“…Per capita meat consumption for beef and veal, pork, and poultry has grown only 0.4 percent annually in developed countries since the mid-1990s [33]. However, there are projected increases in meat production due to increased, per capita global consumption of meat and population growth [34]. That might influence the future trend, which can be observed from the analysis.…”

The vast majority of the scientific community believe that anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are the predominant cause of climate change. One of the GHG emission sources is agriculture. Following the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) guidelines regarding GHG emission calculation, agriculture is responsible for around 10% of the overall global emissions. Agricultural GHG emissions consist of several emission source categories and several GHGs. In this article were described the results of multivariate statistical analyses performed on data gathered during the period 1990–2017 from the inventories of 43 Annex I countries (parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, UNFCCC, listed in Annex I of the Convention). Trends in the agricultural GHG emissions were analyzed. Generally, the global agricultural GHG emissions are increasing, while the emissions from Annex I countries are decreasing. Apart from the application of urea, emissions from all other sources, such as enteric fermentation, manure management, rice cultivation, agricultural soils, field burning of agricultural residues, and liming are decreasing. Based on multivariate analysis, the most different countries, in terms of GHG emission sources composition in agriculture and emission trends, are Australia, Japan, New Zealand and USA. The rest of the Annex I countries are mostly from Europe and their shares and trends are similar, with slight differences between countries depending, among others, on the date of joining the European Union.

 Abstract:This study was aimed at studying the biological characteristics of the calves of the Hereford and Simmental breeds, and crosses of these breeds in Siberia. The article discusses the peculiarities of metabolism and utilization of nutrients, growth rate, meat productivity and quality, feed conversion in groups of calves up to 15.5 months of age due to the breed identity in the keeping conditions in light facilities and cold climate. Similarity has been noted in the parameters of gas-and-energy metabolism in Hereford and crossbred calves, including their seasonal dynamics. During the experimental period, a seasonal downward trend was noted in the heart rate of Hereford calves by 11.4 %, and respiration rateby 33.8 %. In the Simmental peers, these figures decreased by 12 and 37.2 %, respectively, in hybridsby 6.1 and 29 %. The seasonal decrease in the body temperature in Hereford and crossbred animals by 2.4 -2.5 %, in Simmentalsby 1.3 %, and increased heat production by Hereford animals and their crossesby 20.9 and 20.1 % (P<0.01), compared to the Simmental peers, were noted. In terms of the content of hemoglobin, Hereford calves (116.5 ± 3.6 g/l) and Hereford × Simmental hybrids (114.0 ± 5.1 g/l) tended to be superior to Simmental calves (103.5 ± 5.4 g/l). No significant difference in the erythrocytes count in the blood of calves was found between the groups. In all ages, Simmental calves were inferior to their Hereford and crossbred peers in terms of the content of total protein and albumin in the blood serum. By the content of globulins in the blood serum, no differences were found between the groups. The coefficients of nutrients digestibility due to balanced feeding was relatively high in all groups. Hereford × Simmental hybrids were superior to their Simmental counterparts by the organic matter digestibility by 3.0 % (P<0.01) . The most significant difference in the live weight was observed between Simmental and crossbred calves (P<0.01). The average daily gain of the hybrids over the entire study period was greater by 25.6 and 15.2 % than that of purebred Simmental and Hereford calves. Accordingly, Hereford × Simmental calves had an advantage over Herefords in terms of the slaughtering weight by 5.4 %, and over Simmentalsby 22.1 %. The energy value of the meat of purebred Herefords and crossbred calves was higher by 8.4 % than in purebred Simmentals. The conclusion has been made about the prospects of using Herefords and their crosses with Simmentals for the sustainable development of beef cattle breeding in the conditions of Siberia.

RESUMEN. El lago Titicaca tiene entre su biodiversidad más resaltante la avifauna, que no sólo cumple importantes roles ecológicos, sino también se utiliza en la alimentación humana; pero se desconoce sus características nutricionales y organolépticas. Por ello, el objetivo fue determinar la composición proximal de la carne de pato puna (Spatula puna), choka (Fulica ardesiaca) tiquicho (Gallinula chloropus), pato pana (Oxyura jamaicensis) y keñola (Rollandia microptera), y sus posibilidades de aceptación sensorial por personas no habituadas a su consumo. Se determinó el contenido de humedad, proteína, grasa, ceniza, carbohidratos y energía, considerando seis repeticiones por especie. También se realizaron evaluaciones sensoriales de la carne cruda por medio de un panel de 24 jueces que determinaron su aceptabilidad. Todas las carnes presentan humedad entre 71 y 76%, proteína entre 18 y 22% con diferencias entre especies, destacando la choka con 22.38%. La concentración de grasa difirió entre especies, presentando mayor contenido el tikicho con 5.9%, las cenizas oscilaron entre 0.8 y 1%, los contenidos de carbohidratos no superaron el 1% y el mayor nivel de energía lo tuvo el tikicho con 142.98 kcal 100 g −1. La mayor cantidad de energía se relacionó con mayores niveles de grasa (r = 0.83) y la concentración de humedad con menores contenidos de proteína (r =-0.82); el mayor contenido de proteínas se presentó en secas y el mayor contenido de grasas en las lluvias. Las carnes organolépticamente no fueron aceptadas por el panel, catalogándolas como regularmente aceptables.
