    (Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2022) Viinalass, Haldja (compiler); Arney, David (compiler); Tänavots, Alo (compiler); Institute of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences
    Dear colleagues, On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I am pleased to invite you to attend the XIX Baltic Animal Breeding Conference that will be held in Tartu, Estonia, at the Estonian University of Life Sciences from December 14-15, 2022. The recent pandemic has shown us that our sector never stops, that animal production continues to produce food for us and that we are an essential part of society. In 2022 we will surely be under the economic and societal consequences of this pandemic and the changed situation in the world. This year’s Baltic Animal Breeding Conference is already the 19th. The Baltic Animal Breeding Conference, which has taken place over the years, will give us an opportunity to exchange information and new ideas, and will encourage the development of further fruitful collaboration and networking. The conference will present ideas of what animal husbandry researchers and lecturers in the Baltic countries are currently doing. The conference is planned in a traditional way: a plenary session in the morning and a species session in the afternoon on December 14th , followed by a technical tour on December 15 th . The programme will cover various areas of animal production and the topics will be filled with innovation and recent scientific results in animal production. As a community, we must make up for the lost opportunities for face-to-face networking. Happy listening, nice meetings and flying ideas! Prof Haldja Viinalass, Chair of Organizing Committee

    Endangered breeds
    (Ministry of Agriculture, Republic of Estonia, 2012) Ministry of Agriculture, Republic of Estonia
    Estonian Native cattle has a similar history with our people. Name of breed: Estonian Native Cattle; Year and place of establishment of the herdbook and association: 1920, Pärnu; Occurrence: all over Estonia, more in Pärnu, Saare and Rapla Counties; Population size (2011): ca 1500; Breeding organization: Estonian Native Cattle Breed Society. General. The Estonian native cattle have had a difficult, but interesting destiny, which, in many ways, is similar to the destiny of the Estonian people. This breed has been developed from the local aboriginal cattle throughout centuries and has preserved several characteristics despite different challenges – their peculiar looks and special characteristics of milk. The Estonian Nativadder, it also experiences less digestive diseases. In addition, it is not demanding regarding keeping conditions, its life expectancy is long and easy calving. There are fewer stillbirths in case of native cattle than other breeds of bovine animals in Estonia. Its milk has high milk, protein and lactose content and suits well for the production of cheeses, curd and yoghurts. Estonian Native Cattle is the cultural legacy of the Estonian people. This breed is considered the closest direct descendant of the aboriginal cattle, which was popular in Estonia and Livonia during previous centuries. Estonians have been keeping those cattle, because the local breed has been very hardy in our tough conditions. Purposeful breeding of the Estonian Native Cattle began in the beginning of the 19th century. There were 20 000 native cattle in Estonian farms before World War II, but in course of history, the number has decreased to around 1500. Less than 500 of those are pure-bred animals with data concerning their pedigree. Due to small number of animals, the breed belongs to the list of endangered breeds. In spite of everything, this small, hornless, pale red cattle have found a secure place in dairy farming – already since 1977, this breed forms 0.4% of all the dairy cattle in Estonia. Since 2000, the state has given support for breeding and conservation of Estonian Native Cattle. Thanks to this, as well as enthusiastic native cattle breeders, the number of Estonian Native Cattle has slowly started to increase.

    Farming & Adaptation. Sustainable adaptation of typical EU farming systems to climate change
    (AgriAdapt, 2019) Trötschler, Patrick; Leming, Ragnar; Métayer, Nicolas; De Miguel, Eduardo
    It is the late spring of 2016 in Europe, wheat and rapeseed have had a good growing season so far. The ears of wheat are in place and pollinators are rejoicing on the rapeseed flowers. However, it is getting very cloudy ... the wind picks up and it starts to rain. Although rain is normally welcome, it is not at this time of year, and certainly not in this way. This intense rainfall batters the crops with incredible strength, damaging them, causing lodging in cereals and affecting pollination. Yields will not be the same this season.

