The Technical Efficiency of Wildfire Suppression in Alberta, Canada: A Stochastic Frontier Analysis
DownloadFall 2021
Wildfire management agencies are increasingly interested in the efficiency of wildfire suppression as they work to protect human lives and communities from wildfire damages under constrained management budgets. In Alberta, climate change is expected to increase the length of the wildfire season...

Blasting is widely used in mining operations as the primary comminution process to reduce the in-situ rock into fragmented material suitable for the subsequent transport and processing. The energy used is released from an explosive by detonation and transferred to the rock mass via a shock front...

Analytical considerations and biology of milk conjugated linoleic acid synthesis in the bovine
DownloadSpring 2010
Biosynthesis of milk conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a component of milk fat with demonstrated health benefits, requires a dietary source of PUFA. Even with PUFA supplementation, milk CLA is highly variable. Therefore, this study was aimed at identifying factors responsible for the variations in...

The effects of broiler breeder dietary energy and protein during rearing and dietary energy level of lay diets on egg composition, offspring performance and carcass yield were evaluated. Pullets were fed a diet containing high ME (2,736 kcal/kg; HEREAR), or low ME (2,528 kcal/kg; LEREAR) combined...

Fall 2016
Broiler breeders are feed restricted to control growth and increase the production of settable eggs. However, the consecutive need for the deposition and mobilization of nutrients, due the feeding and fasting cycles those birds are submitted to, is not a efficient process. Additionally, the less...

This project researched the effects of pullet-phase feed restriction methodology or management and hen-phase diet fortification on female broiler breeder BW and carcass trait uniformity as well as on performance of the broiler offspring. Feed treatments had a significant effect on female BW and...

Impacts of Environmental Temperature and Dietary Energy on Core Body Temperature and Efficiency in Broiler Breeder Females
DownloadFall 2013
The effects of environmental temperature, dietary energy, housing system, time of feeding and day length on core body temperature (CBT) dynamics in broiler breeder females was studied in a series of experiments. Environmental temperatures within the range of 15 to 27˚C resulted in a CBT of 39.8...
