The chapter also addresses the issue of sustainable water use. The third chapter provides a compilation of current research which highlights the need to further examine dietary mitigation strategies in ruminant production systems at a whole farm level. The chapter also discusses the range of nutritional strategies available for enteric- and manure-CH4 abatement. The fourth chapter focusses on the role of the ruminant microbiome in methane emissions and the potential genetic factors affecting microbial composition and emission reduction. The final chapter highlights the growing issue of food loss and waste (FLW) in countries with developed dairy value chains. The chapter discusses the key stages and management practices for reducing FLW in dairy value chains, as well as how decision-making can be improved.

Essay from the year 2011 in the subject English - Discussion and Essays, grade: 13, University of Louvain (Facult de philosophie, arts et lettres), course: Comp tence interactive en anglais: l'anglais acad mique, language: English, abstract: Facebook has become the state-of-the-art communication tool. As a matter of fact, the renowned social network enables users to send emails, chat, share pictures and play games to name but a few (Graham, 2008). This is the reason why business companies are more and more keen to benefit from the famous social group (Annez de Taboada, 2010). This study investigates the relationship between Facebook and the business world. The aim of the investigation is twofold: first it depicts the level of importance of Facebook for companies and to what extent they are eager to use it. Secondly but most importantly, it examines the methods by which this high-tech communication tool is used by certain businesses for their external and internal communication (marketing strategy, technique of recruitment, internal communication, etc.). Questionnaires will be dispatched to a wide range of firms from all types and all sizes to draw up a large panel of statistics. The outcomes will reveal why and how companies use (or do not use) Facebook. The results will also indicate whether those statistics are contingent to the type and size of company (Balaqu , 2010).
