AB  - In recent years, numerous plans and programs, instructions,
recommendations, scientific opinions, analysis, reports, best practices, regulations
and other type of publications have been published in publications, other than in
journals and symposiums proceedings that consider indicators of biosecurity on
cattle and pig farms in order to improve their health and productivity. These
indicators were created mainly as results of research in numerous national and
international projects, which consider key indicators and prescribe on-farm
assessments of biosecurity on cattle and pig farms. In the assessments of the
biosecurity level in different systems of rearing and accommodation on cattle and
pig farms, the need to determine indicators was observed. The publication about
plans and programs, instructions, recommendations, scientific opinions, analysis,
reports, best practices and regulations, related to biosecurity level contain
numerous indicators. The analysis of these publications aims to determine the main
characteristics of the existing and to generate ideas to define new biosecurity
indicators of the animals on cattle and pig farms.

AB  - In recent times, there has been a revived interest in utilizing medicinal
and aromatic plants (MAPs) for the treatment of diseases and enhancing the
productivity of farm animals. Thanks to their bioactive compounds, MAPs can
enhance the immune system, reduce the risk of disease and improve overall health
and welfare. This is especially important in the post-antibiotic era, where the search
for alternative options is becoming increasingly urgent. Although the mode of their
action is still unclear, today it is known that MAPs can modulate the microbiota
and promote gut health, leading to improved digestion and nutrient absorption.
Some components of MAPs act against viruses, bacteria and parasites. Additionaly,
the use of MAPs in livestock farming can also have environmental benefits.
Livestock methane emissions are a significant contributor to greenhouse gas levels.
Recent studies have shown that certain bioactive compounds found in MAPs could
inhibit methanogenesis and reduce the number of methanogenic microbes in animal
gastrointestinal tracts. As a result, researchers are exploring the potential of MAPs
in methane reduction strategies. Plants could also play a prominent role in
obtaining functional and enriched foods to contribute to animal product quality and
human health in general. This review highlights the importance and potential of
using medicinal plants in farm animal breeding, particularly in the context of the
One Health concept, which acknowledges the interconnectedness of human,
animal, and environmental health.

AB  - The quality of farm animal welfare largely depends on a number
of measures and procedures carried out on farms, which are defined by one name
as biosecurity. The application of certain management practices differs from farm
to farm, and accordingly their impact on the quality of animal welfare differs. The
quality of biosecurity, welfare and the presence of factors that threaten them
depend on the technology of production on the farm, animal husbandry systems,
microclimatic and hygienic conditions, management, procedures performed on
animals and the way they are performed, the attitude of employees towards
animals, their training and competence, etc.The aim of this study was to determine
the impact of intensive calf rearing on differences in biosecurity and welfare
quality assessment on two dairy farms. The technological process of production on
both farms is similar, since both farms operate within the same production system.
On both farms, there is a nursery in a separate facility, but without individual
calving boxes. Calves are separated from their mothers immediately after birth.
One of the significant differences between the farms was the way the calves were
kept in the first 7 days of life. On one of the farms (A) the calves were kept tied in
the nursery, while on the other farm (B) they were housed in individual boxes, also
located within the nursery. At 8 days of age, calves were placed in group boxes, in
a special facility, rearing stable.
The greatest weaknesses and threats to biosecurity and welfare on both farms were
manifested at the earliest age of calves, and they relate to the accommodation and
feeding of newborn calves with colostrum. Determined that newborn calves were
kept tie-stall housing system or in dimly lit individual boxes of inadequate size and
design, housed in the nursery together with the cows. This increased the calf's
exposure to a number of pathogens. The risk to biosecurity and welfare is higher
when inadequate colostrum consumption is taken into account in terms of quantity,
manner and time of feeding. When it comes to calves of older categories, the
situation was significantly more favourable in terms of nutrition and housing
conditions, as well as health surveillance and provided great opportunities in terms
of further improvement.

AB  - Field experiences and scientific observations point out the need
to define a guide which would describe widely applicable general principles and
good practices for ensuring the welfare of dairy cattle. The key action areas in the
guide should be stockmanship, feed and water, living environment, husbandry
practices and health management. There is a set of principles in each of these key
action areas that should be used to further define the good practice of ensuring
dairy cattle welfare in farms. The most important issue for the implementation of
good welfare practices for dairy cows is stockmanship. Appropriate nutrition is a
basic requirement and it is considered to have a great role to ensure good dairy
cattle welfare. Environment, space, equipment, microclimatic and hygienic
conditions significantly influence the welfare of dairy cattle. Dairy cattle should be
treated with care and in a consistent manner, taking into account their natural
behaviour all the time, and in any case minimizing the risk of injury and distress.
For the welfare of dairy cattle of particular importance are many health conditions
as: lameness, mastitis, injuries, acidosis, milk fever and other metabolic diseases,
diarrhoea and anaemia of calves, respiratory diseases, heat stress, arthritis and
many contagious diseases. It is necessary to introduce systematic training of
stockpersons in our country with special attention to stockmanship and
responsibility, feed and water, living environment, husbandry practices and health
management in order to achieve a stable system of ensuring good dairy cattle
welfare.

