The U.S. sheep industry is complex, multifaceted, and rooted in history and tradition. The dominant feature of sheep production in the United States, and, thus, the focus of much producer and policy concern, has been the steady decline in sheep and lamb inventories since the mid-1940s. Although often described as "an industry in decline," this report concludes that a better description of the current U.S. sheep industry is "an industry in transition."

Globally, the way the animal production industry copes with infectious diseases is changing. The (excessive) use of antimicrobials is under debate and it is becoming standard practice to implement thorough biosecurity plans on farms to prevent the entry and spread of pathogenic micro-organisms. Not only in farm animal production, but also in facilities where companion animals are kept, including in veterinary practices and clinics, awareness of the beneficial implications of a good biosecurity plan has raised. The book Biosecurity in Animal Production and Veterinary Medicine is the first compilation of both fundamental aspects of biosecurity practices, and specific and practical information on the application of the biosecurity measures in different animal production and animal housing settings.

Meat production and consumption are increasing around the world and yet meat is criticised on the basis of its effects on human health and its damaging effects on the environment. This book summarises the latest information on the nutritional value of meat, its role in human health and its contributions to greenhouse gas emissions. New production systems which will improve the nutritional value of meat and increase the efficiency of meat production, thereby minimising harmful effects on the environment, are discussed. The role of meat as a source of the valuable n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids is considered and the case for organic meat production is made. Chapters consider the factors affecting the demand for meat and the challenges facing legislators in the areas of climate change, nutrition and sustainability of meat production. Finally, the increasing importance of international trade in meat and the need for a global response on nutrition and climate change issues are considered.
