Marginal and unstable environmental conditions force stockbreeders in drylands to develop adaptive strategies to ensure stability of production. In intensive market-oriented pastoral systems, the partial substitution of rangeland forage production by external feed increases the influence of commodity prices in stockbreeders&amp;#8217; decisions, which become increasingly decoupled from environmental constraints. In Mediterranean countries of the European Union (EU), Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) subsidies also influence agricultural practices, potentially increasing environmental impacts. By modeling subsidy allocation to sheep and goat breeders in Crete, we showed that livestock subsidies for Less Favoured Areas (LFA) stimulated flock growth up to a...

Feeding sainfoin to goats – influence on milk and cheese quality and yield
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Heckendorn, Felix; Schwery, Moritz; Volken, Herbert; Maurer, Veronika; Simonnet, Xavier.
Although the administration of sainfoin is associated with anthelmintic effects, information on the consequences of feeding this legume on product quality is scarce. In the present study we looked at milk quality and yield of goats fed either sainfoin or a non-tanniferous control forage. Twelve lactating goats of the alpine breed were used for the study. They received grass/clover hay for a period of 15 days (grass clover feeding period, GCFP). Then the feed was switched to sainfoin hay (approx. 90 % of daily intake) for another 15 days (sainfoin feeding period, SFP). Both feeds were supplemented with concentrates in order to guarantee isoproteic and isoenergetic feeding throughout the trial. Milk yield and quality (fat, protein, energy and urea) were...

Organic goat and sheep dairy in the  Netherlands
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Eekeren, van, Nick.
The dairy sector is the largest organic sector in the Netherlands. Not only cows, but also goats and sheep are kept to produce milk and a variety of cheeses. Although a significant share of total organic dairy production is exported, domestic consumers are continuing to buy more and more Dutch organic dairy. To facilitate organic dairy farmers, Wageningen UR and Louis Bolk Institute carry out a variety of research aimed specifically at organic dairy production.  The report contains sector facts, sector aspirations, current affairs and research projects.

Untersuchungen zu Liegenischen für Milchziegen
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Barth, Kerstin; Ordolff, Dieter; Mayer, Claus.
The legislative rules of keeping ruminants on organic farms do not differentiate between the requirements of the different species for the housing systems. Thus, the types of locomotion typical for goats (e. g. climbing, jumping) have not to take in consideration in stables designed for goat keeping. Some farmers offer their animals elevated resting platforms (niches), but data concerning the preferences of the goats and the labour management of such areas are not available. A herd of non-lactating goats (breed: Bunte Deutsche Edelziege) was parted in six experimental groups with ten animals in each group. Over a period of seven days the animals were kept separated in a part of the stable furnished with resting niches. Twelve niches were arranged on three...

Organic beef and sheep production in the uplands
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: ANON,.
The organic unit at ADAS Redesdale was established to evaluate the physical and financial implications of converting a progressive hill/upland unit to an organic system. Conversion of 400 ha, 600 breeding ewes (in 3 flocks) and 35 suckler cows was completed in 1993. One organic flock (Organic Dipper ) was managed as a direct comparison with a conventionally managed system (Conventional Dipper).  During the early years following conversion, an organic system was developed which, financially, enabled the organic unit to compete favourably with a comparable conventional system. This was on the basis of maintaining similar stocking rates, and pushing the organic system towards maximum output.  As the experiment progressed, it became increasingly clear that a...

Monitoring the welfare of sheep in conventional and organic farms using an ANI 35 L derived method
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Napolitano, Prof Fabio; De Rosa, Dr Giuseppe; Ferrante, Dr Valentina; Braghieri, Dr Ada; Barbieri, S.
The present study was undertaken to evaluate the inter-observer reliability of a welfare monitoring scheme to be applied to sheep, and compare the welfare state of the animals between 10 organic and 10 conventional sheep farms. No significant differences were observed between organic and conventional farms in terms of housing characteristics and animal based parameters (P&gt;0.10). This result may be due to the fact that most of the farms, both conventional and organic, based their farming systems on an extensive use of the land by grazing animals. The monitoring protocol proved to be feasible (the mean time needed to perform the assessment of welfare was 45 min per farm) and reliable: a significant correlation between observers was observed for total...

Biologische Helminthenkontrolle bei Weidetieren mit nematophagen Pilzen
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Hertzberg, Hubertus; Larsen, Michael; Maurer, Veronika.
Die Kontrolle gastrointestinaler Nematoden bei Weidetieren basiert seit fünf Jahrzehnten nahezu ausschließlich auf dem Einsatz von Anthelminthika. Die derzeit vor allem bei den Schaf- und Ziegennematoden weltweit zunehmende Resistenzproblematik erfordert die Entwicklung neuer, innovativer Kontrollstrategien, wobei die biologische Bekämpfung auf der Basis nematophager Pilze den derzeit erfolgversprechensten Ansatz darstellt. Erste Versuche zur Anwendung dieser Pilze bei Pflanzen und Tieren erfolgten bereits in den 30er Jahren, doch erst in den 90er Jahren führten Experimente zur Prüfung der Passagefähigkeit einzelner Spezies durch den Magen-Darm-Trakt von Rindern zur Isolation von Duddingtonia flagrans, womit ein maßgeblicher Fortschritt erzielt wurde....

In contrast to the increasing demand for dairy goat products in Germany, a market for goat kid meat as a related product is more or less non-existing. Thus, the objective of our study was to develop a concept for organic goat kid meat production for dairy goat farms. In collaboration with a wholesaler, organic dairy goat farmers and marketing research the experimental part of our study was to find out if cross-breeding of meat-goats could improve meat quality and performance of fattening goat kids together with other factors like concentrate ratio of the diet, housing system as well as raising strategy. First results indicate that a low input level of concentrates of 10 % of total dry matter intake per goat kid and year is not sufficient to meet the...

