La Tene period in Bohemia from Archaeozoological perspective
OPELKOVÁ, Monika
The main aim of this thesis is to approach the economic history of a less explored period in our territory, which is the La T?ne period. The first part of the diploma thesis is focused on farming in the settlements of this period in Central Europe with an emphasis on the Czech environment. The practical part consists of the archaeozoological analysis of an osteological assemblage from Modlešovice site in South Bohemia, in order to approach the economic background of the settlement and the socio-economical significance of animals for humans in the La Tene period. The species composition of the fauna and their anatomical representation, age, health condition, etc. are monitored.

Meat production and husbandary in developing and developed countries and its environmental impacts
Šenfeldová, Štěpánka ; Frouz, Jan (advisor) ; Matějíček, Luboš (referee)
Although animal husbandry is vitally important to most of us, it's impacts on nature are alarming. In this work I deal with the environmental impacts of keeping farm animals, in particular in the area of their impact on global climate change, soil contamination and pollution, atmospheric emissions, water management and the impact of animal husbandry on biodiversity. I also ask whether the impacts of animal husbandry differ in developed and developing regions of the world and look at future trends in animal husbandry. Meat consumption is rising significantly in developing countries, whereas in developed countries its production is, if anything, stagnant. The means of production differ fundamentally. The predominant form of production in the developed countries is intensive, which is primarily characterised by high concentration of the kept animals in halls and large production of manure, increased utility of animals and associated reduction in their numbers. The predominant form of production in developing countries is extensive, which is associated with increasing the numbers of animals, in particular by grazing. Keeping animals outside on pasture has a negative impacts on natural stands and the erosion process. A global reduction in meat consumption and the utilisation of new alternative...

Structure Of Organic Farming In South Bohemia
PEČTA, Jindřich
This thesis evaluates the structure of production in organic farming in the South Bohemia Region. It is divided into research, which includes agriculture and livestock components of organic farming and the practical part, where are the evaluated data obtained from databases ÚZEI, MA and the internal structure of the Faculty of Agriculture, specifically the Department of agro-ecosystems. The part of the research is divided into five main chapters. The introductory chapter describes the history of organic farming. The chapter Changes in the structure of agriculture, depictes conventional agriculture and an important evenst for the development of agriculture in the territory of the Czech Republic. The following chapter Specifications crop and livestock production enters up the main principles of organic farming. The next chapter describes the non-productive functions of agriculture, as soil protection, against erosion, etc. The search ends with the chapter titled The current structure, which depictes the current state of agriculture. In the practical part the structure of crop and livestock production in the South Bohemia and in the Czech republic. Region was investigated, which is subject of chapter five. It was being watched with the most common representation of animals, where in South Bohemia and the Czech Republic in organic farming predominates - cattle breeding suckler and sheep. In chapter five, is also disclosed the amount of produced milk and manufactured milk products. There was found representation of major crops and their individual income in the plant component , cereals dominate in South Bohemia and the Czech Republic . The work also focused on the representation of arable land and permanent grassland in South Bohemia and the Czech Republic.The practical part compares the data for South Bohemia with the data for the whole Czech Republic (eg. The percentage of plants on the entire arable land etc.).

Archaeozoology of the Neolithic of Bohemia
KOVAČIKOVÁ, Lenka
An archaeozoological analysis of the assemblages of animal bones and teeth of Neolithic (Linear and Stroked Pottery cultures; approx. 5500-4200 BC)settlements in Bohemia, provide new elements on the way of life of early farmers. By means of study of animal bones and teeth we can specify the role of domestic and hunting animals in the Neolithic economy, define the herd management strategies for main domestic animals and focus on the environmental reconstruction and investigation of births distribution of domestic animals (for exemple of cattle in the case of this study) through the analysis of the carbon and oxygen isotopic compositions of fossil tooth enamel bioapatite. To achieve these objectives, we can use, except standard archaeozoological methods and stable isotope analysis, more specific procedures, e.g. determination of damaged bones of animals using the ELISA test.
