AGRI 6203(1) - INNOVATIVE PRACTICES IN ANIMAL PRODUCTION Trends in the animal production sector and the needs for innovation. Emerging animal production systems (e.g., enriched egg production systems) in supplying animal food. Innovations in the meat sector (e.g. plant-based meat alternatives, lab-based meat). Value-added processed livestock products. Alternative housing systems in the pig and poultry industries (e.g. enhanced cage free systems for poultry production). Alternative feed sources and ingredients for animal feeds. Use of smart devices (e.g. Internet of Things (IoT) to monitor animal productivity. GIS-based technologies for the monitoring of grassland resource inventories. Low emission animal production systems (e.g. low carbon output livestock systems). Sustainable innovative strategies for animal waste management (e.g. the circular economy).
