Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book, a comprehensive analysis spanning nearly 50 years, examines the relationship between livestock and humans in the United States. It reveals the significant increase in meat, poultry, and dairy consumption per capita from 1910 onward, coupled with a reduction in the feed consumed to produce these foods. The author's meticulous examination of feed-conversion efficiency illuminates the continuous improvements in livestock, feeds, and management practices, which have been driven by collaborations between experts in agronomy, animal breeding, nutrition, economics, and farm management. These advances have resulted in both substantial economic benefits for farmers and a more abundant food supply for consumers. The book astutely shows that as the number of horses and mules declined, other livestock populations flourished, leading to a significant shift in feed utilization. It also highlights the increased efficiency of feed use, resulting in more output per unit of feed. The insights provided in this book are vital for understanding the intricate relationship between livestock production and human sustenance, emphasizing the importance of sustainable practices to ensure a secure food supply for future generations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