EX-POST EVALUATION OF GHG EMISSIONS AND ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN ORGANIC AND CONVENTIONAL MEAT SHEEP FARMS IN FRANCE OVER 26 YEARS
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Dakpo, Hervé; LAIGNEL, Gabriel; Benoit, Marc.
The environmental impact of livestock is an important issue, and organic farming (OF) is particularly questioned about greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions. This study aims at comparing GHG emissions and non-renewable energy consumption in meat sheep production, in OF and conventional farming systems. These two criteria have been calculated ex-post on 1261 French year-farms monitored over 26 years. The functional unit used is the carcass weight and allocation between meat and wool is mass based. Regarding GHG emissions, the results show that organic farms emits 5% less GHG than conventional ones, with a higher proportion of methane and less indirect CO2 associated to less inputs use. Given the methodological difficulties, it is hard to argue if carbon...

Production de viande ovine en agriculture biologique comparée à l’élevage conventionnel :  résultats technicoéconomiques d’exploitations de plaine et de montagne du nord du Massif central
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: G., LAIGNEL; M., BENOIT.
Durant les cinq dernières années, l’Agriculture Biologique (AB) a connu, en  France, un développement inégalé : entre 1997 et 2002, la superficie conduite  en AB a été multipliée par trois et les effectifs de brebis par cinq. Cette  croissance s’accompagne d’un important besoin de références, en particulier  technico-économiques. L’observation sur trois années de 24 exploitations  ovines allaitantes en AB, comparées à 39 exploitations ovines allaitantes  conventionnelles, met en évidence une certaine spécificité des élevages AB,  tout en confirmant les principaux facteurs qui déterminent la marge par brebis  et le revenu. Etant donné le prix des aliments concentrés en AB, 1,8 fois  supérieur à celui des conventionnels, la quantité consommée est...

Eine Erhebung zur Parasitenkontrolle auf biologisch  wirtschaftenden Schaf- und Ziegenbetrieben in der Schweiz
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Bollinger, SB; Moakes, Simon; Stolze, Matthias; Werne, S.
To determine the current control measures for strointestinal nematodes (GIN) on Swiss organic small ruminant farms, a phone questionnaire was developed and conducted. The survey also aimed to assess the understanding and implementation of  possible alternative GIN control options. In total, 52 meat sheep and 58 dairy goat farm questionnaires were completed, and it was found that in general, farmers were aware of the potential benefit of an adequate grazing management to reduce GIN infection. However, practical realisation was often limiting. On average it was stated that adult meat sheep and dairy goats were drenched 1.5 and 1.3 times per animal and year, respectively, whilst lambs and kids were treated 1.6 and 1.3 times per animal and year, respectively....

Organic livestock farming systems in the Massif Central: evolution (2008-2011) and analysis of the technical and economic performances and drivers
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Veysset, Patrick; Tauriac, R; Benoit, M.; Belvèze, J; Patout, O; Reuillon, J.-L.; Morin, E; Vallas, M.
The “Organic Farming Massif Central” hub and fifteen partners lead a program on sustainability and on the technical and economic operation of OF livestock systems in the Massif Central. This systemic and multi-year study (2008-2011) is based on data from a constant sample over four years, from 56 farms comprising four types of products: cattle and sheep, dairy and meat. Over 4 years, the technical and economic results are quite stable, and at a good level, but with great variability inter-farms. With lower labor productivity, but with a more diversified crop rotation, a good food self-sufficiency and good technical skills, the farms with the highest income get an income more than four times higher than the farms with the lowest income .

Antiparasitic activity of chicory (Cichorium intybus) and its natural bioactive compounds in livestock: a review
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Peña-Espinoza, Miguel; Valente, Angela H.; Thamsborg, Stig M.; Simonsen, Henrik T.; Boas, Ulrik; Enemark, Heidi L.; López-Muñoz, Rodrigo; Williams, Andrew R.
Increasing drug resistance in gastrointestinal (GI) parasites of livestock and concerns about chemical residues in animal products and the environment are driving the development of alternative control strategies that are less reliant on the use of synthetic drugs. An increasingly investigated approach is the use of bioactive forages with antiparasitic properties as part of the animal’s diet (nutraceuticals) or as potential sources of novel, natural parasiticides. Chicory (Cichorium intybus) is a multi-purpose crop and one of the most promising bioactive forages in temperate regions, and numerous in vivo trials have explored its potential against parasitic nematodes in livestock. However, it is unclear whether chicory can induce a direct and broad activity...

Autores: H., HOSTE; J.-P., GUITARD; J.-C., PONS.
Gastrointestinal trichostrongylosis represent one of the main constraint associated with the  breeding of ruminants  on pastures  which is associated with Organic Farming. Besides the repeated use of anthelmintic treatments, the control of these parasitic infections can also be based on  an improvement of the host response and on the reduction of animal infection by decreasing the contact with infective larvae through pertinent  grazing management.   Mixed grazing between  different hosts species, particularly  between cattle and small ruminants, represents one of the method to  reduce  the infestivity of pastures.  This method is based on the relatively high specificity of  many nematode species  for one host. The  advantages and limits of mixed grazing...

Het gelijktijdig beweiden van geiten is een situatie waar Skal naar toe wil werken. Met Groene Geit is afgesproken dat er een overgangstermijn is tot 2013. Meerdere productiegroepen is het grootste knelpunt bij gelijktijdig beweiden. De voornaamste reden waarom gebruik wordt gemaakt van productiegroepen is het rantsoen. Daarom wordt momenteel door veel biologische ondernemers gekozen voor flat feeding. Naast flat feeding is automatisering een mogelijkheid om het aantal productiegroepen te verminderen. Dit rapport is geschreven om te inventariseren of automatisering een bijdrage kan leveren om geiten gelijktijdig te beweiden.

Mikromineralinnhold i jord og planter - mikromineralforsyning til drøvtyggere i økologisk landbruk
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Strøm, Turid; Hansen, Sissel; Govasmark, Espen.
For alle mineralene unntatt klor var det et høgere innhold i 2. slått enn i 1. slått. Flere av planteprøvene viste så lavt innhold av ett eller flere makromineral at det antagelig reduserte avlingsnivået. Ut fra mineralbehovet hos sau og storfe viste plante- og blodprøver at flere av besetningene hadde liten tilførsel av svovel, fosfor, selen og E-vitamin, mens tilførselen av magnesium, kobolt og kopper var tilfredsstillende. Videre bearbeidelse av innsamla datamateriell og utprøving av ulike selentilskudd til jord og planter vil danne grunnlaget for å trekke endelig konklusjoner i forskningsprogrammet, samt utarbeide praktiske råd om mineraltilførsel til planter og drøvtyggere i økologisk landbruk.

