“…One exception was the LD service, which displayed an increase in clustering between the PC and SW scales. This is likely due to the clustering of water sources in only a few catchments or sub-watersheds and the high water requirements of large livestock, such as cattle, increased their density near water source sites in the research area [50]. These results support the hypothesis that certain ES may have similar spatial distributions at different spatial scales, and the cluster effect of ES supply may be caused by aggregate geographical endowment [28,51].…”

Spatial scale plays a crucial role in the assessment and management of ecosystem services (ES), yet explicit information for identifying and understanding the scale effect on ES supply remains limited. In an attempt to detect scale effect on ES supply from a comprehensive perspective, this study developed a framework for integrating scale effect in three aspects, including individual ES patterns, pairwise ES interactions, and ecosystem service bundles (ESB). The framework was tested in Xilinhot, a prairie landscape city of Inner Mongolia, at four different levels of spatial scale. The results indicated that, most ES showed a decreasing clustering at coarser scales in terms of spatial pattern. At the same time, coarser scales resulted in fewer trade-offs and stronger synergies between pairwise ES. The identification of ESB varied greatly with scale, and this change reflected in the composition of ES variables and spatial distribution of bundles. We attributed the scale effect of the above three aspects to differences in social-ecological factors and their driving mechanisms at different scales. This comprehensive framework could support local managers to coordinate the management of multiple ES at different scales.

“…Outro ponto importante a ser considerado é que os ruminantes podem ser alimentados com resíduos e coprodutos industriais, gerando alimentos de alto valor biológico a partir de produtos que não seriam aproveitados na alimentação humana (Andreini et al, 2019). Do mesmo modo, a comparação entre os sistemas produtivos intensivos com extensivos deve ser realizada com cautela e observando alguns fatores relevantes.…”

O Brasil figura entre os principais produtores de carne bovina, sendo o principal exportador deste alimento e detentor do segundo maior rebanho mundial. A produção de carne bovina brasileira, frequentemente vêm sendo associada como geradora de grande impacto ambiental, porém as particularidades do sistema de produção brasileiro baseado em pastagens costuma não ser levado em consideração. Em função destes fatos o objetivo desta revisão bibliográfica foi de reunir informações e discutir o passivo ambiental associado aos sistemas de produção de bovinos de corte no Brasil. Foi possível identificar, que há uma grande variação nas emissões entre os sistemas produtivos de acordo com a localização geográfica. A produção de bovinos em pastagens bem manejadas, bem como o emprego de algumas tecnologias como a suplementação, seja com alimentos volumosos ou concentrados visando reduzir o vazio forrageiro podem reduzir significativamente o passivo ambiental desta atividade. A emissão de gases do efeito estufa pela bovinocultura de corte brasileira é semelhante ou até mesmo inferior à dos demais países.

“…Further beef cattle reproductive parameters observed in this study is the calf crop percentage, where the production system is significantly greater CLFS significantly different from the LFS and the CLS. Ideally calf crop percentage should be more than 85% (Andreini et al, 2018;Troxel et al, 2015), but in reality the calf crop percentage contained in three different production systems as well as overall program SPR is less than the ideal value.…”

The purpose of this research was to assess the reproductive performance of beef cattle based on different production systems. Survey research was carried out in Margasari Subdistrict, Tegal Regency, Central Java Province, in 13 farmer groups (a total of 188 breeders and 557 beef cattle) who took shelter in the SPR Program The qualitative and quantitative design framework is used to obtain comprehensive data. The questionnaire was used to get data and respondents determined by census method. SPSS software is used to analyze data. The results showed that 38.46% of farmer groups implemented a crop-livestock-system (CLS), 30.77% of farmer groups implemented a livestock-forestry system (LFS), and 30.77% of farmer groups implemented a crop-livestock-forestry-system (CLFS) in producing beef cattle. The results of the present study were significantly (P<0.05) there were differences in each reproductive performance parameter (BCS, S / C, CR, CI, and CC), which was observed in each beef production system (CLFS, CLS, and LFS). The results of this study also provide an overview of the simultaneous effects on the application of the production system to the reproductive performance of beef cattle. Although there has been certain variation between the production systems, the reproductive performance of the observed beef cattle has not been satisfactory. Improving nutrition management in cattle is needed to realize successful reproductive performance.