AB  - The aim of the research was to determine whether the frequency of certain injuries and diseases of cows as important parameters for ensuring their welfare varies considerably depending on the growing season (summer/winter). The research was conducted by Welfare Quality Assessment Protocol for Dairy Cows (2009) on total of 16 dairy farms (N=4.833 cows), wherein the provision of good health was descriptively categorized as unacceptable, acceptable, enhanced and excellent, according to calculated score (0-100 points).The air temperature of given location was recorded during each farm visit, so the average temperature of conducted assessment for specific season, served as additional indicator of dairy cows’ thermal comfort. The results of the study showed that the effect of the season on the incidence of injuries and illness was not significant (p> 0.05), but certain disorders were more frequent in one of the seasons. In the summer season, mastitis (2.63%), diarrhea (2.31%), discharge from the eye and nose (6.24% and 1.69%) were more frequent, and in the winter season lameness (27.78%) , tachypnoea (0.13%), and vaginal discharge (1.73%). Relying on welfare standards, it can be concluded that the parameters tested do not represent an alarming risk for the welfare of raised animals with the exception of mastitis rates and ocular discharge in the summer period. However, the overall health of dairy cows in both seasons is considered acceptable (in average 40 from 100 points) indicating that only minimal requirements for ensuring well-being are met and that there is a need to improve the health situation. Given that related studies have shown a low level of protection of the comfort of the examined animals as well as its significant influence on the provision of thermal comfort and health of cows, the recommendations are directed primarily at ensuring appropriate conditions of keeping with adequate and continuous health control of the herd

AB  - Diseases and mortality of dairy cows are significant problems from the aspect of welfare as well as the economy of production. Monitoring and analysis of health and welfare conditions on farms are important prerequisites for their improvement. This paper presents an analysis of health and welfare condition on dairy farms in Republic of Serbia. The study was conducted on 16 commercial farms with total number of 4833 milking cows of Simmental and Holstein Friesian rase. The evaluation of health and welfare indicators was done according to Welfare Quality (R) Assessment Protocol for Cattle. Results obtained in this study showed that largest share of farms was estimated as enhanced (56.25%) and acceptable (43.75%) in terms of overall health state. The incidences for majority of the diseases below the set alert thresholds indicated no severe risk for dairy cows' welfare on examined farms. The exceptions were determined incidences of laminitis (37.65%), dystocia (4.18%) and mortality rate (6.70%) which nevertheless corresponds to their growing trend in the dairy farming. Although health of skin was evaluated as acceptable almost every fifth cow had at least a portion of the skin without hair while the presence of skin lesions was much less common (6.49%). With high share of dehorned cows in herd (78.9%) another serious welfare risk is the common practice of dehorning without aesthetics and/or analgesics implementation. Analyzing indicators of health and welfare on Serbian dairy farms it could be assumed that the most important risks derived from poor housing conditions and management omissions.