Entwicklung präventiver Maßnahmen zur Steigerung der Gesundheit und Nutzungsdauer beim Schaf auf ökologisch wirtschaftenden Betrieben - Weiterentwicklung Managementprogramm
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Gesche, Kern; Krieter, Joachin.
In vorhergehenden Untersuchungen wurde festgestellt, dass die Nutzungsrichtung der Schafe einen entscheidenden Einfluss auf die Nutzungsdauer hat. Haltung und Management müssen sich daran orientieren. Dementsprechend muss sich auch ein Managementsystem an die spezifischen Nutzungsrichtungen anpassen und diese möglichst optimal abbilden. In dem Projekt „Entwicklung präventiver Maßnahmen zur Steigerung der Gesundheit und Nutzungsdauer beim Schaf auf ökologisch wirtschaftenden Betrieben“ (FKZ 08OE187) wurde ein Managementinformationssystem (MIS) entwickelt, welches die Verwaltung des Bestandes, die Krankheitsdiagnostik und die Arbeitsabläufe vereinfacht und verbessert. Das MIS wurde für alle Nutzungsrichtungen konzipiert.  Um das System zu verbessern wurde...

Organic sheep breeding on the Causse Méjan: challenges and drawbacks of organic breeding in a national park in France
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: BLANC, J.
This work highlights the ecological stakes and the drawbacks associated with the development of organic lamb production on the Causse Méjan, a calcareous plateau, part of which is included in the Cévennes National Park (PnC). It analyses the tensions underlying a valorisation project for organic lambs by a small group of stockbreeders that is supported by the national park because of the ecological quality of their practices. On the one hand, since breeders are highly dependent on the ecological characteristics of the environment, they are forced to multiply their marketing channels and to invest a great deal of energy to obtain good prices for their meat whose characteristics do not match the current standards of quality (homogeneity, clear meat). On the...

Effect of bioactive compounds from Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.) on the in vitro larval migration of Haemonchus contortus: role of tannins and flavonol glycosides
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: E., BARRAU; N., FABRE; I., FOURASTE; H., HOSTE.
Anthelmintic bioactivity against gastrointestinal nematodes has been associated with leguminous forages supporting the hypothesis of a role of condensed tannins. However, the possibility that other compounds might also been involved has received less consideration. Using bio-guided fractionation, the current study aimed at characterising the biochemical nature of the active compounds present in sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia), previously identified as an  anthelmintic leguminous forage. The effects of sainfoin extracts were evaluated on 3rd stage larvae (L3) of Haemonchus contortus by using a larval migration inhibition (LMI) assay. Comparison of extracts obtained with several solvent systems showed that the bioactivity was associated with the 70:30...

Livestock production from grasslands with improved  management compared to traditional management
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Leiber, Florian.
The value of traditional versus improved management systems for grassland is discussed. The set target is the persistence of the ecological, economic and social multifunctionality of grasslands and the increase of food output from these areas without increasing parallel  requirements for arable crop or energy inputs. Based on the fact that historically traditional systems were stable and sustainable in many cases, while severe damage is faced nowadays, it is argued that lot of improvement should be based on the acknowledgment of successful traditional practises. The challenge might rather be to define improvement as a contemporary development of traditional techniques. The specific role of human labour in the context of grassland management appears to be a...

Novel and underutilized feed resources – potential for use in organic and low input dairy production
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rinne, Marketta; Dragomir, Catalin; Kuoppala, Kaisa; Marley, Christina; Smith, Jo; Yanez Ruiz, David.
This literature review evaluates the potential of a range of by-products from the agricultural,greenhouse, forestry, food processing and bioenergy sectors and agro-forestry  systems as feed components in organic and low input dairy systems. The variability of the raw materials further modified by differing processing methods results in wide range of feed materials available. Innovative use of novel and underutilized feed resources has the potential to improve the efficiency of the “green economy”.

Sainfoin - new data on anthelmintic effects and production in sheep and goats
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Heckendorn, Felix; Werne, Steffen; Maurer, Veronika; Perler, Erika; Amsler, Zivile; Probst, Johanna; Zaugg, Cornelia; Krenmeyr, Ilse.
Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) are one of the most important problems affecting health and therefore performance and welfare in small ruminant husbandry. The control of these parasites in the past strongly relied on the repeated use of anthelmintic drugs. This has led to nematode populations which are resistant to most of the currently available anthelmintics. Furthermore customer’s demands for organic and residue free animal products are increasing. The aforementioned problems have given a strong impetus for the development of new non-chemical strategies to control GIN. Previous research has pointed out the anthelmintic potential of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia, cv. Visnovsky) and other tanniferous (CT) feed sources in goats and lambs infected with...

Autores: Rahmann, Gerold; Hauschild, Birte.
Der Bio-Ziegenmilchmarkt boomt und die Preise sind interessant (&gt;0,70 €/kg). Ziegenmilchproduktion benötigt keine Milchquote und sie kann auf relativ wenig Fläche und mit vergleichsweise einfachen Gebäuden und wenig Kapital als Haupterwerbszweig aufgebaut werden. Außerdem sind Ziegen tolle Tiere. Immer mehr Betriebe überlegen deswegen den Einstieg in die Produktion. Es gibt jedoch nur wenig Erfahrung mit dem Aufbau einer Bio-Milchziegenherde. Unklar ist vor allem, welche Leistungen zu erwarten sind. Am Institut für Ökologischen Landbau der FAL in Trenthorst wurde 2001 mit Lämmern eine Milchziegenherde etabliert, die seit 2003 gemolken wird.

Geitenbrij op een rij: De fokkerijpraktijk in de biologische melkgeitenhouderij nader bekeken, is er gevaar voor inteelt?
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Borsten, Jos.
Dit onderzoek had als doel meer inzicht te verschaffen in de praktijk van de biologische geitenfokkerij van Nederland en een indruk te krijgen van de kans op inteelt in deze sector. In de gevonden fokkerijpraktijk is de afstamming van de geiten aan vaderszijde niet goed geregistreerd. Veel geitenhouders lossen dit op door steeds na maximaal twee jaar de bok van het bedrijf af te voeren en nieuwe bokken te kopen. Dit is geen duurzame oplossing omdat de aangekochte bokken direct of indirect van dezelfde fokkers afkomstig zijn. Door middel van een zevenstappenmodel is een inschatting gemaakt van de kans op inteelt. Deze kans ligt op 76,5%. Dit is hoog. Alleen bij het kleine aantal bedrijven met een gesloten fokkerij (= eigen aanfok van bokken) en een totale...