    Proceedings of the 13th Baltic Animal Breeding Conference : Pärnu, Estonia, 24-25 May 2007
    (Eesti Maaülikool, 2007) Eesti Maaülikool
    The annual Baltic Animal Breeding Conference starts its fifth round. Over the twelve years, the goal of this conference series has been to promote research on scientific aspects of breeding of different livestock breeds, conservation of genetic resources, and animal nutrition. In the farm animal sector increasing attention has been paid to quality and safety of animal production, competitiveness of farm animal production, animal and human health, and sustainability of farmed livestock. Throughout the years, good collaboration has been developed between the researchers from the Baltic and other countries. The research is international. There are some new financing opportunities designed to support a wide range of participants: from universities, through public authorities to small enterprises and researchers from various countries. We expect that the Seventh Research Framework Programme will broaden perspectives for further extensive collaboration and increase synergy between related research areas. We hope the 13th Baltic Animal Breeding Conference gives you an opportunity to exchange information and ideas and will facilitate further effective cooperation and mutual personal contacts. On behalf of the Organizing Committee, Prof. Haldja Viinalass

    XIII International Congress in Animal Hygiene, June 17-21, 2007, Tartu, Estonia "Animal health, animal welfare and biosecurity" : proceedings. Volume 1
    (Estonian University of Life Sciences, 2007) Estonian University of Life Sciences; Aland, Anders (editor)
    On behalf of both the Organising Committee and the Scientific Committee, I am pleased to welcome you in Tartu, Estonia, to participate at the XIII International Congress of the International Society for Animal Hygiene (ISAH). The ISAH (www.isah-soc.org) was founded in 1970 and has today members from 48 countries throughout the world. ISAH can be considered as a group of scientists contributing to efficient, sustainable animal farming with healthy animals, providing wholesome food in a sound environment. Veterinarians and non-veterinary academic scientists (animal science, agricultural economics, engineers, microbiologists, public health professionals, epidemiologists etc., etc) and respective professionals in animal husbandry, who work and/or do research and education in the field of animal hygiene, can apply for a membership of ISAH, and are most welcome to attend ISAH congresses. The first ISAH congress was held in Budapest in 1973. The last ISAH main congress took place in Warsaw, Poland in 2005 and the last in-between symposium in Saint-Malo, France in 2004. Starting from Warsaw congress in 2005, the ISAH, considering the need for a more flexible and frequent exchange of scientific and practical knowledge, organizes its congresses every second year. The present, XIII ISAH congress in Tartu, Estonia, in June 17–21, 2007 is organised under the device "Animal health, animal welfare and biosecurity”. The scientific programme, trying to follow the scope of the ISAH and receive the feedback from modern animal husbandry and food production, concentrates with more profoundness on the following subjects: interaction between the environment and health and welfare of individual animal and herds; managing animal health in large dairy units; ensuring animal welfare during transportation and slaughter; economical implications considering animals’ health; possibilities of precision livestock farming in maintaining good health and welfare of animals; measures for prevention the development and spread of diseases and pathogens in animals including those posing risk to human health (zoonoses); food safety relevant infections and contaminations such as residues in food derived from animals; influence of the animal production on the environment and public health. The Proceedings from the XIII ISAH Congress are herewith presented. The papers on lectures from invited speakers, oral and poster presentations from 11 parallel sessions are included in this excellent compilation. In general, the printed contribution to the ISAH-2007 congress illustrates clearly the broad scientific field of the ISAH and related to it activities. I hereby would like to express my most sincere gratitude in the address of ISAH-2007 organising and scientific committees. Special thanks go to Frens Conference Services for their excellent organizational and technical contribution and to AS Triip for their outstanding printing job of these proceedings. We also appreciate different companies and organisations for their considerable financial support which gave us the opportunity to keep the registration fees affordable. Finally, we thank all participants, contributors, chairpersons, organisational and technical assistants for your considerable efforts – you made the ISAH-2007 in Tartu real success. We wish you all interesting and pleasant congress and enjoyable stay in Tartu. A. Aland Editor Chairman of the ISAH-2007 Organising Committee
