Afforestation of agricultural land as a measure of management and development of rural areas
(2003)The key measures for the environmental protection of agricultural land in the EEC countries, constitute accompanying measures of reformed Common Agricultural Policy. These measures concern the Reg. 2078/92/EEC about "crop ... -
Bioaugmentation and rhizosphere-assisted biodegradation as strategies for optimization of the dissipation capacity of biobeds
(2017)Biobeds are on-farm biodepuration systems whose efficiency rely on their high pesticide biodegradation capacity. We evaluated two optimization strategies, bioaugmentation and/or rhizosphere-assisted biodegradation, to ... -
Case Report of Transmissible Gastroenteritis Coronavirus Infection Associated with Small Intestine and Brain Lesions in Piglets
(2019)This case study report describes a transmissible gastroenteritis coronavirus (TGEV) infection presented in a commercial pig herd. The clinical signs of infection appeared in newborn piglets, including medium morbidity and ... -
Delineation of management zones in an apple orchard: Correlations between yield and soil properties
(2011)In the present paper the yield and soil spatial variability in an apple orchard was studied. Apples were collected manually and placed in plastic bins along the tree rows. Yield per ten trees was weighted and the geographical ... -
Environmental assessment of precision farming techniques in a pear orchard
(2017)Pears require a substantial number of inputs for satisfactory yield and quality. High inputs increase costs, reducecompetitiveness and induce environmental problems. In thecurrent study the environmental profile of a pear ... -
Evaluation of an on-farm method to assess colostrum IgG content in hyperprolific sows
(2022)The colostrum quality (immunoglobulin content) is one of the most challenging aspects for hyperprolific sows in the modern pig industry. The objective of this study was to evaluate relationships among sow body condition ... -
Evaluation of various commodities for the development of the yellow mealworm, Tenebrio molitor
(2020)We evaluated the suitability of forty-four commodities (i.e., cereal flours and meals, non-flour, cereal commodities, legumes and various commodities of vegetative and animal origin) as oviposition and feeding substrates ... -
Following the route of veterinary antibiotics tiamulin and tilmicosin from livestock farms to agricultural soils
(2022)Veterinary antibiotics (VAs) are not completely metabolized in the animal body. Hence, when animal excretes are used as soil manures, VA residues are dispersed with potential implications for environmental quality and human ... -
FutureFarm: Addressing the needs of the European farm of the future: Findings of the first two years
(2010)In the future, European farmers will have to effectively manage information on and off their farms to improve economic viability and to reduce environmental impact. To this end, an integrated information system is needed ... -
Hazardous toxic metal(loid)s in top- and deep-soils during the transformation of aquaculture ponds restored to farmland
(2022)The pollution risks due to the soil migration of toxic metal(loid)s (TMs) are a greatly hazard to ecological environment as well as animal and human health. Previous studies have primarily focused on surface contamination ... -
Histopathological Lesions Accompanied with First-Time Isolation of a PRRSV-2 Strain in Greece
(2020)Genotype 2 strains of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus (PRRSV-2) have been reported sporadically in Europe. Even if, PRRSV-2 reported to be genetically homogenous in Europe due to the introduction of an ... -
Isolation and characterization of Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) from milk of dairy goats under low-input farm management in Greece
(2020)The presence of Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) in raw milk is a challenge for veterinarians and public health professionals. In this study, we investigated the presence and clonality of ... -
Maintaining production while reducing local and global environmental emissions in dairy farming
(2020)While milk is a major agricultural commodity, dairy farming also supports a large share of global beef production. In Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies of dairy farming systems, dairy-beef production is often ignored or ... -
No good vaccination quality without good control: the positive impact of a hatchery vaccination service program
(2020)Vaccination is currently one of the most relevant control strategies in poultry production to reduce infectious disease–induced economic losses and decrease antimicrobial use. Besides intrinsic vaccine efficacy, a proper ... -
Short communication: Bovine mastitis caused by a multidrug-resistant, mcr-1-positive (colistin-resistant), extended-spectrum β-lactamase–producing Escherichia coli clone on a Greek dairy farm
(2020)We performed a survey aimed at analyzing milk samples collected from cows with mastitis for the presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)–producing Escherichia coli. Single-quarter mastitic milk samples obtained ... -
Streptococcus spp. From bulk-tank milk and milking machine teatcups on small ruminant farms, and factors potentially associated with their isolation
(2020)The objectives of this work were (a) to determine the presence of streptococci in samples from small ruminant dairy farms (bulk-tank milk and, where possible, teatcup swabs), (b) to investigate the potential adverse effects ... -
Study of potential environmental factors predisposing ewes to subclinical mastitis in Greece
(2019)Objectives of the work presented herewith were to investigate association of prevalence of subclinical mastitis with environmental (climatic and topographic) factors and to identify factors potentially predisposing ewes ... -
Use of geographical information system and ecological niche modelling for predicting potential space distribution of subclinical mastitis in ewes
(2019)Objective was to recognise areas potentially of high risk for increased frequency of subclinical mastitis in ewes. Milk samples were collected, for bacteriological and cytological examination, from 2198 clinically healthy ... -
Zoonotic Problems Reported by Sheep and Goat Farmers and Factors Potentially Contributing to the Occurrence of Brucellosis among Them
(2022)The study aimed to investigate the occurrence of zoonotic problems reported by dairy small ruminant farmers in Greece and to study potential associations with socio-demographic characteristics of the farmers and management ...
