Focus and Scope

This journal covers a wide range of topics related to animal husbandry and sustainable farming, focusing on practices that promote ecological balance, resource efficiency, and the well-being of both animals and farmers. It emphasizes the need for sustainable approaches in the management of livestock, crop production, and integrated farming systems, as well as the importance of minimizing the environmental impact of agricultural practices.

Scope:

  1. Animal Husbandry Practices: Research on the breeding, feeding, and management of livestock species for optimal health, productivity, and welfare. This includes cattle, poultry, sheep, goats, pigs, and other farm animals.

  2. Sustainable Livestock Systems: Studies on integrating sustainability principles into livestock production, including resource-efficient feeding systems, waste management, and the use of renewable energy in animal farming.

  3. Animal Health and Welfare: Research on the health and welfare of farm animals, including disease prevention, ethical treatment, and the implementation of humane farming practices.

  4. Integrated Farming Systems: Exploration of integrated approaches to farming that combine crop and livestock production, promoting ecological balance, biodiversity, and efficient resource use.

  5. Organic and Regenerative Farming: Research on organic farming practices and regenerative agriculture techniques that restore soil health, enhance biodiversity, and reduce the need for synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.

  6. Sustainable Feed and Nutrition: Studies on sustainable feed production, alternative feed sources, and optimizing livestock nutrition to improve both animal performance and environmental outcomes.

  7. Waste Management and Circular Agriculture: Research on the effective management of manure and other farm waste, including composting, biogas production, and other methods to reduce environmental pollution and recycle nutrients.

  8. Climate-Smart Agriculture: Investigations into farming practices that reduce the agricultural sector’s contribution to climate change, such as through carbon sequestration, improved water management, and climate-resilient crops and livestock.

  9. Agroecology and Biodiversity: Research on farming practices that promote biodiversity, soil health, and ecosystem services, focusing on agroecological principles in animal husbandry and crop management.

  10. Policy and Economics of Sustainable Farming: Exploration of policies, incentives, and economic models that support the adoption of sustainable farming practices, including market access, subsidies, and regulatory frameworks.