Autores: Lanza, M.; Scerra, M.; Bognanno, M.; Buccioni, A.; Cilione, C.; Biondi, L.; Priolo, A.; Luciano, G.
In the present study, we have hypothesized that replacing barley with high proportions of dried citrus pulp in a concentrate-based diet for lambs could increase the intake of unsaturated fatty acids and could reduce the rate of the ruminal biohydrogenation of PUFA, with a consequent improvement of the intramuscular fatty acid composition. To test this hypothesis, 26 Comisana lambs were divided into 3 groups and for 56 d were fed a barley-based concentrate diet (CON; 8 lambs) or 2 diets in which barley was replaced with 24% (CIT24; 9 lambs) or 35% (CIT35; 9 lambs) dried citrus pulp. An overall improvement of the fatty acid composition of LM from lambs fed citrus pulp-containing diets was found. The PUFA/SFA ratio was lower (P &lt; 0.05) in the LM from lambs...

Les strongyloses gastro-intestinales sont une des pathologies majeures chez les petits ruminants élevés à l’herbe. Elles peuvent entraîner des pertes de production importantes. Le moyen usuel de lutte contre ces parasitoses est l’utilisation des anthelminthiques. Cependant, plusieurs problèmes se posent quant à leur utilisation. Premièrement, les résistances aux anthelminthiques au sein des populations de vers sont de plus en plus fréquentes, et particulièrement chez les caprins. Deuxièment, en lactation, seules certaines molécules sont autorisées. De plus, les consommateurs se montrent de plus en plus réticents à l’emploi de molécules chimiques en élevage.

Survey of the marketing concept for organic goat meat in the Netherlands
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Loefs, Renske; Eekeren, N. van.
(Organic) goat meat is a new product for the Dutch consumer. Establishing this new market requires entrepreneurial skills and persistency. In the Netherlands there is a small group of pioneers who has gained a fair amount of experience with rearing goats and marketing goat meat. This study specifically maps their experience. The survey included short questionnaires and interviews by telephone.  It is to be expected that (organic) goat meat will more often appear on the menu in the near future, given the enthusiasm and positive comments of the group of trendsetting consumers and cooks. Q fever unfortunately has tarnished the image of goat meat somewhat, but it is expected that organic goat meat will gain popularity step by step, slowly but surely. Joint...

Feeding hazelnut leaves (Corylus avellana) to first year grazing goats may reduce the egg output of gastrointestinal worms. Previous trials with complete hazelnut bushes support this assumption. Under controlled conditions, the feeding of hazelnut leaves of four weeks, showed no significant differences concerning body weight and fecal egg count between control, low dose and high dose groups, respectively. Anyhow, the great acceptance of hazelnut leaves shows, that browsing does increases animal welfare of goats.

Autores: Stubsjøen, Solveig Marie; Sørheim, Kristin; Chincarino, Matteo; Bolin, Jon; Brunberg, Emma; Fuchs, Boris; Palme, Rupert; Grøva, Lise.
Tick-borne fever (TBF), caused by the bacterium Anaplasma phagocytophilum and transmitted by the tick Ixodes ricinus, has considerable consequences for animal welfare and economy in the sheep industry. Non-invasive, objective methods to quantify chronic stress are needed in order to evaluate the welfare impact of disease. The aim of this study was 1) to evaluate hair cortisol (HC) and hair cortisone (HCn) as biomarkers of chronic stress in sheep with TBF and 2) to test whether there was an association between the development of TBF and concentrations of HC, HCn and faecal cortisol metabolites (FCM) and body weight. The experiment took place in an area with a high prevalence of TBF, and thirty lambs were used in the study. Wool samples were collected in...

Effects  of the repeated distribution of sainfoin hay on the resistance and the resilience of goats naturally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: V., Paolini; F., De La Farge; F., Prevot; Ph., Dorchies; H., Hoste.
Due to the high prevalence of anthelmintic resistance in goats, the need to explore novel approaches to control nematodes and  to reduce the exclusive reliance on chemotherapy is strongly demanded in this host species. In sheep, several studies have shown  that the consumption of tannin-rich legume forages was associated with positive effects on host resilience and resistance to  parasite infection. In goats, studies on such interactions between tanniferous plants and nematode infections remain few. The  objectives of the current study were to examine under natural conditions the effects of consumption of sainfoin hay by goats on  the parasite populations and on host resilience.  Eighteen adult cull goats naturally infected with Haemonchus contortus,...

Body Condition Scoring bei Milchziegen
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Aschenbach, Franziska; Rahmann, Gerold.
Body Condition Score kann eine Möglichkeit sein, den Ernährungszustand von Milchziegen besser einzuschätzen. In der Literatur liegen jedoch keine eindeutigen Aussagen über die Eignung für Milchziegen im Ökolandbau vor. Deswegen wurde 2009 mit der 80-köpfigen Milchziegenherde in Trenthorst (Schleswig-Holstein) untersucht, ob ein BCS oder die Wiegung als Bewertungsmaßstab für den Ergänzungszustand herangezogen werden soll.

Einfluss von Düngemittel auf die Wiederfindungsraten von Parasitenlarven
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Podstatzky, Leopold; Gallnböck, Markus.
When pasture is managed in austrian alpine regions sheep and goats were grazed more than once a year on the same inclosure. The effects of fertilizing pasture with lime on parasitic burden are seen different. Different fertilizers were tested under laboratory conditions for their effects both on infectious parasitic larvae and on egg development. The experiment was conducted with earthnematode free gras samples and with wood chips.   With quicklime and cyanamid effects could be demonstrated in the number of larvae and on egg development. With lime only effects against parasitic larvae could be seen. The application of effective mikroorganisms resulted in reduced numbers of larvae and on egg development. In organic farming cyanamid is not allowed. Quicklime...

