Project Summary
Livestock and the
Environment: A Bibliography
with Abstracts—Volume VII
-------
The search topics of specific interest
include: (1) the environmental impact of
animal production activities on water,
groundwater, air, soil systems, health,
and aesthetics, (2) feedlot, confinement
pen, rangeland, and pasture land
management, including animal waste
management; the use of chemical fertil-
izers, manures, green manures, and
sewage sludge in conjunction with
animal production areas or animal
production-related areas; and pollution
effects of crop residues, soil losses and
sediments production from animal
production areas to animal production-
related areas, (3) legal, economic, and
social constraints, (4) research and
development.
The entries in this bibliography have
been assigned a specific cross reference
code. The code number consists of nine
digits arranged in the sequences of a
three-digit class code, a two-digit
number representing the year of publi-
cation or presentation; and a four-digit
accession number identifying each
article brought into the animal waste
information collection. The first grouping
identifies the class code of the document
according to the following format:
Class Code Index
Code Class
100 Technical journal paper
200 Conference proceeding paper
300 University or government
publication
400 Magazine article
500 Book or chapter from a book
600 Unpublished paper
700 Thesis
This publication consists of five
sections: Class Code Index, Animal
Information Category Index, Keyword
Index, Author Index, and Abstracts.
Author Index
This index lists all the authors cited in
the bibliography in alphabetical order.
To the right of each author entry is the
cross reference code of the article or
articles with which he is identified. An
example of the format is as follows:

Animal Information Category
Index
To provide a quick entry into the
abstract holdings of the collection, an
animal information code was developed.
This code utilizes an alphabetical entry
to signify a broad interest area and a
numerical digit to designate a more
specific topic under the broad interest
area. Each abstract in the collection is
classified according to this code and
could be listed under the most relevant
categories. This provides the user with
an easy entry into the abstract holdings
pertaining to his information needs.
The entries in the Animal Information
Category Index appear by accession
number under the code number as
found in the following example.
A1
5318
5319
5320
Keyword Index
The index consists of an alphabetical
listing of significant words in an article
or in the title of an article. To the right of
the keyword are the first 85 characters
