A study on environmental aspects and associated impacts of selected farms management practices / Nur Ezira Ramli

Livestock farming contributes the production of food at the expense of environmental degradation on air, water and soil/land. The qualitative study, an initial environmental review (IER) was conducted to identify overall farm operation and management practice via various environmental aspects and...
