This paper reviews the meat-type chicken breeding with local breeds in China. The quality chickens are defined as purebred final products of local breeds, and semi-quality chickens as crossbreds of local breeds with specialized broiler (sire or dam) lines from western breeding organizations. The present status of the chicken production and the market in China, in comparison with the western countries, is reviewed, indicating that there is large market demand for (semi-) quality chickens in the present and future China. Breeding for (semi-) quality chickens emphasizes the sensory quality of chicken meat. The present status of breeding for (semi-) quality chickens with the local breeds is illustrated, including breeding goals and the existing breeding programs. The potential role of local breeds in breeding programs in China is discussed in relation to both providing higher quality (than commercial hybrid broilers) of chicken meat for the local market and meeting the objectives of genetic resource conservation. Besides, further research topics on breeding for (semi-) quality chickens are suggested.

최근 새만금 농업용지에 아그로파크 개념을 적용하기 위한 시도가 이루어지고 있어 새만금 간척지에 현실적이고 적합한 아그로파크 개념을 반영한 농업용지를 개발할 필요가 있다. 그러나, 현재의 새만금 토지이용계획 상 주요 11개 단지들은 네덜란드의 아그로파크처럼 같은 장소에서 서로 다른 기능들이 공간적으로 네트워크로 연결된 개념보다는 각각의 기능을 가진 독립된 공간처럼 단지별로 나누어져 있어 단지들 간 종합적으로 연결된 개념으로 보기 힘들다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 새만금 농업용지에 아그로파크를 도입할 수 있는 두가지 방안을 제시하였다. 첫째, 현재의 토지이용계획을 고려하지 않았을 때, 어느 특정 구역에 자원 순환 등의 연결고리를 갖고 생산, 가공, 유통이 한 곳에서 이루어질 수 있는 아그로파크를 조성하여 확대할 수 있도록 토지이용계획이 수정될 수 있는 방안이다. 이 경우 농업용지는 지속적으로 아그로파크들의 확장에 따라 단계적으로 확대 개발될 수 있고, 장기적인 관점이 필요한 방안이다. 둘째, 현재의 토지이용계획을 고려할 때, 아그로파크 기능 발휘를 위해 농업용지 각 단지별로 연계 가능 기능들을 연결하는 방안으로, 아그로파크 시범단지를 조성하는 것을 제시하였다. 두 경우 모두 아그로파크 기능 발휘를 위해 새만금 농업용지 종합관리센터가 구축되어야 한다. 향후 성공적인 아그로파크 조성을 위해 이 두가지 방안에 대한 세부 계획과 설계 기술 개발을 위해 지속적인 연구가 필요하다.

High rate sulfate reduction under acidic conditions opens possibilities for new process flow sheets that allow the selective recovery of metals from mining and metallurgical waste and process water. However, knowledge about high-rate sulfate reduction under acidic conditions is limited. This paper investigates sulfate reduction in a membrane bioreactor at a controlled pH of 5. Sulfate and formate were dosed using a pH-auxostat system while formate was converted into hydrogen, which was used for sulfate reduction. Sulfide was removed from the gas phase to prevent sulfide inhibition. This study shows a high-rate sulfate-reducing bioreactor system for the frrst time at pH 5, with a volumetric activity of 188 mmol $SO_4^{2-}$/I/d and a specific activity of 81 mmol $SO_4^{2-}$volatile suspended solids/d. The microbial community at the end of the reactor run consisted of a diverse mixed population including sulfate-reducing bacteria.

A general household survey was carried out in the village of Sonoageng in East Java, Indonesia with the aim to assess their socio-economic status, and the crop and livestock production system prevailing in the area. Of the households interviewed (164), 52% are landless, 35% own land or have a combination of own and shared land, and 12% do not own land but have access to land by sharing. Nearly two thirds (65%) of the households raise cattle; most of them own animals, 8% reared shared animals only. The dominant crop was rice; other crops grown were soya bean, groundnut, maize and sugar cane. Nearly half (47%) the household income was derived from off-farm work (non-agricultural activities), 33% from crops, 13% from livestock (mainly cattle), and 7% from agricultural labour. Most households kept 1 to 2 animals and only 21 out of 164 households earned more than Rp. 500,000 (~250 US$) per annum from livestock. The most prevalent type of livestock production in the area could be characterized as small-scale cow/calf operation, either by landless households or those with <0.4 ha of land.

This study aimed to quantify the impact of crossbreeding at farm level, in mixed farm systems in Gujarat. Households with crossbred cattle did not differ from households without crossbreds in terms of farm resources, crop gross margins and off-farm income. The use of crossbred animals did increase livestock gross margins by 64% and household income by 22%. The three agro-ecological zones included in this study differed considerably according to farm system and household income. However, in all three zones, households with crossbreds had higher livestock gross margins than households without crossbreds. There was no real difference in work load and labour division between households with and without crossbreds. There was also no difference in the use of bullocks for draught purposes between the two types of households. In particular buffaloes are being replaced by crossbred cattle. There was a large variation in farm income, largely because of land area. The milk offake per average cow and the number of buffaloes also related positively to farm income in both types of households. Crossbreeding has proved technically and financially viable in different Gujarat mixed farming systems. It can be concluded that crossbreeding is an important development option for landless farmers.