AB  - The aim of this study was to analyze the overall welfare state on Serbian dairy farms, as well to suggest measures for its improvement. The assessment was done according to Welfare Quality® Assessment Protocol for Dairy Cows on 16 selected commercial farms in which the cows of Simmental and Holstein-Friesian breeds were reared (N=4833). Welfare state on each farm was evaluated by relevant measures that indicated insurance of appropriate feeding, housing, health and behavior as basic principles of welfare. Overall score (0-100 points) enabled finally categorization of farms into one of four welfare category (not classified, acceptable, enhanced and excellent).Based on results, half of the farms were assigned to acceptable, and other half to enhanced welfare category. Housing conditions on the majority of farms (63%) were assessed as unacceptable (≤20 points) due to poor hygiene and discomfort. Cows were kept tied continuously on more than one third of farms which together with lack of pasture (17 days/year on average) restricting their comfort and freedom of movement. This may be also linked to low scored behavioral insurance (32points), especially inability to express its natural forms (6.7 points).Health condition was estimated as acceptable, but endangered welfare by high incidence of laminitis (38%), distocya (4.2%) and mortality (6.7%). Commonly performed dehorning procedure (79%) without anesthetic/analgesic application caused pain and stress in affected animals. Overall assessment score (2.5/5) showed the need for improvement in all areas of dairy cows' welfare, especially in terms of their housing and management.
AB  - Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je da se analizira stanje dobrobiti na mlečnim farmama u Srbiji, kao i da se predlože mere za njegovo unapređenje. Ocena stanja dobrobiti obavljena je putem Protokola za ocenu kvaliteta dobrobiti mlečnih krava na 16 odabranih komercijalnih farmi na kojima su gajene krave simentalske i holštajn-frizijske rase (N=4833). Stanje dobrobiti na svakoj od farmi procenjivano je na osnovu relavantnih pokazatelja koji ukazuju na stepen obezbeđenja odgovarajuće ishrane, uslova držanja, zdravlja i ponašanja kao osnovnih principa dobrobiti. Ukupan skor (0-100 poena) omogućio je konačnu kategorizaciju farmi u jednu od četiri kategorije stanja kvaliteta dobrobiti (nezadovoljavajuću, prihvatljivu, odgovarajuću i odličnu). Prema rezultatima istraživanja, jedna polovina farmi svrstana je u kategoriju prihvatljivog, a druga polovina farmi u kategoriju odgovarajućeg kvaliteta dobrobiti. Uslovi držanja su na većini farmi (63%) ocenjeni nezadovaljavajuće (≤20 poena) zbog loše higijene i diskomfora. Na više od trećine farmi krave su držane vezano tokom cele godine, što udruženo sa slabom primenom ispaše (17 dana/godini prosečno) značajno ograničava njihov komfor i slobodu kretanja. Ovo je svakako u vezi i sa niskom ocenom obezbeđenja odgovarajućeg ponašanja (32 poena), posebno kada je u pitanju mogućnost ispoljavanja njegovih prirodnih oblika (6.7 poena). Zdravstveno stanje u proseku je ocenjeno kao prihvatljivo, ali su visoka incidenca laminitisa (38%), otežanih telenja (4.2%) i mortalitet (6.7%) prepoznati kao glavni činioci rizika po dobrobit. Uobičajena praksa izvođenja obezrožavanja (79%) bez primene anestetika/analgetika na farmama u Srbiji uzrok je bola i stresa kod životinja. Prosečan skor celokupno ocenjene dobrobiti (2.5/5) ukazuje na potrebu za unapređenjem u svim segmentima obezbeđenja dobrobiti mlečnih krava, posebno menadžmenta i uslova držanja.

AB  - The aim of this study was to investigate changes of serum testosterone, scrotal circumference, body weight, and semen characteristics in a Meat Institute Sheep (MIS) population during their developing period (between 3 and 17 months). Correlative relationships among parameters were also tested. Body weight and scrotal circumference were measured monthly, blood samples for testosterone levels were taken bimonthly (3-17 months), and semen samples were collected by an electroejaculator between the ages of 9 and 17 months. The analysis showed that the average serum testosterone levels ranged from 1.83 to 13.28 ng/mL and significantly depended on the age of the lambs (P  (lt)  0.05). The trend in the level of serum testosterone was characterized by pronounced variability throughout the study period. Changes in scrotal circumference and body weight were significantly dependent on age. Ejaculate volume, sperm motility, and the percentage of live spermatozoa increased with age, except for the percentage of abnormal spermatozoa, which decreased with age. Correlations among serum testosterone, scrotal circumference, and body weight were moderately to highly positive and highly significant. All parameters of semen quality were poorly correlated with testosterone and body weight, while scrotal circumference was in moderate correlation only with ejaculate volume and live sperm count (P  (lt)  0.05).

AB  - Three farms of dairy cows (A, B and C) were observed for health disorders of dairy cows and suckling calves. Farm A is farm with tied system of rearing, with 1100 cows, while farms B and C have 400 and 600 cows kept loose with outdoor pens, respectively. Data regarding welfare criteria of dairy cows (health, feeding, housing and behaviour) were collected and analysed through Protocol of Welfare Quality (2009). Health disorders of dairy cows and suckling calves were collected and statistically analysed by chi-square test (X2 test). Welfare of all of three dairy farms were assessed as acceptable, meaning that provided welfare conditions meet the minimum requirements of animals. Principle of provision of good health was rated as acceptable (≥20 points) on farm A, while on farms with loose system (B and C) overall health rated as excellent (≥80 points). Occurrence rate of reproductive, locomotor, skin and claws disorders and digestive and systemic disorders of dairy cows and calves up to 4 months old were very different between three farms (A, B, C) with X2-values of 2901.71, 252.02, 204.08, 1152.31 and 184.23 respectively; α (lt) 0.01). According presented data, it is obvious that the majority health problems were observed in tied system of rearing, on farm A, such as reproductive disorders and mastitis, as well as injuries and bad body score and lame cows. The most serious health problems of the calves were diarrhea and bronchopneumonia of different etiology.

