| Format | PDF E-Book File Size: Varies Category: Veterinary Nutrition and Production Animal Medicine Specialty: Ruminant Nutrition and Sustainable Livestock Management DESCRIPTION ----------- This comprehensive veterinary textbook provides an evidence-based approach to vitamin supplementation in ruminant production systems, bridging the gap between nutritional science and sustainable farming practices. As the livestock industry faces increasing pressure to improve efficiency while reducing environmental impact, this resource delivers critical insights into how optimized vitamin nutrition can enhance animal health, productivity, and farm sustainability. The text integrates current research on vitamin metabolism in cattle, sheep, and goats with practical strategies for implementing effective supplementation programs that support both animal welfare and economic viability. Written for veterinary professionals working in production animal medicine, this book examines the complex interplay between vitamin nutrition, immune function, reproductive performance, and metabolic efficiency in ruminants. It addresses the unique challenges of vitamin supplementation in grazing and intensive production systems, including factors affecting bioavailability, deficiency diagnosis, and the economic implications of supplementation strategies. The content emphasizes how proper vitamin nutrition contributes to reduced disease incidence, improved feed conversion, lower antimicrobial use, and decreased environmental footprint. This essential reference combines fundamental nutritional biochemistry with field-applicable knowledge, offering veterinarians and nutritionists the tools needed to develop customized vitamin supplementation protocols. The book explores emerging research on vitamin requirements across different production stages, breed variations, and management systems, while providing practical guidance on monitoring nutritional status and evaluating program effectiveness in commercial operations.
