Four environmental chambers housing either 75 (5.5 birds/m\") or 37 turkeys (2.8 birds/m ) were used to study the impact of stocking density on air quality, bird health, and performance under similar per bird ventilation rates (3 L/s per bird). Stocking density had little effect on air quality or...

Cooke, Janice E. K., Blanchet, F. Guillaume, Lusebrink, Inka, Erbilgin, Nadir, Evenden, Maya L.
The mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae, MPB) has killed millions of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) trees in Western Canada and recent range expansion has resulted in attack of jack pine (Pinus banksiana) in Alberta. Establishment of MPB in the Boreal forest will require use of jack...