AB  - This study was conducted in five dairy farms with different capacity (farms A with 47, B 12, C 10, D 14 and E 24 Simmental cows, aged between 4 and 5 years and body weight about 600 kg) in order to determine a relationship between rearing system, Animal Needs Index (ANI) and milk traits. Loose system of cow rearing was used in open stalls in farms A and C, while in other farms cows were tied in closed stalls. In two farms, there were outdoor pens, permanently available to cows on farm A, and during daytime on farm D. Rations for dairy cows were equal in all five farms and suitable for daily milk production about 20 kg with 4.0 % milk fat and 3.5 % milk protein. It was established that total ANI scores for farms were A 35.5, B 9.5, C 24.5, D 26.5 and E 10.5. The welfare levels in farms B and E were not sufficient, in farms C and D were very good, while in farm A it was excellent. A very significant influence of rearing system on cow welfare was found (p (lt) 0.001). A significant influence of rearing system (p (lt) 0.01) on average daily milk yield, milk yield in standard lactation, milk fat (kg), yield of 4 % fat corrected milk and yield of proteins (kg) were noticed. The influence of the rearing system on milk fat content (%), dry matter (%), protein (%) and lactose (%) was not statistically significant. Differences between ANI score, daily and standard lactation milk yield were very significant (p (lt) 0.001), as well as differences between ANI and the amount of milk fat (kg), protein (kg) and amount of 4 % fat corrected milk.

AB  - The aim of this study was to find out is it possible to presume success of boars sperm cryopreservation, based on controlled exposure to heat stress and to investigate in vitro quality parameters of frozen/thawed sperm of previously selected 6 boars with good results (group 1) and 6 boars (group 2) with bad results on thermo resistance test (TT). In this investigation, ejaculates of 12 chosen of 75 AI boars (Landrace, Large White, Pietrain and Durock breeds) from SVC Velika Plana (Serbia) were used. Tolerance to heat stress was performed by Schaetz (1963) method. Ejaculates were extended with Androhep plus (1:1) and kept during 60 minutes on 41oC. In cryopreservation of boars semen Westendorf et al. (1975) method, modified by Bwanga et al. (1990). Very significant changes of progressive motility rate were observed after spermatozoa exposure to controlled thermal stress. High correlation coefficient of progressive motility rate of both groups of boars, but higher in group 2 for progressive motility rate after thawing and after heat stress treatment was established. Average progressive motility rate of all 12 boars did not differ before and after thawing. Presence of boars of all breeds represented in the SVC (Large White, Landrace, Duroc and Pietrain) in both quality groups confirms the assumption that suitability for cryopreservation of sperm is individual trait. According data analysis, sperm deep freezing success requires previous selection for potential donors, which have to be consider standard quality parameters testing and controlled stress exposure tests.

U istraživanju su korišćeni ejakulati 12 od 75 nerastova rasa: landras, veliki jorkšir, pijetren i durok (L, J, P, D) iz SVC Velika Plana, odabranih na osnovu testa termorezistencije (TT) i svrstanih u dve kvalitetne grupe.

Duboko zamrzavanje sperme odabranih nerastova izvedeno modifikovanim postupkom po Westendorf-u i sar. (1975) i Bwanga-i i sar. (1990). Rezultati TT ukazali su na vrlo značajne promene progresivne pokretljivosti spermatozoida posle izlaganja kontrolisanom toplotnom stresu. Ustanovljen je visok koeficijent korelacije kod obe grupe ali ipak nešto viši kod nerastova 2. grupe za odnos procenta progresivne pokretljivosti spermatozoida posle odmrzavanja i progresivne pokretljivosti posle izlaganja temperaturi od 41oC. Prosečna progresivna pokretljivost spermatozoida svih ispitivanih nerastova se nije značajno razlikovala pre i posle zamrzavanja. Slučajni raspored nerastova svih rasa zastupljenih u SVC (Jorkšir, Landras, Durok i Pijetren) u obe kvalitetne grupe potvrđuje pretpostavku da je pogodnost sperme za krioprezervaciju individualna osobina. Za uspešnu krioprezervaciju sperme nerastova je neophodna prethodna selekcija potencijalnih donora na osnovu rezultata ispitivanja standardnih parametara kvaliteta i testova u kojima se spermatozoidi in vitro izlažu različitim kontrolisanom stresu.

