Resource Allocation Theory Applied To Farm Animal Production

This chapter has shown that many theories on natural selection and evolution have something to do with food resources: acquisition, utilization and allocation. Furthermore, these theories and thoughts date back (at least) to the mid-19th century and have been developed by people from different d...

description This chapter has shown that many theories on natural selection and evolution have something to do with food resources: acquisition, utilization and allocation.
