AB  - This research aimed for the first time to identify the essential welfare
problems on 46 goat dairy farms in Vojvodina,based on the goat AWIN
welfare protocol. The study showed that space allowance per goat was 1.55,
1.86 and 2.50 m2/goat (large, medium, small-sized farms, respectively). Most
farms possessed the soil floor and straw as a flooring material. The small
and medium farms more allowed access to the outdoor area. Contrary,
large-sized farms mostly kept goats in fully housed systems with reduced
opportunities for the goats to express their natural behavior. Management
procedures were significantly different (p < 0.05) between the investigated
farms. Differences were mainly in bedding, feeding and culling strategies.
Low productivity was the main cause of culling in all farm types. Small-sized
farms carried out more often disbudding (42.9%) in comparison with medium
(21.4%) and large-sized ones (14.3%). Group level observation showed
that the main areas of concern were associated with hair coat condition and
kneeling at the feeding rack (p < 0.05). Inadequate BCS, udder asymmetry
and claw overgrowth were frequently recorded. The prevalence of thin and
fat goats was highest in large-sized farms All farm size categories and
management systems showed certain welfare weaknesses. Thus, the findings
highlighted the need for higher implementation of animal welfare
principles and improvement of management techniques to meet the welfare
requirements of dairy goats.

AB  - Harmful gases, such as ammonia (NH3) and carbon dioxide (CO2), affect both birds and workers involved in broiler
production. Five hundred and seventy-six one-day-old ROSS 308 broilers were reared on six types of litter (Treatment
1: chopped wheat straw; treatment 2: wood shavings; treatment 3: mixture of 1/3 chopped wheat straw, 1/3 wood
shavings and 1/3 peat; treatment 4: wheat straw pellets; treatment 5: softwood pellets and treatment 6: pellets of 1/3
wheat straw, 1/3 wood shavings and 1/3 peat). Using chamber emission of harmful gases, NH3 and CO2 were
measured weekly for each treatment. The results showed that the critical level of NH3 was reached for the first time
on day 28. By the end of the rearing period, NH3 concentrations were above the permitted value in all the treatments,
with no significant difference between treatments (P > 0.05). The carbon dioxide values did not exceed the critical
level during the fattening period. Litter types made no significant difference (P > 0.05) to carbon dioxide
concentrations. The type of litter significantly affected the final body weight. This paper describes the influence of
different materials and material combinations used as litter in broiler production. As birds are in constant contact
with the litter, careful selection, appropriate management and proper storage and use of poultry litter contributes to
improving in-house air quality and reducing air emissions from animal production facilities.