In vitro anthelmintic effects of bark extracts from Picea abies and Pinus sylvestris against sheep nematodes
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Blomstrand, Berit Marie; Ptochos, Sokratis; Enemark, Heidi; Thamsborg, Stig Milan; Aasen, Inga Marie; Steinshamn, Håvard; Athanasiadou, Spiridoula.
Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) in sheep are a common cause of reduced animal welfare and performance, and thus, high economical losses. The emerging drug resistance in GIN prompts for new methods in combating infections. Several studies have indicated an anti-parasitic effect of tannin-rich plants when included in the diet.  The objective of this study was to assess the potential in vitro anthelmintic efficacy of tannin-rich extracts from bark of common Norwegian trees (spruce and pine) against GIN of sheep.

Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: M., BENOIT; H., TOURNADRE; G., LAIGNEL.
Deux troupeaux ovins allaitants en AB ont été comparés en ferme expérimentale, menés selon 2 conduites de la reproduction : 3 agnelages en 2 ans (système accéléré) ou une mise bas par an (système herbager). Leurs performances techniques et économiques ont été analysées et comparées à celles d’élevages privés. En système accéléré, la productivité numérique est légèrement supérieure (6 % : 161 vs 152 en moyenne sur 3 ans) mais, même lorsque l’écart est élevé (en 2002 : 193 vs 152), la marge par brebis est peu supérieure (90€ vs 86) du fait de coûts de production élevés. En effet, les concentrés utilisés atteignent 178 kg/brebis (+58 %) avec un prix 60 % plus élevé qu’en conventionnel. Par ailleurs, les résultats de ce système sont irréguliers. Le système...

Autores: Werne, S.; Maurer, V.; Perler, E.; Amsler, Z.; Probst, J.; Zaugg, C.; Krenmayr, I.; Schwery, M.; Volken, H.; Heckendorn, F.
Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) are one of the most important problems affecting health and therefore performance and welfare in small ruminant husbandry. The control of these parasites in the past strongly relied on the repeated use of anthelmintic drugs. This has led to nematode populations which are resistant to most of the currently available anthelmintics. Furthermore customer’s demands for organic and residue free animal products are increasing. The aforementioned problems have given a strong impetus for the development of new non-chemical strategies to control GIN. Previous research has pointed out the anthelmintic potential of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) and other tanniferous (CT) feed sources in goats and lambs infected with GIN. A recent...

Provedor de dados: 21
In vorhergehenden Untersuchungen wurde festgestellt, dass die Nutzungsrichtung der Schafe einen entscheidenden Einfluss auf die Nutzungsdauer hat. Haltung und Management müssen sich daran orientieren. Dementsprechend muss sich auch ein Managementsystem an die spezifischen Nutzungsrichtungen anpassen und diese möglichst optimal abbilden. In dem Projekt „Entwicklung präventiver Maßnahmen zur Steigerung der Gesundheit und Nutzungsdauer beim Schaf auf ökologisch wirtschaftenden Betrieben“ (Projektnummer 2808OE187) wurde ein Managementinformationssystem (MIS) entwickelt, welches die Verwaltung des Bestandes, die Krankheitsdiagnostik und die Arbeitsabläufe vereinfacht und verbessert.

In this study the effect of three colostrum types; goat, cow and artificial colostrum, on serum gamma globulin concentration (GGC), growth and health of goat kids during the first three months of the rearing phase was measured. Thirty newborn goat kids were randomly assigned to three experimental groups; goat colostrum (GC), cow colostrum (CC) and artificial colostrum (AC). At 2, 28, 56 and 86 days serum GGC and live weight were measured. The three colostrum types were analysed on immunoglobulin G (IgG). Goat colostrum contained twice as much IgG as cow colostrum and artificial colostrum. At 2 and 28 days GC kids had a higher serum GGC than CC and AC kids. At 56 and 86 days no significant differences in serum GGC between the groups were found. No effect of...

CONVERSION OF A LAMB PRODUCTION SYSTEM TO ORGANIC FARMING: HOW TO MANAGE, FOR WHICH RESULTS?
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Marc, Benoit; Hervé, Tournadre; Jean-Pierre, Dulphy; Jacques, Cabaret; Sophie, Prache.
Two sheep flocks were managed organically (for two years from conversion onwards) under different lambing strategies (1 lambing/year vs. 3 lambings every two years). The second system was tested as there was a producer’s interest in high productivity that is a guarantee of good economic results in conventional. Reproduction, feeding, lamb production, carcass quality, health (particularly internal parasitism), economic return of the flock, grass production, and pasture biodiversity were evaluated. The lambs were bred under low therapeutic input. The economical advantage of increasing lambing frequency was not demonstrated, whereas this strategy complexified management and resulted in higher internal parasitic infection of the lambs, and finally showed a...

Autores: Junior, Edizio Santos; Vieira, Ricardo Augusto Mendonça; Henrique, Douglas Sampaio; Fernandes, Alberto Magno.
A survey was done based on 19 goat shepherds at counties of Centre-highlands, Northern and North-western regions of the Rio de Janeiro State and at the county of Pedra Dourada, Zona da Mata region, State of Minas Gerais. We aimed to characterise the primary sector of the goat milk production chain settled at those regions. Therefore, questionnaires were applied in order to depict profiles of the shepherds, their families, the role of the wife in the activity, the resources available, dependence on income generated by the activity, and how producers administrate their business. Farms were distributed in five strata according to the following daily milk production averages and standard deviations: 8.8 ± 0.9, 15.7 ± 3.9, 22.6 ± 2.7, 34.4 ± 3.4, and 183.8 ±...

Influence of fresh alfalfa supplementation on fat skatole and indole concentration and chop odour and flavour in lambs grazing a cocksfoot pasture
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Devincenzi, T.; Prunier, A.; Meteau, K.; Nabinger, C.; Prache, S.
Weinvestigated the influence of the level of fresh alfalfa supplementation on fat skatole and indole concentration and chop sensory attributes in grazing lambs. Four groups of nine male Romane lambs grazing a cocksfoot pasturewere supplemented with various levels of alfalfa for at least 60 days before slaughter. Perirenal fat skatole concentration was higher for lambs that consumed alfalfa than for those that consumed only cocksfoot. The intensity of ‘animal’ odour in the lean part of the chop and of ‘animal’ flavour in both the lean and fat parts of the chop, evaluated by a trained sensory panel, increased from the lowest level of alfalfa supplementation onwards and did not increase further with increasing levels of alfalfa supplementation. The outcome of...