AB  - The social rank refers to the relative position of an individual animal within the dominant hierarchy developed in a group. In rams, social rank is mostly associated with body mass, body size and body condition. However, although the body mass is generally considered as one of the main determinants of social rank, only few studies have been carried out for the purpose of associating of the social behavior and body development of these animals. Objective of this research was to determine how the ram body development measures relate to establishment of social hierarchy. Social rank was established using food competition test at the age of animals between 4 and 17 months. Testing was done on total of 20 male animals of which number 12 animals were selected for further testing (6 dominant and 6 submissive animals). Body mass and testicular circumferences were measured at the age of 4, 7, 12 and 18 months, and linear body measures were taken at the age of 12 and 18 months. Dominant males had higher body mass and greater testicular circumference. The social rank had no significant effect on linear body measures of rams, except for chest girth (P (lt) 0.05) in both control periods. Body mass was moderately to highly positively associated with studied body parameters. Significant positive correlations were established between body mass and body length (r=0.58; P (lt) 0.01), chest width (r=0.44; P (lt) 0.05), chest girth (r=0.65; P (lt) 0.01) and testicular circumference (r=0.62; P (lt) 0.01). Results obtained in this study indicate that it is justified to observe the body mass as one of the main determinants of social rank, as well as the possibility of earlier maturation of dominant animals.
AB  - Socijalni rang se odnosi na relativnu poziciju individue unutar dominantne hijerarhije koja se razvija u grupi. Kod ovnova, socijalni rang se najviše povezuje sa telesnom masom, veličinom tela i telesnom kondicijom. Međutim, iako se telesna masa generalno smatra jednom od glavnih determinanti socijalnog ranga, malo je istraživanja sprovedeno u cilju povezivanja socijalnog ponašanja i telesne razvijenosti ovih životinja. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je da se utvrdi na koju način se mere telesne razvijenosti ovnova odnose prema uspostavljanju socijalne hijerarhije. Socijalni rang utvrđen je pomoću testa kompeticije na hranu kada su životinje bile u uzrastu od 4 i 7 meseci. Testiranje je obavljeno na ukupno 20 muških grla od čega je za dalje ispitivanje odabrano 12 grla (6 dominantnih i 6 submisivnih). Telesna masa i obim testisa mereni su u uzrastu od 4, 7, 12 i 18 meseci, a linearne telesne mere su izmerene u uzrastu od 12 i 18 meseci. Dominantna grla su imala veću telesnu masu i veći obim testisa. Socijalni rang nije imao značajan uticaj na linearne telesne mere ovnova, izuzev na meru obima grudi (P (lt) 0,05) u oba kontrolna perioda. Telesna masa bila je umereno do visoko pozitivno povezana sa ispitivanim telesnim parametrima. Značajne pozitivne korelacije utvrđene su između telesne mase i dužine trupa (r=0,58; P (lt) 0,01), širine grudi (r=0,44; P (lt) 0,05), obima grudi (r=0,65; P (lt) 0,01) i obima testisa (r=0,62; P (lt) 0,01). Rezultati koji proizilaze iz ove studije ukazuju na opravdanost posmatranja mase tela kao jedne od glavnih determinanti socijalnog ranga, kao i na mogućnost ranijeg sazrevanja dominantnih jedinki.

abstract = "The social rank refers to the relative position of an individual animal within the dominant hierarchy developed in a group. In rams, social rank is mostly associated with body mass, body size and body condition. However, although the body mass is generally considered as one of the main determinants of social rank, only few studies have been carried out for the purpose of associating of the social behavior and body development of these animals. Objective of this research was to determine how the ram body development measures relate to establishment of social hierarchy. Social rank was established using food competition test at the age of animals between 4 and 17 months. Testing was done on total of 20 male animals of which number 12 animals were selected for further testing (6 dominant and 6 submissive animals). Body mass and testicular circumferences were measured at the age of 4, 7, 12 and 18 months, and linear body measures were taken at the age of 12 and 18 months. Dominant males had higher body mass and greater testicular circumference. The social rank had no significant effect on linear body measures of rams, except for chest girth (P (lt) 0.05) in both control periods. Body mass was moderately to highly positively associated with studied body parameters. Significant positive correlations were established between body mass and body length (r=0.58; P (lt) 0.01), chest width (r=0.44; P (lt) 0.05), chest girth (r=0.65; P (lt) 0.01) and testicular circumference (r=0.62; P (lt) 0.01). Results obtained in this study indicate that it is justified to observe the body mass as one of the main determinants of social rank, as well as the possibility of earlier maturation of dominant animals., Socijalni rang se odnosi na relativnu poziciju individue unutar dominantne hijerarhije koja se razvija u grupi. Kod ovnova, socijalni rang se najviše povezuje sa telesnom masom, veličinom tela i telesnom kondicijom. Međutim, iako se telesna masa generalno smatra jednom od glavnih determinanti socijalnog ranga, malo je istraživanja sprovedeno u cilju povezivanja socijalnog ponašanja i telesne razvijenosti ovih životinja. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je da se utvrdi na koju način se mere telesne razvijenosti ovnova odnose prema uspostavljanju socijalne hijerarhije. Socijalni rang utvrđen je pomoću testa kompeticije na hranu kada su životinje bile u uzrastu od 4 i 7 meseci. Testiranje je obavljeno na ukupno 20 muških grla od čega je za dalje ispitivanje odabrano 12 grla (6 dominantnih i 6 submisivnih). Telesna masa i obim testisa mereni su u uzrastu od 4, 7, 12 i 18 meseci, a linearne telesne mere su izmerene u uzrastu od 12 i 18 meseci. Dominantna grla su imala veću telesnu masu i veći obim testisa. Socijalni rang nije imao značajan uticaj na linearne telesne mere ovnova, izuzev na meru obima grudi (P (lt) 0,05) u oba kontrolna perioda. Telesna masa bila je umereno do visoko pozitivno povezana sa ispitivanim telesnim parametrima. Značajne pozitivne korelacije utvrđene su između telesne mase i dužine trupa (r=0,58; P (lt) 0,01), širine grudi (r=0,44; P (lt) 0,05), obima grudi (r=0,65; P (lt) 0,01) i obima testisa (r=0,62; P (lt) 0,01). Rezultati koji proizilaze iz ove studije ukazuju na opravdanost posmatranja mase tela kao jedne od glavnih determinanti socijalnog ranga, kao i na mogućnost ranijeg sazrevanja dominantnih jedinki.",

