Human-Animal Interactions: Exploring their Impact on Animal Productivity

Clara Nobis

Human-animal interactions have long been recognized as significant factors influencing animal well-being, behavior, and productivity. This abstract provides an overview of the diverse aspects and impacts of human-animal interactions. Positive interactions, such as gentle handling, appropriate training, and provision of good welfare, contribute to reduced stress levels, improved animal health, and enhanced productivity. Effective communication and training methods foster cooperation and ease of handling, leading to increased productivity and reduced risks. Biosecurity measures and disease management protocols implemented through human-animal interactions help minimize disease transmission and maintain healthy animal populations. Furthermore, recognizing and addressing the emotional well-being of animals through positive interactions and appropriate environmental conditions can positively influence productivity. By understanding and optimizing human-animal interactions, we can promote animal welfare, enhance productivity, and strengthen the human-animal bond, contributing to sustainable and thriving animal production systems.
