The second in this slow-moving series celebrating #AGSY_200volumes! We are still in the 1976-1980 slice of volumes and this time highlight a theme of many of the early papers in AGSY being focussed on animal production.

While this might be standard methodology today, it was novel for its time. Its legacy is such that more than 45 years on there have been more than 20 citations in the last two years! 5/6
AGSY is grateful for these early authors – they laid a solid framework for the journal and continue to contribute even today.
All these papers are available under promotional open access from sciencedirect.com/journal/ag….
Next up 1980-1989!

With the Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI), AGSY is calling for submissions to a special issue " Asia’s Agriculture-Livestock-Forestry Nexus". See adb.org/adbi/research/call-f… and sciencedirect.com/journal/ag… for details.
@jtimsina2 is the AGSY Editor
Dr Dil Bahadur Rahut of @ADBInstitute is the Guest Editor.
This is the first in a series highlighting papers from the first 200 volumes of Agricultural Systems.
Two of the most cited papers from 1976 to 1980 were about modelling cattle production by Saunders and Cartwright.

#AGSY_200volumes
sciencedirect.com/science/ar… described a general model of a cattle production system and sciencedirect.com/science/ar… described its implementation.
Their impact on modelling of cattle systems is evident in that they are still being cited some 45 years since original publication.

This is an example of the early ground-breaking from the animal folks at Texas A&M.
Both papers made freely available to mark 200 volumes.
