1.4 所述技术的可持续性声明

这里所描述的技术在土地退化方面是否存在问题,导致无法被认为是一种可持续的土地管理技术?:

注释:

The technology is not directly related to land degradation. However, it contribute to sustainable land management practices, as adoption of sexed semen technology pre-determines sex of calf in favor of female progeny (about 90% female and 10% male) that demands good management practices such as development of improved pasture, and improved dairy sheds.

2. SLM技术的说明

2.1 技术简介

技术定义:

Sexed semen technology produces gender-selected semen for artificially insemination of dairy cows. It ensures a higher proportion of female calves (more than 90%) which will ultimately contribute to the enhancement of milk production in the herd.

2.2 技术的详细说明

说明:

The Artificial Insemination (AI) program, initiated in 1987, has helped AI evolve into a widespread practice for dairy farms across Bhutan, with increasing accessibility due to improved road and transportation networks. The surge in demand for dairy products has positioned AI technology as key in transforming dairy farms from subsistence to market-oriented production systems.
A recent addition to the programme is the use of sexed semen, meaning sorting of semen before artificial insemination. Semen sorting involves categorizing bull semen based on the X and Y chromosomes, thus granting dairy land users control over calf gender. This empowers them to engage in selective breeding, enhancing desired traits and overall quality of dairy production.
Several key activities are integral to this technology:
•Rigorous selection of bulls with desirable traits related to milk production and overall health.
•Collection and preservation of semen from selected bulls.
•Semen sorting technology to separate X and Y chromosome-bearing sperm.
•Artificial insemination of dairy cows by extension agents who use sorted semen.
The benefits are multiple because achieving a higher proportion of heifer calves helps dairy land users to enhance breeding strategies and maintain desired traits within the herd. Economic benefits follow through increased dairy production and improved cattle health.
Land users express satisfaction with the technology and its impact. However, some households report problems with conception rates after AI with sexed semen. Despite these drawbacks, the overall benefits to dairy land users and the industry outweigh the limitations.

6. 影响和结论性说明

6.1 该技术的现场影响

社会经济效应

生产

饲料生产

降低
增加
SLM之前的数量:

The cattle were normally grazed in the forest, so no fodder were produced.

SLM之后的数量:

Some of the land that were left fallowed were used for fodder production.

饲料质量

降低
增加
SLM之前的数量:

Local cattles can feed on wild fodder grasses and trees

SLM之后的数量:

Improved cattles require quality fodder so they started growing improved fodders species like Super Napier grass, Napier grass, etc.

畜牧生产

降低
增加
SLM之前的数量:

5 liters of milk were produced from each dairy cow every day

SLM之后的数量:

15 liters of milk are produced by each dairy cow everyday

注释/具体说明:

The quantification was based on the amount of milk produced.

生产区域

降低
增加
SLM之前的数量:

5 acres of cultivated land

SLM之后的数量:

1 acre of cultivated land

注释/具体说明:

The land user now focuses mostly on dairy production and has converted some of the lands into pasture for grazing purposes while the rest has been left fallow. This is due to the absence of labour in the household.

收入和成本

农业投入费用

增加
降低
注释/具体说明:

This is due to the decrease in the cultivated land.

农业收入

降低
增加
注释/具体说明:

Due to the increase in dairy production, the land user is greatly benefited from it.

工作量

增加
降低
注释/具体说明:

Since the land user focuses primarily on dairy, the amount of workload has relatively increased compared to the past, where she would only focus on agriculture, only.

社会文化影响

食品安全/自给自足

减少
改良
SLM之前的数量:

Mostly consumed food they produced in their household.

SLM之后的数量:

Diverse food products are available, together with dairy products.

6.4 成本效益分析

技术收益与技术建立成本相比如何(从土地使用者的角度看)?
短期回报:

积极

长期回报:

积极

注释:

The benefits of the technology are very high. The recurrent cost of AI is very low as it is provided for free by the Royal Government of Bhutan.
The land users also get the desired sex of the cattle they want (female cattle).
The return they get from improved cattle is very high(high milk yield).

6.5 技术采用

  • > 50%
如若可行,进行量化(住户数量和/或覆盖面积):

28 households

在所有采用这项技术的人当中,有多少人是自发的,即未获得任何物质奖励/付款?:
  • 0-10%
注释:

The technology can only be implemented by the extension agent since the sexed semen is only procured by them and artificial insemination is also done by the extension agent.

6.6 适应

最近是否对该技术进行了修改以适应不断变化的条件?:

6.7 该技术的优点/长处/机会

土地使用者眼中的长处/优势/机会
Produces desirable traits of offspring
Improved breed quality
Enhances dairy production
Produces female cattle
Manure from the cattle is used for revitalising the farmland.
编制者或其他关键资源人员认为的长处/优势/机会
It helps improve the land users livelihood by benefiting them economically.
Sexed semen technology produces desired sex cattle which also reduces the recurrent cost of doing AI again and again to get desired sex cattle.
Sexed semen technology can ultimately reduce number of unproductive cow which can reduce land degradation and reduce greenhouse gas emmission.

6.8 技术的弱点/缺点/风险及其克服方法

土地使用者认为的弱点/缺点/风险 如何克服它们?
Sometimes the cattle do not conceive even after insemination. The possibility of a cow not conceiving after an AI is very low, but it is recommended that the land user consult with the livestock agent or conduct AI again.
编制者或其他关键资源人员认为的弱点/缺点/风险 如何克服它们?
Sexed semen technology reduces the male population, getting quality breeding bull will be difficult in future. Allow the dairy cow to mate naturally once in their lifetime
Semen produced from the technology may become ineffective during the sorting procedure. Follow appropriate procedures and double-check equipment.
