One of the major challenges of animal husbandry, in addition to those related to the economic situation and the current energy crisis, is the major contribution of this sector to atmospheric pollution. Awareness of pollution sources and their permanent monitoring in order to ensure efficient management of the farm, with the aim of reducing emissions, is a mandatory issue, both at the macro level of the economic sector and at the micro level, specifically at the level of each individual farm. In this context, the acquisition of consistent environmental data from the level of each farm will constitute a beneficial action both for the decision-making system of the farm and for the elaboration or adjustment of strategies at the national level. The current paper proposes a case study of air pollutants in a cattle farm for different seasons (winter and summer) and the correlation between their variation and microclimate parameters. A further comparison is made between values estimated using the EMEP (European Monitoring and Evaluation Programme, 2019) methodology for air pollutant emission and values measured by sensors in a hybrid decision support platform for farms. Results show that interactions between microclimate and pollutant emissions exist and they can provide a model for the farm's activities that the farmer can manage according to the results of the measurements.

Study of average performances in a population is very important. Regarding to a population, the average of phenotypic value is equal with average of genotypic value. That minds that the studies of the average value of characters offer us an idea about the population genetic level. The biological material is represented by 177 Hucul horse from HROBY bloodline divided in 6 stallion families analyzed at 18, 30 and 42 months old, owned by Lucina Hucul stood farm. The average performances for thoracic perimeter was 149.58 cm. at 18 months, 160.21 cm. at 30 months old and 166.97 cm. at 42 months old. We can observe a good growth rate from one age to another and significant differences between sexes. The average performances of the character are between characteristic limits of the breed.

This is another just part for an ample study regarding evolution of species from Cervidae family in Romania. The programme is developed in collaboration with Romanian Hunter's Federation. The main purpose of this study is to reveal the reality, to find causes and to elaborate long term strategies in direction of biodiversity conservation, especially for wild game. In the last years the Romanian hunters indicate that the number of roe deer population decreasing, because of intensive agriculture and also because of high number of predators (bear, wolf and lynx population). We analyze the official data from national evaluation of sedentary game in Calarasi County. Hunting territories in this area are managed by National Forest Authority, county associations of hunters and other associations for conservation of biodiversity and management of hunting territories. We analyse cervidae real livestock between by counties, by sexes, and in comparison with optimal livestock (maximal number of individuals who can leave in a hunting area, without causing damage to the agricultural fields or in the forest). Considering the new agricultural technics and technologies it is relatively normal to find a numerical depreciation of wild game. But for cervidae populations, in analysed period in Calarasi County, we find a good and representative population. The differences between what can be saw in hunting territories and what is reported was analyzed. We can say that the evaluation, the official evaluation, is not perfect and we must work together to know exactly the livestocks and to develop a long term strategy for conservation of biodiversity.

Study of important ancestors give us information about breeding methodic in analized population (origins, selection on ascendants) and also about possibilities of breed evolution (small number of ancestors, maintaining the genetic similarity with remarkable ancestors or the preference for descendants of certain individuals, may lead to inbreeding and genetic drift).In pedigrees of Gidran horse, from Tulucesti studfarm, was identified 104 male ancestors. It was ordered by three criteria: the kinship with sire stallions, the relationship with brood mares, and with the population, as a whole (reproductive nucleus, stallions and mares) at that time. The results highlight the fact that the kinship share of male ascendants in the population is between 0% and 19.46%. Eight stallions have a higher genetic resemblance to the population, ranging from 15.84% to 19.46%. The relatively small differences between sire stallions reveal concerns for maintaining a large number of males, necessary to avoid inbreeding and to ensure a normal population evolution under reproductive isolation.

Generally cattle produce 95% of the total milk from the market, over 33% of meat production, 90% of all raw hides and 75% of the livestock manure. Romania can ensure forage for seven millions cattle. At present, there are 2.162.013 cattle, of which 1.231.857 dairy cows. Based on this situation requires a review of breeding strategies and the distribution of species and breeds in different geographical areas. The preservation of natural resources as a support for biological, social and economic life is the key for sustainable development of society. In last years it has imported and other breeds of cattle. Montbéliarde breed has adapted very well to the climatic conditions and plant resources in our country. In France, the country of origin, it is considered a milk breed with the average milk yield about 7500 kg/normal lactation (305 days),3.8 to 3.9% fat and 3.45% protein. The total number of Montbeliarde dairy cows is at present in Romania over 2000, of which 676 animals in official control of production. The current study was conducted in three farms in the south of Romania. In these farms animals have been brought from France, heifers in pregnancy months IV-VII. After the end of the first lactation, production data were recorded and statistically analyzed. The statistical analysis was performed on a number of 379 primiparous cows. It was noted that the main parameters of production showed variations between farms. Thus, the duration of lactation had values between 314-330 days, with implications on the quantity of milk and the reproduction activity. Regarding the average quantity of milk per cow values were recorded between 5646 and 6320 kg milk and fat percentage of 4.14, respectively 3.80%. The production values are influenced by many factors (conditions of feeding, milking, sheltering) and they influence the total quantity of milk for processing, and quality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
