It starts with a consideration of animal welfare science and its application to the management of cattle and moves through to discussions of the challenges and opportunities for providing good welfare for cattle in farming and husbandry systems across the globe. The first section comprises three chapters that discuss the social, behavioural and physiological methods that can be used to assess welfare in cattle. The second section considers the welfare challenges of beef and dairy cattle in extensive and intensive systems. The third section details welfare challenges such as at slaughter, during handling and in the growing period and details solutions such as the use of sensors and application of animal breeding techniques. The final section addresses welfare challenges and solutions in achieving sustainability, in smallholder farms in Africa and new entrant dairying in Asia and cow shelters in India. This work makes a valuable contribution to the field of animal welfare and modern livestock farming. It is a must-read for researchers and students, veterinarians as well as industry personnel and informed farmers and producers. 410 0$aAnimal welfare (Springer);$x3091-3497$v23 606 $aVeterinary medicine 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aAnimal welfare$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aPhysiology 606 $aAgricultural genome mapping 606 $aVeterinary Science 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aAnimal Ethics 606 $aAnimal Physiology 606 $aAgricultural Genetics 615 0$aVeterinary medicine. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aAnimal welfare$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aPhysiology. 615 0$aAgricultural genome mapping. 615 14$aVeterinary Science. 615 24$aAgriculture. 615 24$aAnimal Ethics. 615 24$aAnimal Physiology. 615 24$aAgricultural Genetics. 676 $a636.08/32 676 $a636.20832 702 $aHaskell$b Marie 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910763597403321 996 $aCattle Welfare in Dairy and Beef Systems$93601313 997 $aUNINA
