“…A frequent problem in this regard is how to balance onfarm land use with livestock production requirements for increasing economic performance (see Flaten et al, 2019a, and other studies occurring under both "crops, forage, pasture" and "feed" in Table 8). Less frequently, but worthy of mention, are problems on decisions about what type of farm to run (Mosnier et al, 2017;Diakité et al, 2019aDiakité et al, , 2019bDominati et al, 2019;Rendel et al, 2020;Kokemohr et al, 2022), biosecurity measures (Shrestha et al, 2018), the use of technology (Kuhn et al, 2019;Worden and Hailu, 2020;Kleftodimos et al, 2022), and how to dispose or make use of materials that represent an incidental side effect of primary production or byproducts (Kuhn et al, 2019;Taifouris and Martin, 2021;Cecchini et al, 2022;Kokemohr et al, 2022). Another topic worthy of mention is how to improve animal welfare through decisions relating to cow-calf contact, as exemplified by Asheim et al (2016) (see, e.g., Hansen et al, 2023, for further insight to the topic).…”
