| A variety of products incorporating single aspects of organic production systems such as lower inputs of pesticides, food additives or concentrated animal feed is found on the food market (referred to as low-input products hereafter). In our study, we analysed how consumers react to low-input products in a purchase simulation with certified organic, conventional and low-input products. In the purchase simulations, each participant was asked to make three consecutive purchase decisions, one each for milk, yogurt and apples. The results of a cluster analysis revealed one cluster with a high preference for organic products and three clusters that featured considerable shares of low-input purchases. The latter clusters, however, were not characterised by a... |

| In organic farming there is an ongoing discussion on piglet castration without anaesthesia and possible alternatives to this practice due to animal welfare concerns. Consumer acceptance of alternatives to piglet castration without anaesthesia plays an important role in this discussion. This contribution examines organic consumers’ attitudes towards piglet castration without anaesthesia and the alternatives castration with anaesthesia and analgesia, immunocastration and fattening of entire males. Additionally, consumers’ willingness-to-pay for the alternatives is determined. The results show that animal welfare, food safety and health concerns influence consumers’ attitudes towards the alternatives. However, the individual perception of those aspects is... |

| Ziel des Projektes war es, Einstellungen von Verbrauchern, Produzenten, Verarbeitern, Händlern und Tierschutzverbänden zur betäubungslosen Ferkelkastration und möglichen Alternativen zu untersuchen und Empfehlungen für die Öko-Landwirtschaft abzuleiten. Einstellungen und Zahlungsbereitschaft von insgesamt 89 Verbrauchern von Öko-Produkten wurden in Fokusgruppen mit anschließender Vickrey-Auktion ermittelt. Die betäubungslose Ferkelkastration war den Verbrauchern kaum bekannt. Sie wurde überwiegend negativ bewertet und passte nicht ins Bild der Öko-Tierhaltung. Wichtige Kriterien für die Bewertung der Alternativen waren Tierschutz, Gesundheit, Lebensmittelsicherheit, Geschmack und Kosten. Die Immunokastration löste starke Bedenken aus. Die Kastration mit... |

| An increasing number of conventional products incorporating single aspects of organic production systems such as lower inputs of pesticides, food additives or concentrated animal feed (referred to as low-input products hereafter) are found on the food market. By means of choice experiments, we explore consumers’ buying behaviour regarding organic, conventional and low-input food in Germany. Our analyses show that lowinput products mostly substitute conventional products. We identify two main groups of buyers who are interested in low-input products: Firstly, consumers who buy little organic and secondly, consumers who buy particular product groups in organic quality and others in conventional. We suggest that the organic sector should take... |

| Organic dairy goat farming is gaining importance in Germany and organic goat milk products become increasingly popular among consumers. At the same time, marketing of the goat kids, which are a by-product of dairy goat farming, is difficult. Consumer awareness and acceptance of kid meat is relatively low as it is not a traditional meat product consumed in Germany. Additionally, a lack in marketing structures besides direct marketing and high production costs contribute to a difficult market situation for organic dairy goat farms. There are similar problems in other European countries. One approach to explore marketing opportunities is to increase consumers’ awareness and acceptance of organic kid meat. A consumer survey was conducted in grocery stores in... |

| Surgical piglet castration without pain relief has been banned in organic farming in the EU since the beginning of 2012. Alternative methods therefore need to be implemented that improve animal welfare and solve the underlying problem of boar taint. This paper explores German organic consumers' preferences for piglet castration without pain relief and three alternative methods. In an innovative approach using a multi-criteria decision making procedure, qualitative data from focus group discussions were compared with quantitative results from Vickrey auctions. Overall, participants preferred all alternatives to castration without pain relief. Different aspects influenced willingness-to-pay for the methods. Animal welfare was important for the evaluation of... |

| Die Öko-Milchziegenhaltung gewinnt in Deutschland zunehmend an Bedeutung und Öko-Ziegenmilchprodukte erfreuen sich wachsender Beliebtheit bei Verbrauchern. Die Vermarktung der Ziegenlämmer ist jedoch schwierig, da Ziegenlammfleisch bei deutschen Verbrauchern weitgehend unbekannt ist. Zudem bestehen neben der Direktvermarktung kaum Absatzstrukturen für Ziegenlammfleisch und die ökologische Aufzucht der Tiere ist vergleichsweise teuer. Diese Situation kann zu ökonomischen Problemen der Milchziegen haltenden Betriebe führen. Ziel des Projekts war daher die Entwicklung eines Konzeptes zur Vermarktung von Öko-Ziegenlammfleisch aus melkenden Betrieben. Dafür sollten Maßnahmen zur Verbesserung des Absatzes von Öko-Ziegenlammfleisch entwickelt und erprobt werden.... |

| In order to prevent the occurrence of boar taint, almost all male piglets are routinely castrated in Europe. Usually, this surgical intervention is carried out without the use of anaesthesia or analgesia. Recently, animal welfare concerns over this practice have been raised and efforts are made to ban surgical castration of piglets without anaesthesia. Therefore, it is necessary to find alternatives to piglet castration without anaesthesia. An important factor for the implementation of possible alternatives is consumers’ acceptance of and willingness to pay for pork which was produced using these alternatives. Existing research on this topic mainly focused on consumer reactions to meat form entire male pigs. Only a few studies analysed consumer... |

| While organic goat milk products are becoming increasingly popular in Germany, marketing of kid meat is difficult as it is an unfamiliar product for consumers and there are hardly any marketing structures besides direct marketing. In order to introduce organic kid meat to consumers, we conducted sales promotions offering product samples. An accompanying consumer survey provided data on potential customer groups for organic kid meat. Participants’ sensory evaluations of the sampled meat were very positive as well as their perceptions of other product attributes. Stated likeliness to buy kid meat was high. Significant differences between potential buyers and non-buyers could be identified regarding their age and consumption of organic food. Also reasons for... |
