Milk costs: exploring the economics of producing one litre of cow milk
Welcome to our new audio article from Ceva Sounds Ruminants. The topic of today is Milk costs: exploring the economics of producing one litre of cow milk. A content developed by João Pedro Nascimento, Researcher at FeedInov CoLab.
In this episode, we explore the key factors behind the cost of producing milk and why understanding them is essential for efficient dairy farm management. Drawing on recent European data, the article examines how production costs and milk revenues have evolved, identifies major cost drivers such as feed, fodder, energy and depreciation, and highlights the importance of monitoring cost coverage. It also explains how better feed efficiency, resource management, animal health and productive longevity can help farmers control costs while reducing environmental impacts, showing how profitability and sustainability can work together to strengthen the resilience of dairy production.

Can Better Fertility Reduce Livestock Greenhouse Gas Emissions?
Welcome to our new audio article from Ceva Sounds Ruminants. The topic of today is “Can Better Fertility Reduce Livestock Greenhouse Gas Emissions?" A content developed by Pietro Sampaio Baruselli, Laís Ângelo de Abreu, Federico Randi and Vanessa Romário de Paula.
In this episode, we explore how improving reproductive efficiency can help reduce greenhouse gas emission intensity in dairy and beef cattle production. Discover how better pregnancy rates, shorter calving intervals, increased productive longevity, and technologies such as fixed-time artificial insemination, resynchronisation, early pregnancy diagnosis and embryo transfer can help herds produce more with the resources already available. We also look at the important role veterinarians and farmers play in designing effective fertility programs that combine reproductive performance, profitability and environmental efficiency, making reproductive management a practical tool for more sustainable cattle production.

Low Stress Cattle Handling: Designing Facilities For Calm And Efficient Cow Flow
Welcome to our new audio article from Ceva Sounds Ruminants. The topic of today is Low Stress Cattle Handling: Designing Facilities For Calm And Efficient Cow Flow. A content developed by Cláudia Costa, Researcher at FeedInov CoLAB.
In this episode, we explore how facility design, cattle behaviour and good stockmanship work together to promote calm, predictable and efficient cow flow. You will learn how understanding the flight zone and point of balance can help handlers guide cattle with minimal pressure, and how well-designed alleys, gates and waiting areas can support natural movement while improving animal and handler safety. We also cover practical considerations such as adequate space, non-slip flooring, clear pathways, reduced visual distractions, quiet gate operation and regular facility maintenance. Together, these principles provide a practical foundation for low-stress cattle handling and safer, more efficient routine management.