AB  - In this paper are described the most important stressors in intensive sheep production on farms and pastures. Stressors on farms and pastures mostly originate from adverse housing conditions, improper zootechnical procedures, veterinary procedures (treatment, vaccinations, blood tests, surgery), animal husbandry procedures (labeling, weaning, grouping, shearing, shortening the tail, hoof care), unsuitable weather conditions (extreme heat and cold) and insufficient nutrition. The paper puts out special emphasis on the consideration of period of life in which sheep were subjected to additional loads and susceptible to effects of these stressors, such as birth, juvenile period, puberty, oestrus, advanced pregnancy, parturition and the puerperal period.

AB  - The subject of this research was to determine the effect of the housing system on quality of welfare of dairy cattle in Serbia. Study was realized on six farms, capacity of 30 to 900 cows, with loose and tie housing system. Assessment of the welfare quality parameters was done by using the Welfare Quality® Assessment Protocol for Cattle, 2009. Results of the research show that the welfare quality of dairy animals is under the significant effect of housing system, and that loose system has the advantage when it comes to comfort around resting, easy of movements and health condition of cows. Share of not lame cows (81%) and cows with no lesion (86%) was significantly higher (p (lt) 0.01) in loose system. Indicator values: duration of lying down movements (6.53 sec), lying down movements with collisions (18.7%) and lying outside lying area (28.4%) in tie system were significantly higher (p (lt) 0.01) compared to loose system indicating the inadequacy of the housing and lack of comfort. Analysis of indicators associated with cow hygiene (dirty legs and udder) and diseases (dystocia) points to significant gaps in management in both housing systems which represent significant threat to cow welfare quality.

Biosecurity indicators (existence of a written biosecurity plan, isolation, introduction of newly acquired animals into the herd, herd health, assessment of the personnel attitude towards equipment, traffic control, attitude towards visitors, feeding and watering control, manure management, disposal of dead animal carcasses, attitude towards other animals, rodents and birds control, sanitation) were viewed and evaluated by rating scale: (5) - excellent, (4) - very good, (3) - good, (2) - sufficient, (1) - insufficient, there are resources for improvement (0) - insufficient, with no resources for improvement. Obtained data were analyzed in the SWOT process, taking into account all the strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities for improving the biosecurity level. The situation in the center is rated as very good, with an average rating of 4.15. However, one disadvantage is serious and related to the boar facilities isolation possibilities, taking into account their location and the presence of two types of male breeding animals (boars and bulls) in the same location. Newly acquired breeding animals are purchased from various sources, but with a rigorous regime of control and not at the same time.
AB  - U radu je detaljno analizirana primena biosigurnosnih mera u proizvodnji sperme nerastova u jednom centru za veštačko osemenjavanje svinja. Sagledani su i procenjeni svi indikatori biosigurnosti (postojanje pisanog plana biosigurnosti, izolacija, uvođenje novonabavljenih životinja u zapat, zdravstveni status zapata, ocena odnosa osoblja prema opremi, kontrola kretanja i prometa, odnos prema posetiocima, kontrola ishrane i vodosnabdevanja, izđubravanje, uklanjanje leševa uginulih životinja, odnos prema drugim životinjama na farmi, kontrola populacija glodara i ptica, sanitacija), i ocenjeni prema skali ocena: (5) - odličan, (4) - vrlo dobar, (3) - dobar, (2) - dovoljan, (1) - nedovoljan, ima resursa za poboljšanje, (0) nedovoljan, nema resursa za poboljšanje. U razmatranju rezultata primenjena je SWOT analiza i utvrđene prednosti, nedostaci, rizici i mogućnosti za podizanje nivoa biosigurnosti. Stanje u centru je ocenjeno kao vrlo dobro, uz prosečnu ocenu 4,15. Međutim, jedan nedostatak je veoma ozbiljan i odnosi se na mogućnost izolacije objekata, uzimajući u obzir njegovu lokaciju i prisustvo dve vrste muških priplodnih životinja (nerastova i bikova) na istoj lokaciji. Nove priplodne životinje se nabavljaju iz različitih izvora, ali uz rigorozan režim kontrole i ne u isto vreme. Svakako, izmeštanje objekata za držanje priplodnih nerastova na drugu bezbednu lokaciju predstavlja složen ali prioritetan zadatak, kojim bi se otklonile brojne pretnje po proizvodnju sperme.

