Organic Farming
Abstract: Organic farming is an agricultural production management system that excludes all synthetic off-farm inputs and instead relies on on-farm agronomic, biological, and mechanical practices. This sustainable approach focuses on methods such as crop rotations, the use of crop residues, animal manures, off-farm organic waste, and mineral-grade rock additives to maintain soil fertility and health. Organic farming also employs biological systems for nutrient mobilization and plant protection, reducing or eliminating the …

Successful Treatment of Clinical Ketosis in Dairy Cattle
Abstract: Ketosis is a post-parturient metabolic disease encountered in high yielders due to imbalance in production and feeding leading to gluconeogenesis along with formation of abnormally high levels of ketone bodies. The disorder is particularly seen within the first few weeks after calving. It arises due to a negative energy balance when energy demands for milk production exceed dietary energy intake, leading to excessive mobilization of body fat reserves and resulting …
