CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / This study aimed to establish the physiological parameters of ewes reared in agrosilvopasture system in the northeast semiarid and hence assess environmental conditions offered by the system. Thus, 22 crossbred ewes were selected and evaluated during the dry and rainy seasons, considering the following physiological parameters: heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), surface temperature (ST) and rectal temperature (RT) during shifts morning and afternoon. Six mini-stations and meteorological Data Loggers were used to record the data of temperature and relative humidity. It was calculated the Enthalpy Index of Comfort (EIC) for evaluating the thermal comfort. It was observed that the temperature was higher in the dry season compared to the rainy season and the RR presented significant difference (P <0.05) between the morning and afternoon during the rainy season. Statistical difference was observed (p <0.05) for both HR between the dry and rainy seasons, as between morning and afternoon shifts. As for the ST, a significant difference (p <0.05) was detected between the morning and afternoon and between the dry and rainy seasons. For TR, the data showed no statistical difference (p> 0.05) for the afternoon shift, between the two periods evaluated. The sexual behavior of animals was also monitored and, through an ethogram, the following parameters were evaluated: proximity to male (PM); urination (U); smells the male (SM); licks the male (LM); mounts the male (MM); remains immobile with the male sniffing (RIMS); wags/raises the tail (W/RT); mounts the females (MF); allows to assemble by females (AAF) and accepts the mount (AM). It was observed that PM, U, RIMS, SM and WRT showed a significant relationship (p <0.05) with acceptance of mount. The demonstration of the sexual conduct of females studied was not affected by the climatic parameters. The rectal temperatures were 38.1 ÂC for females that showed estrus during the morning and 38.7 ÂC for the afternoon shift. The animals showed normal sexual behavior in estrus and the rectal temperature of ewes remained in the normal limits. Overall, the system agrosilvopastoral evaluated in this study ensured favorable conditions for thermal comfort and well being of the animals. / Objetivou-se estabelecer os parÃmetros fisiolÃgicos de ovelhas criadas em sistema agrossilvipastoril no SemiÃrido Nordestino e, consequentemente, avaliar as condiÃÃes ambientais oferecidas aos animais por esse sistema de criaÃÃo. Assim, foram selecionadas 22 ovelhas mestiÃas, avaliadas durante as Ãpocas seca e chuvosa, quanto aos seguintes parÃmetros fisiolÃgicos: frequÃncia cardÃaca (FC); frequÃncia respiratÃria (FR); temperatura superficial (TS) e temperatura retal (TR), durante os turnos da manhà e tarde. Seis miniestaÃÃes meteorolÃgicas e Data Loggers foram utilizadas para o registro dos dados de temperatura e umidade relativa do ar. Foi calculado o Ãndice Entalpia de Conforto (IEC) para a avaliaÃÃo do conforto tÃrmico. Foi possÃvel observar que a temperatura mostrou-se mais elevada no perÃodo seco em comparaÃÃo ao perÃodo chuvoso; que a FR apresentou diferenÃa significativa (P<0,05) entre os turnos da manhà e da tarde no perÃodo chuvoso. Foi observada diferenÃa estatÃstica (p<0,05) para a FC tanto entre as Ãpocas seca e chuvosa, quanto entre os turnos manhà e tarde. Quanto à TS, esta apresentou diferenÃa (p<0,05) entre os turnos da manhà e tarde e entre as Ãpocas seca e chuvosa. Para TR, os dados mostraram que nÃo houve diferenÃa estatÃstica (p>0,05) para o turno da tarde, entre as duas Ãpocas avaliadas. Foi monitorada ainda a conduta sexual dos animais e, por meio de um etograma, foram avaliados os seguintes parÃmetros: proximidade ao macho (PM); micÃÃo (M); cheira o macho (CM); lambe o macho (LM); monta no macho (MM); mantÃm-se imÃvel com o macho cheirando (IMC); abana/levanta a cauda (ALC); monta nas fÃmeas (MF); deixa-se montar pelas fÃmeas (DMF) e aceita a monta (AM). Observou-se que PM, M, IMC, CM e ALC apresentaram uma relaÃÃo significativa (p < 0,05) com a aceitaÃÃo da monta. A demonstraÃÃo da conduta sexual das fÃmeas estudadas nÃo foi afetada pelos parÃmetros climÃticos. As temperaturas retais foram de 38,1 ÂC para as fÃmeas que apresentaram estro no turno da manhà e 38,7 ÂC para as do turno da tarde. Os animais apresentaram comportamento sexual normal de ovelhas em estro e a temperatura retal das ovelhas se manteve dentro da normalidade. De forma geral, o sistema agrossilvipastoril avaliado nesta pesquisa assegurou condiÃÃes favorÃveis de conforto tÃrmico e bem estar aos animais.

Subway is the leading fast food franchise chain having over 29.700 branches in 87 countries and differentiating itself among other fast foods by serving healthy food. The chain's focus for further development is concentrated on the countries in Central Europe (Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary and Croatia) and its 47 branches. However, the concept of supply chain in this region is disunited and leads to unfair high costs and high requirements from the branch management. Therefore there is an urgent need to unite the logistic system. The idea is that all the branches in the region will keep two or three local suppliers providing delivery of vegetables, drinks and local specialties; other goods will be distributed by single logistics company in the form of consolidated supply. The new logistic concept for provision of availability of products needed for proper work of all Subway branches in Central and Eastern Europe in context of integration, unification and simplification of logistic chains and its effective management is suggested in the work from the logistic service provider point of view. The task is solved in three parts -- transportation of goods from the producers to the warehouse, its delivery to individual branches, and warehouses itself including the cost calculations. The analysis of supplier's location and the location of supplied branches conclusion follows on locating the warehouse unit near Prague. The kinds of goods could be divided into frozen, cooled, dry and non-food goods. The consumption of individual kinds of goods is specified and the process of supplying the warehouse, means of transport, number of drivers, consolidation on distribution routes and its frequency is suggested. The supply of 47 branches will be done with special means of transport with combined shipping space enabling separate transport of individual kinds of goods by using the mobile screens; on 5 routes always between 7:00 to 23:00 in every country on the same day. The warehouse is a key place for delivery consolidation according to the needs of individual branches in accordance with FIFO principle. About 70 different articles of goods are stocked in three parts; respectively in truss racks with longitudinal filling with capacity of 168 pallet spaces in the height of 4 pallets. The manipulation is provided by low-lift and high-lift trucks. The limit warehouse is rectangular with the area of 122.4 m2, Monthly cost are 485,- Kč for pallet space, the costs in the frozen and cooled warehouse are higher by 15,-Kč per pallet space, that is 500,- Kč. The total costs to supply all the Subway branch restaurants in the whole region is the total sum of costs for good acquisition, its transfer from suppliers to the warehouse, warehouse operations and distribution of goods to individual branches.