AB  - The most significant welfare problems in dairy calves in intensive rearing conditions have been investigated in this paper. These problems mainly result from inadequate intake of colostrum (separation from the dam), inadequate ventilation (resulting in inappropriate airflow, low or high temperatures, high humidity and poor air quality), poor floor conditions (wet floor, without bedding), inadequate monitoring of health, exposure to pathogens causing respiratory and gastrointestinal disorders and occurrence of iron deficiency. In addition, on cattle farms in our country welfare problems in calves originate from continuous restocking (no 'all in - all out') and mixing calves from different sources, as well as insufficiently balanced solid food, insufficient access to water and generally poor response of farmer to health problems, especially necessary dietary changes. A special welfare problem is insufficient floor space allowance which results in calf's discomfort.
AB  - U radu su istraženi najznačajniji problemi dobrobiti kod teladi u intenzivnim uslovima gajenja. Ovi problemi su uglavnom posledica neadekvatnog uzimanja kolostruma (odvajanja od majke), neadekvatne ventilacije (dovodi do neodgovarajućeg protoka vazduha, niske ili visoke temperature, visoke vlažnosti i lošeg kvaliteta vazduha), loših uslova poda (vlažan pod, pod bez prostirke), neadekvatnog praćenja zdravlja teladi od strane odgajivača, izloženosti patogenim mikroorganizmima koji izazivaju respiratorne i gastrointestinalne poremećaje i pojave nedostatka gvožđa. Pored toga, na farmama u našoj zemlji problemi dobrobiti kod teladi potiču od kontinuiranog korišćenja staja (ne 'sve unutra- sve napolje'), mešanja teladi iz različitih izvora, kao i od nedovoljno izbalansirane čvrste hrane, nedovoljnog pristupa vodi i generalno lošeg odgovora farmera na zdravstvene probleme teladi, a posebno neophodne promene u ishrani. Poseban problem dobrobiti teladi su nedovoljne površine individualnih boksova koje rezultiraju u neudobnosti teladi.

AB  - In this paper, welfare assessment using the methodology of the Welfare quality ® assessment protocol for cattle (2009) was performed for dairy cows maintained in the loose system of rearing on three dairy farms. This methodology includes quantitative measurements and qualitative evaluation of certain welfare parameters, criteria and principles of welfare, as well as assessment of the overall welfare of dairy cows. The results showed that the overall level of dairy cow welfare was acceptable on two farms, and was good on one. On two farms, the state of the cows' social behavior expression was unacceptable. Furthermore, on all three farms, the expression of other types of cow behavior was not acceptable. At one farm, it was determined that the result for the absence of prolonged thirst was unacceptable. Based on these results, it can be concluded that it is necessary to improve the quality of cow welfare on these farms. The applied methodology provides a multidimensional insight into the quality of cow welfare in the loose system.
AB  - U ovom radu izvršena je procena dobrobiti krava u slobodnom sistemu držanja primenom metodologije iz Protokola za procenu kvaliteta dobrobiti goveda (2009). Ova metodologija obuhvata kvantitativna merenja i kvalitativnu procenu definisanih parametara u okviru kriterijuma i principa dobrobiti i na osnovu njih konačnu ocenu dobrobiti muznih krava. U istraživanjima je utvrđeno da je nivo dobrobiti krava u celini na dve farme prihvatljiv, a na jednoj dobar. Na dve farme socijalno ponašanje krava je bilo nezadovoljavajuće, dok su na sve tri farme bili nezadovoljavajući drugi oblici ponašanja krava. Na jednoj farmi je utvrđen nezadovoljavajući rezultat za kriterijum odsustvo dugotrajne žeđi. Na osnovu rezultata istraživanja može se zaključiti da je neophodno poboljšanje kvaliteta dobrobiti krava na svim ispitivanim farmama.

AB  - The effects of general and special biosecurity measures to prevent introduction of infectious agents in a dairy farm or its spreading from farm were analyzed in details in this paper. Investigations were conducted on five different dairy farm production with different technology and capacity using a questionnaire method (Hristov and Stanković, 2009), as well as scrutinizing their positions in relation to possible sources bio-risks from the near and far away environment. Test results showed that there are serious shortcomings on all observed farms, regarding the possibility of introduction of infectious agents in the production herd, and its possible spread to the environment. Although all fenced and a position of the most of the farms mostly favourable, there are some serious threats to the herd health and farm production, regarding open space and lack of green belt, the uncontrolled presence of wild birds and rodents in facilities and even in feed storage, as well as contact of the employees with other cows not belonging to the farm.