Lamb Production:grazing management, breeding policy and parasite control
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Hanrahan, J.P.; Good, Barbara.
Internal parasitic infection can pose major health problems in young livestock and this is particularly so in the context of lambs in organic production systems. In the context of sheep production on an organic farm the challenge to control parasite infection is especially difficult in situations where crop production is absent or a minor element of the whole farm system. Our investigations, to date at Athenry, have concerned an exploration of lamb production in an all-grass farming setting with particular attention being paid to the breeds employed and the seasonal patterns of gastrointestinal parasite challenge. This flock (about 110 ewes plus replacements) is wintered indoors and lambs in early March each year.

Technical and economic performances in organic sheep meat production: observations of breeding networks and experimental farms
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: BENOIT, M.; LAIGNEL, G.
A network of 42 sheep farms (including 13 in organic farming (OF)) shows that the gross margin per ewe is 24% lower in OF in the mountains because of high food costs and comparable in the lowlands because of the high level of food self-sufficiency based on the cultivation of fodder and grain; incomes are identical when structural costs are comparable. An analysis of four demonstration farms shows that, given the different conditions, specific livestock management is required depending on the presence of tillable land or not. If their proportion is limited, lambings are equally distributed between spring and autumn in order to maximise fodder self-sufficiency. When crops are possible, lambings are focused on autumn (with good sale prices), which requires...

Do endangered sheep breeds have an advantage in organic farming?
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, G.
Endangered breeds are not compulsory for organic farming, but adapted and local breeds are considered suitable for Organic Farming. In the year 2001, 240 ewes of six different breeds were introduced on the experimental farm of the Institute of Organic Farming in Trenthorst. Two were high yielding breeds, four older endangered German breeds. The whole herd was kept in one herd in a low input – low output system, comparable to agrienvironmental schemes. The scientific programme was to follow the herd’s development in terms of health status, growth rate and product qualities.  After three lambing seasons, no real advantages could be found for the old breeds. Nevertheless, high yielding and old breeds did not show big differences in production and health...

Three different methods of composting (no reverse, 2xreverse, 5xrevers) were conducted in summer and winter over a period of 62 days with respect to the survival of endoparasites.   Highest temperatures were reached in compost hills without reversing. Reversing lowered the temperature. Maximum temperatures were almost 70°C but in winter highest temperatures nearly reached 55°C. After two weeks of composting in winter temperatures were always under 40°C.  In summer no parasitic larvae could be detected at the end of the trial independent of reverse frequency. In winter larvae could be counted at the end of the trial.

Controlling reproduction in organic sheep breeding: the influence of breeding factors on the effectiveness of the ram effect
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: TOURNADRE, H.; PELLICER, M.; BOCQUIER, F.
The ram effect, which is a natural method for the control of reproduction in sheep, is an alternative to hormone treatments that are banned on organic farms. The ram effect induces a combination of ovulation and oestrus in ewes that is acyclic and conducive to artificial insemination. The proportion of acyclic females with induced ovulation and their subsequent fertility at the first oestrus is variable. The control of some breeding factors that have been studied here may help to reduce this variability. The proportion of ewes induced to ovulate by rams increased as the season advanced (54% in April vs. 84% at the end of May, p&lt;0.05) and with a longer time period between drying-off and mating: from 29% to 84% (p&lt;0.001) for 22 and 86 days elapsed,...

Autores: Gravador, Rufielyn S.; Jongberg, Sisse; Andersen, Mogens L.; Luciano, Giuseppe; Priolo, Alessandro; Lund, Marianne N.
The antioxidant effects of dried citrus pulp on proteins in lamb meat, when used as a replacement of concentrate in the feed, was studied using meat from 26 male Comisana lambs. The lambs of age 90 days had been grouped randomly to receive one of the three dietary treatments: (1) commercial concentrate with 60% barley (Control, n = 8), (2) concentrate with 35% barley and 24% citrus pulp (Cp24, n = 9), or (3) concentrate with 23% barley and 35% citrus pulp (Cp35, n = 9). Slices from the longissimus thoracis et lomborum muscle were packed aerobically and stored for up to 6 days at 4°C in the dark. The citrus pulp groups, Cp24 and Cp35, significantly decreased protein radicals and carbonyls, and preserved more thiols within six days of storage compared to the...

Dairy goats, naturally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes, were fed 700g sainfoin- or alfalfa-pellets per day, additionally to a non-tanniferous basic diet. The effect of the feeding on the parasite egg excretion per gramm faeces (EPG) was monitored over a period of 7 weeks. The trial was conducted in parallel at two sites; in France and in Switzerland. At both sites the same quality of sainfoin- and alfalfapellets were used. Compared to the alfalfa group the EPG of the sainfoin fed goats were reduced by 12% in France andby 18% in Switzerland. A repeated measurement analysis revealed no significant difference between the feeding groups at neither site. As it is very likely that the effect of condensed tannins on gastrointestinal nematodes is dose...

Sustainable organic hill and upland farming - A collaborative case study approach
Provedor de dados: 21
It is DEFRA policy is to support sustainable farming methods (including organic farming) that benefit the environment and that provide a competitive and safe food supply chain which meets consumer requirements. The development of organic farming in the hills and uplands has been under-pinned by government support during the period of conversion from conventional to organic status (e.g. the Organic Farming Scheme). For many extensively managed hill and upland organic units the move to organic production systems has not required a substantial change in farm management policy or major loss of physical output during the early years following conversion. Despite this, organic price premiums per unit output (e.g. higher price/kg for beef and lamb) have not in...

Autores: Trei, Gerriet; Synnatzschke, Martin; Hörning, Prof. Bernhard.
Aim of the study was to collect information about organic livestock farming in Brandenburg.  In comparison with other German states, organic farms in Brandenburg are  bigger and the soil quality is worse. Thus, beef-suckler and sheep production is more  important than dairy, pig or poultry production. Farmers mention problems with climate  (low rainfall), lack of agricultural area and problems with the marketing.

