favourable organisms in the gut.

254 Industry Innovation – Cow bath by Timmerman

In Significant Impact Groups: Specific alternatives \ Other
Species targeted: Dairy;
Age: Adult;
Summary:
Cows that are stranded on the ground as a result of milk fever, a heavy birth or a fall are helped back into their legs with the use of a warm bath. Water helps the cow to get up because they only weigh 30 percent of their own weight. Muscles are relieved, the pressure decreases and the blood circulation improves. The cow bath is brought to the location together with a tank of hot water. The cow is placed on a mat and pushed into the bath. Then the watertight doors are attached and the water tap opens. The water is 38 degrees and the cow stays in the bath for six hours. The halter is tied so that the cow does not drown. The cow usually stands immediately.
