Abstract
Stress is the biological reaction when the animal is facing a potential threat to its welfare, which in farm animals can reduce productivity. Productivity may be defined as a level of improved performance or fitness or a quantified production trait of an animal, which can be measured by terms of meat, milk, wool, and egg quality and quantity in most production farm animals. In Edition 1 of this Research Topic, we show a collection of 6 peer reviewed articles and 2 reviews, which highlight the different minimally invasive methods and techniques that are already in use or currently in development in order to monitor different types of stress in livestock animals and methods of reducing it.