This study investigated the effect of replacing cereal concentrateswith high levels of dried citrus pulp in the diet on lamb meat oxidative stability. Over 56 days, lambs were fed a barley-based concentrate (Control) or concentrates inwhich 24% and 35% dried citrus pulpwere included to partially replace barley (Citrus 24% and Citrus 35%, respectively). Meat was aged under vacuum for 4 days and subsequently stored aerobically at 4 °C. The Control diet increased the redness, yellowness and saturation of meat after blooming (P &lt; 0.01). Regardless of the level of supplementation, dietary dried citrus pulp strongly reduced meat lipid oxidation over 6 days of aerobic storage (P &lt; 0.001), while colour parameters did not change noticeably over storage and...

Integrated control of gastrointestinal nematodes in lambs  using a bioactive feed x breed approach
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Werne, S.; Isensee, A.; Maurer, V.; Perler, E.; Drewek, A.; Heckendorn, F.
Forages rich in condensed tannins have repeatedly shown potential to reduce gastrointestinal nematode infection in sheep. Similarly, several breeds of sheep have shown a relative resistance to gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). We hypothesised that additive or even synergic effects may arise from the combination of a relatively resistant breed and a diet rich in condensed tannins. In study I, 160 lambs of the native Red Engadine Sheep (RES) and 113 lambs of the Swiss White Alpine sheep (SWA) were artificially infected with GIN and subsequently grazed for 52 days. The lambs were then distributed to 2 groups for a 14-day experimental feeding period. One group received a diet with a proportion of 55% sainfoin and was compared to a control group on the basis of...

Organic vs Conventional Suckling Lamb Production: Product Quality and Consumer Acceptance
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Revilla, I.; Vivar-Quintana, A.M.; Lurueña-Martínez, M.A.; Palacios, C.; Severiano-Pérez, P.
Samples of suckling lambs (n=40) of two breeds reared under conventional and organic conditions were analysed to asses physico-chemical characteristics, including instrumental texture, and nutritional quality in terms of fatty acid composition. Consumer acceptance was also studied using the home-use test. Results revealed that organic suckling lamb meat is healthier as shown by the lower saturated fatty acid levels, the higher polyunsaturated fatty acid contents and the higher 6/3 ratiko. The organic meat had lower instrumental hardness, received higher scores in all sensory parameters, and had statistically better fat sensation and higher ratings for overall liking. These results lend support to the notion among consumers that organic products are...

Practices for Organic Parasite Control
Provedor de dados: 21
Parasitism is well recognized as a major challenge to the health and welfare of organic livestock. In organic small ruminant production systems, endoparasitic disease is accepted as the most important multifactorial syndrome, resulting in lack of appetite, diarrhoea, anaemia and in extreme cases, death. In organic cattle production, despite the low stocking densities and use of improved grazing management practices, helminth infections are still a significant issue. Although previous projects funded either by EC or National Governments have largely delivered the underpinning scientific research, progress in the implementation of suitable control strategies has been hindered by: i) limitations of research at farm systems level, ii) absence of clear...

Betriebssystematische Aspekte zur Integration der nutztiergebundenen Biotoppflege in den ökologischen Landbau
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
In Deutschland ist die Beweidung von verbuschten Kalkmagerrasen die ethologisch beste Form der Weidehaltung von Ziegen. Gehölze stellen eine wichtige Futtergrundlage für Ziegen dar, sind bei der ökologischen Ziegenhaltung den Tieren anzubieten und damit in die Richtlinien aufzunehmen.   Durch die Beweidung von gefährdeten Biotopen mit einem hohen Verbuschungsgrad kann wird nicht nur die Tiergerechtigkeit der Weidehaltung von Ziegen erhöht, sondern auch kostengünstiger Naturschutz betrieben. Die Pflegekosten konnten um die Hälfte reduziert werden. Die Biotopbeweidung als integraler Bestandteil des ökologischen Betriebes benötigt aber ein ausgeklügeltes Weide- und Herdenmanagement, da bei der Biotopbeweidung sowohl den naturschützerischen Vorgaben als auch...

Agroecology uses ecological processes and local resources rather than chemical inputs to develop productive and resilient livestock and crop production systems. In this context, breeding innovations are necessary to obtain animals that are both productive and adapted to a broad range of local contexts and diversity of systems. Breeding strategies to promote agroecological systems are similar for different animal species. However, current practices differ regarding the breeding of ruminants, pigs and poultry. Ruminant breeding is still an open system where farmers continue to choose their own breeds and strategies. Conversely, pig and poultry breeding is more or less the exclusive domain of international breeding companies which supply farmers with hybrid...

Much of the recent expansion of organic farming in Wales in associated with red meat production. Of the 56,621 hectares that will be fully organic by 2004, probably 80% is permanent grassland (assumption from Soil Association OFFR, 2002), the majority of which will be associated with beef and lamb production. The following factors suggest that the development of a strategy (which may encompass several sub strategies) for the red meat sector in Wales, to include production, processing, retailing, and consumer awareness, is vital to minimise disruption to the developing sector:  ·  Most of the organic red meat production in Wales is new.  ·  Other regions of the UK are seeing similar increases organic red meat production.  ·  The retail market for organic...

Groups of six to seven lambs per breed were allocated to pastures of a size allowing ad libitum intake on the following four vegetation types: (i) species-poor and nutrient-rich lowland (400 m a.s.l.) ryegrass–clover ley on flat terrain (‘lowland-rich’); (ii) alpine, species-rich and nutrient-rich vegetation type on a flat terrain (1950 m; ‘alpine-rich’); (iii) alpine, species-rich vegetation type, moderate in nutrients on steep terrain (2150 m; ‘alpine-moderate’); and (iv) alpine, species-rich and nutrient-poor vegetation type on steep terrain (2150 m; ‘alpine-poor’). Lambs were...

Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Podstatzky, Leopold; Föttinger, Pauline Maria.
Ziel dieser Studie war es, den Einfluss von Grapefruitkernextrakt auf die Entwicklungsrate von parasitischen Drittlarven in vitro zu untersuchen. Die Larven wurden jeweils mit zwei unterschiedlichen Grapefruitkernextraktverdünnungen (1,6 mg / ml und 3,2 mg / ml), mit Tetramisholhydrochlorid (positive Kontrolle) und Wasser (negative Kontrolle) inkubiert. 20, 40 und 60 Minuten nach Zugaben von verdünntem Natriumhypochlorit wurden die geschlüpften Larven gezählt und die prozentuelle Schlupfrate errechnet. Die Schlupfrate in den beidne Grapefruitkernextrakt Gruppen waren annähernd gleich und lagen über denen der positiven Kontrollgruppe. In der negativen Kontrollgruppe wurde nach 60 Minuten annähernd 100 % Schlupfrate festgestellt. Weitere Untersuchungen wären...