AB  - Preservation of necessary level of swine herd health status is the most important aspect of bio-security, farm production and successful welfare protection. It involves a list of bio-security measures which must be essential part of production technology, including good rearing conditions and other prophylactic measures appliance. According to previously performed investigations, a list of elements required to establish standards for bio-security for particular pig farm was created. The list includes elements related to assure spatial., microclimate and hygienic conditions for pigs rearing, care, nutrition and watering, surveillance, regrouping and transport of swine, disease outbreak control, barns equipment and production process organization which are performed by veterinarians and zootechnicians. Bio-security standards must concern necessary level of swine herd health status and organization, size and type of operation and anticipate all compulsory measures for health control and disease spreading prevention, particularly those whose outbreak must be reported. In bio-security plan structure present epidemiological situation, potential herd health and production threats, as well as possible solutions must be concerned.

AB  - The aim of this paper was to determine the level of cows behavioral welfare protection on farms with different rearing systems. Research of cows behavioral welfare protection was carried out on 5 farms (farms A, B, C, D, E) of various capacities with a total of 192 animals. The smallest farm was with 18 (farm B), and the biggest with 80 cows (farm A). On farm C were 22, D 27 and farm E 35 cows. Two farms (farms A and C) represented the free system of rearing inside open stables, while the three farms (farms B, D and E) have tied system of cows rearing in enclosed stables. The two farms have outlets (farms A and D), from which outlet on farm A is always available to animals, while the outlet on farm D is used only during the day. Cows were 3 to 5 years old with an average lactation between 4000 and 5000 liters/year. To assess behavior, rating scales from 0 to 5 (0 - unsatisfactory, there are no resources to improve, 1 - unsatisfactory, there are resources to improve, 2 - sufficient, 3 - good, 4 - very good, 5 - excellent) were used. The appraisal is comprised of nine complex behavioral systems such as: reactivity, ingestion, explorative behavior, movement, social behavior, body hygiene, territoriality, reproduction, and rest and sleep of animals. On farms with free rearing system of behavioral care benefit was evaluated as 'good' (Farm A 3.44, farm B 3.22). Insufficient protection of behavioral welfare was found on farms associated with the breeding system without outlet (farm B 1.56 and farm E 1.44). Cow's behavioral welfare of farm D with tied system of rearing and use of outlet was rated as scale score 'good' on the average.
AB  - Cilj ovog rada je utvrđivanje nivoa zaštite bihejvioralne dobrobiti na farmama krava sa različitim sistemom gajenja. Istraživanje zaštite bihejvioralne dobrobiti izvršeno je na 5 farmi (farme A, B, C, D, E) različitog kapaciteta sa ukupno 192 grla. U najmanjoj farmi bilo je 18 (farma B), a u najvećoj 80 krava (farma A). Na farmi C bilo je 22, farmi D 27 i farmi E 35 krava. Na dve farme (farme A i C) zastupljen je slobodan sistem držanja u otvorenim stajama, dok se na tri farme krave drže vezano u zatvorenim stajama. Na dve farme postoje ispusti (farme A i D), na jednoj farmi je stalno dostupan (farma A), dok se na drugoj koristi samo preko dana (farma D). Farme B, D i E imaju vezani način držanja krava i zatvoreni tip staje. Na farmi D se krave drže vezane, ali su preko dana u ispustu. Krave su stare između 3 i 5 godina, sa prosečnom laktacijom između 4000 i 5000 litara mleka. Za procenu bihejvioralnih sistema ponašanja korišćene su skale ocena od 0 do 5 (5 - odličan, 4 - vrlo dobar, 3 - dobar, 2 - dovoljan, 1 - nedovoljan ima resursa za poboljšanje, 0 nedovoljan nema resursa za poboljšanje). Procena je obuhvatila devet složenih bihejvioralnih sistema, i to: reaktivnost, ingestiju, eksplorativno ponašanje, kretanje, socijalno ponašanje, higijena tela, teritorijalnost, reprodukciju i bihejvioralni sistem odmora i sna životinja. Na farmama sa slobodnim sistemom gajenja zaštita bihejvioralne dobrobiti ocenjena je kao dobra (farma A 3,44, farma B 3,22). Nedovoljna zaštita bihejvioralne dobrobiti utvrđena je na farmama sa vezanim sistemom gajenja bez ispusta (farma B 1,56 i farma E 1,44). Skalom ocena dobar na donjoj granici ocenjena je bihejvioralna dobrobit na farmi D sa vezanim sistemom gajenja i ispustom.
