A total of 30 Holstein Cows (multiparous and nulliparous) in the experimental farm of Hiroshima University were included in the experiment. A five-point scale body condition scoring system was used to assess BCS of individual cows monthly. Visual observation, special calendar for dairy cattle management, heating detection patches, automatic heating detection system and hormone treatment were used for heating detection of dairy cattle. Artificial insemination (AI) was done by experienced and skillful technicians following to successful heating detection. Body Condition of every cow that received AI was evaluated and recorded on the day of breeding separately. Rectal palpation and ultrasound system were used to dete...

Generally all disaster can be divided into two parts which are natural and manmade disasters, which landslide can be counted as natural disaster, but all land failures are not natural, some of them are as result of human irresponsible activity on the ecosystems and environmental biosphere. For instance miners for extraction of underground resources make deep tunnels and after the finishing leave the area without any reformation, this types of irresponsible activities can make disasters. Northern province of Afghanistan (Badakhshan and Takhar) is prone to landslide and severe flooding during the rainy seasons, which occurrence of previous landslides caused many fatalities, displacements and property losses. So for reducing the disasters and land failure we need mitigation and prevention throughout of making dam, drainage systems, ditches, drainage tunnels, removal works and plantation, forestation and retaining walls, these systems of prevention have been accommodated in other countries and recognized effectual. In this paper natural disasters, types of landslides and its effect on human life, biodiversity and resources are discussed, management of landslide, prevention techniques, mitigations are illustrated.
