Download Environmental Impacts of Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The ever-increasing global demand for animal products and the need for intensified livestock agricultural operations has resulted in the evolution and development of concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs). Although CAFOs have desirable economic benefits, significant environmental and global health impacts have been documented including the development of antimicrobial resistance, production of manure and wastes, and issues related to water management and contamination. The main objective of this study is to synthesize information from published literature regarding the environmental and global health impacts of widespread use of antibiotics, manure management, and water usage and contamination in CAFOs. Additionally, the study aimed to provide recommendations for more sustainable CAFO practices. This systematic literature review involved a 2-staged search process utilizing various databases to identify relevant literature published within the past decade. Included were 8 studies categorized into 3 major themes: antimicrobial resistance, manure management, and water use and contamination. Key findings showed widespread use of antibiotics in CAFOs is correlated with a global increase of antimicrobial resistance; extensive amounts of manure produced from CAFOs contributes to emergence of diseases and GHGs; and significant water usage and wastewater production from CAFOs is unsustainable and creates opportunities for the contamination of water resources, particularly groundwater in many local communities throughout the world. Education of all CAFO stakeholders, public awareness, and sustainable technological solutions are needed to ensure sustainability. Additionally, there is an urgent need to promote and enforce risk-mitigation strategies, unifying national regulations and best practices to minimize environmental public health impacts from CAFOs.

Download Animal Manure Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The majority of meat, milk, and eggs consumed in the United States are produced in concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFO). With concentrated animal operations, in turn comes concentrated manure accumulation, which can pose a threat of contamination of air, soil, and water if improperly managed. Animal Manure: Production, Characteristics, Environmental Concerns, and Management navigates these important environmental concerns while detailing opportunities for environmentally and economically beneficial utilization.

Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFO) are large livestock and poultry operations that raise animals in a confined situation. CAFOs can improve the efficiency of animal production but large amounts of manure can degrade air and water quality. The EPA is responsible for regulating CAFOs and requires CAFOs that discharge certain pollutants to obtain a permit. This report discusses: (1) trends in CAFOs over the past 30 years; (2) amounts of waste they generate; (3) findings of key research on CAFOs¿ health and environmental impacts; (4) EPA¿s progress in developing CAFO air emissions protocols; and (5) effect of recent court decisions on EPA¿s regulation of CAFO water pollutants. Includes recommendations. Illustrations.

Download Air Emissions from Animal Feeding Operations Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Air Emissions from Animal Feeding Operations: Current Knowledge, Future Needs discusses the need for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to implement a new method for estimating the amount of ammonia, nitrous oxide, methane, and other pollutants emitted from livestock and poultry farms, and for determining how these emissions are dispersed in the atmosphere. The committee calls for the EPA and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to establish a joint council to coordinate and oversee short - and long-term research to estimate emissions from animal feeding operations accurately and to develop mitigation strategies. Their recommendation was for the joint council to focus its efforts first on those pollutants that pose the greatest risk to the environment and public health.
