“…Furthermore, in a study using 12,921 breeding ducks, their contact with air pollutants, including fine particulate matter (PM2.5), coarse particulate matter (PM10), and total suspended particulate matter (TSP), was reduced, finding that the reduction of PM2.5 was one of the important environmental parameters that affected the productive and reproductive performance of birds (Han et al, 2022).…”

Objetivo do estudo: realizar uma análise ambiental integrada da qualidade do ar, por meio do monitoramento de poluentes atmosféricos, variáveis meteorológicas e composição da avifauna, no município de Gramado, RS. Metodologia: O estudo foi realizado em uma área urbana no município de Gramado/RS. O período amostral ocorreu entre novembro/2021 a outubro/2022. Para a coleta do material particulado (MP2,5 e MP10) foi utilizado um amostrador dicotômico, sendo realizadas 24 coletas. Os dados meteorológicos foram disponibilizados pela estação do INMET. Para o levantamento da avifauna foram realizadas 12 saídas à campo, utilizando-se o método de caminhamento. Originalidade/Relevância: O conhecimento produzido por este estudo pode contribuir como subsídio para estratégias e ações voltadas à melhor qualidade de vida, a saúde e educação ambiental. Principais resultados: Os resultados demonstraram que duas amostras de MP2,5 e seis amostras de MP2,5-10 ficaram em desconformidade com as diretrizes de qualidade do ar estabelecidos pela OMS. Por meio do modelo de regressão linear verificou-se que 83,9% da variação do MP10 é explicada pelo aumento da temperatura máxima. Ao longo do período de amostragens foram registradas a ocorrência de 45 espécies de aves. As maiores riquezas de espécies ocorreram em setembro/2022 (35) e outubro/2022 (32), onde 37,4% da variação do número de aves pode ser explicado pela precipitação. Para os demais dados não houve relação. Contribuições: Os resultados poderão ser utilizados para realização de medidas de promoção da saúde ambiental, prevenção e controle dos fatores de riscos relacionados a qualidade do ar.

“…No scientific evidence is available for the optimum litter depth for Domestic, Muscovy and Mule ducks, but a depth of 10 cm or much less is used in commercial production. Other litter management interventions are the frequency of new litter supply, litter turning, removal of soiled or moist litter, adjustment of ventilation and water source (Raud and Faure, 1994 ; Jones and Dawkins, 2010a ) and litter treatment with acidifiers (Shepherd et al., 2017 ; de Toledo et al., 2020 ) or with fermenting microorganisms (Han et al., 2022 ). Acidifiers reduce the pH, the moisture and ammonia content of the litter (de Toledo et al., 2020 ), while fermenting microorganisms increase the temperature in the house and reduce the emission of ammonia, carbon‐dioxide, hydrogen‐sulphide and dust particles (Han et al., 2022 ).…”

This Scientific Opinion concerns the welfare of Domestic ducks (Anas platyrhynchos domesticus), Muscovy ducks (Cairina moschata domesticus) and their hybrids (Mule ducks), Domestic geese (Anser anser f. domesticus) and Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) in relation to the rearing of breeders, birds for meat, Muscovy and Mule ducks and Domestic geese for foie gras and layer Japanese quail for egg production. The most common husbandry systems (HSs) in the European Union are described for each animal species and category. The following welfare consequences are described and assessed for each species: restriction of movement, injuries (bone lesions including fractures and dislocations, soft tissue lesions and integument damage and locomotory disorders including lameness), group stress, inability to perform comfort behaviour, inability to perform exploratory or foraging behaviour and inability to express maternal behaviour (related to prelaying and nesting behaviours). Animal-based measures relevant for the assessment of these welfare consequences were identified and described. The relevant hazards leading to the welfare consequences in the different HSs were identified. Specific factors such as space allowance (including minimum enclosure area and height) per bird, group size, floor quality, characteristics of nesting facilities and enrichment provided (including access to water to fulfil biological needs) were assessed in relation to the welfare consequences and, recommendations on how to prevent the welfare consequences were provided in a quantitative or qualitative way.

“…The fermentation bed system (FBS) is an animal housing system of environmental protection, a safe and effective ecological pig raising mode combined with the modern microbial fermentation technology [ 38 ]. These systems mainly focus on reducing animal waste pollution, decreasing incidence, protecting animal welfare, improving animal product quality, and increasing breeding benefits, and can be used for recycling and sustainable production [ 39 ], as they are cheaper to establish compared to conventional confinement systems. This technology is based on the repeated spreading of sawdust, rice husk, corn stalks, or other agricultural material in indoor booths.…”

“…In addition, other related studies showed that it was conducive to improving the sensory and edible quality for animal raising with FBS; meanwhile, FBS shows advantages in the reduction of NH 3 , CH 4 , N 2 O, and CO 2 [ 44 , 45 ]. Different bedding materials could affect the fermentation process of animal manure in FBS, which would affect animals’ feeding environments, health, and production performance [ 39 ]. For example, corn stover has the greatest reduction in NH 3 and wood chips reduce the emissions of CH 4 , N 2 O, and CO 2 from animal feces [ 45 ].…”

Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets. Resource-saving and environmentally friendly industrial structures, production, and living modes are pursued continuously for sustainable ecological development. According to the Second National Pollution-Source Survey, agricultural non-point pollution is still the most important source of the current water pollution. In order to improve the water environment and control the pollution, the meaning and content of the eco-agricultural industrial chain was introduced. Based on this conception, the eco-agricultural industrial chain, integrating a whole circular system with different sessions of crop farming, animal breeding, agricultural product processing, and rural living, was innovatively put forward to control the agricultural non-point pollution and protect the water environment systematically for the first time in this paper. The sustainable development was realized at a large scale from the reduction and harmlessness at the source, resource utilization in the process, and ecological restoration in the end. Core techniques were innovated based on the integration of agricultural industries to achieve the high-quality and green development of agriculture. The system included ecological breeding technologies, ecological cultivation technologies, as well as rural sewage treatment and recycling technologies, in the principle of reduce, reuse, and resource. Based on this, the agricultural production changed from the traditional mode of “resources–products–wastes” to the circulation pattern of “resources–products–renewable resources–products”. Thus, the final aim could be achieved to realize the material’s multilevel use and energy conversion in the system. The eco-agricultural industrial chain technology was proven to be efficient to achieve both the good control of agricultural non-point pollution and an effective improvement in the water quality.