Efeito do suco de alho (Allium sativum L.) sobre endoparasitas gastrintestinais de ovinos.
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Santos, Fernanda Carlini Cunha; Vogel, Fernanda Silveira Flores; Monteiro, Silvia Gonzales.
Os parasitas gastrintestinais de ovinos causam enormes prejuízos a pecuária, tendo como principais sinais clínicos: redução na produção de carne, leite e lã, anemia, diarréia, anorexia e morte súbita. O tratamento preconizado é basicamente através da administração de produtos químicos, sendo que estes estimulam o aparecimento da resistência parasitária. Nesse contexto, a fitoterapia é uma modalidade de tratamento medicinal que vem crescendo muito nestes últimos anos. Com o intuito de avaliar a eficácia do suco de alho (Allium sativum) sobre infecções helmínticas foram utilizados 18 ovinos divididos em três tratamentos.

In vitro effects of three woody plant and sainfoin extracts on two parasitic stage of 3 parasitic nematode species
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: V., PAOLINI; I., FOURASTE; H., HOSTE.
Most studies on the effects of tanniferous plants on nematodes have examined forages but have neglected the woody plants. Therefore, in vitro effects of extracts from 3 woody plants (Rubus fructicosus, Quercus robur, Corylus avellana) have been tested on trichostrongyles and compared to sainfoin, a legume forage. Because some in vivo results indicated that the effects of tannins differed depending on the parasitic species and/or stages, the effects  were measured on third-stage larvae (L3) and adult worms of Teladorsagia circumcincta, Haemonchus contortus and Trichostrongylus colubriformis. The effects of plant extracts varied according to the plant sources, the parasite species and stages. For the woody plants, significant inhibitory effects were obtained...

Økologisk sauehald - kort innføring.
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Ebbesvik, Martha; Grøva, Lise; Strøm, Turid.
Utmarksbeite er grunnlaget for mykje av kjøttproduksjonen  på sau og lam i Noreg. Målet i ei økologisk driftsform er at sauehaldet skal klare seg mest mogleg med garden sine eigne, lokale og fornybare ressursar. Beite og konservert grovfôr dyrka etter økologiske retningsliner er dei viktigaste fôrmidlane.  FOKUS-rapporten omhandlar ulike sider ved sauehald, med særleg vekt på det som er spesielt for økologisk drift. Utfordringane for økologisk sauehald er i stor grad knytt til dyrking av grovfôr og til bygningskrav. I tillegg er rett fôring, sjukdomsførebyggjing og parasitthandtering viktig.

Autores: Grohmann, Markus; Winckler, Christoph; Perler, Erika; Isensee, Anne; Christ, Benedikt; Amsler, Zivile; Werne, Steffen; Maurer, Veronika; Heckendorn, Felix.
The aim of this field study was to investigate interactions between gastro-intestinal nematode (GIN) infection, milk performance and age in goats in order to identify animal groups with higher susceptibility to GIN. On 3 farms (farm A: n = 29, farm B: n = 33, farm C: n = 117 milking goats) fecal egg count reduction tests (FECRT) were performed in summer. All 179 milking goats were enrolled in FECRT and individual milk performance was recorded before and after FEC for FECRT. Furthermore, in early summer and autumn bulk fecal samples were cultured for every farm and GIN genera were determined.

Interactions between nutrition and gastrointestinal  infections with parasitic nematodes in goats
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: H., Hoste; J.F., Torres-Acosta; V., Paolini; A., Aguilar-Caballero; E., Etter; Y., Lefrileux; C., Chartier; C., Broqua.
Parasitic nematodes of the digestive tract remain one of the main constraints to goat production both in temperate and tropical  countries. The usual mode of control of these gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) based on the repeated use of anthelmintics  is now strongly questioned because of the increasing development of resistance to these molecules. Among the alternative  methods to anthelmintics currently available, the manipulation of host nutrition in order to improve the host resistance and/or  resilience to parasitic infections seems to represent one of the most promising options to reduce the dependence on conventional  chemotherapy and to favour the sustainable control of gastro intestinal nematode infections. This paper will review the available...

In der Schaf- und Ziegenhaltung stellt der Befall mit Magen-Darm-Strongyliden (MDS) einen wesentlichen Problemfaktor für die Tiergesundheit dar. Klinische und subklinische Erkrankungen können von erheblicher wirtschaftlicher Relevanz sein. Eine zunehmende Resistenzentwicklung gegen seit langem eingesetzte Anthelminthika hat derzeit einen intensivierten Einsatz dieser Wirkstoffe zur Folge und verschärft das Problem somit zusätzlich. Die Entwicklung und Bereitstellung komplementärer Kontrollstrategien könnte zu einer erheblichen Reduktion des Anthelminthika-Einsatzes beitragen.

Organic Farming at ADAS PwllPeiran 1993 - 2001
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Frost, David.
Agriculture at Pwllpeiran has a long history.  Pwllpeiran was eventually established as an Experimental Husbandry Farm in 1955. During the following forty years, work at the farm achieved substantial improvements in the quality and quantity of lamb and beef produced, but by the turn of the millennium the emphasis of agricultural policy was turning away from increased livestock production per se and towards the development of environmentally sensitive farming systems.    The 1,118 ha Pwllpeiran Research Farm is now managed by ADAS Wales. The land is rented from the National Assembly for Wales and the Forestry Commission. All of the land is under a ‘whole farm’ Environmentally Sensitive Area agreement.    The results from the Pwllpeiran unit underline the...

Organic and low intensive, traditional sheep farming in the Polish Carpathian Mts
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Twardy, Dr. Stanislaw; Kuzniar, Dr. Antoni.
The Polish Carpathians Mts. occupy about 19.6 thousands km2, which constitute over 6 % of the area of the country. The length of this mountain chain within Poland 's territory is 330 km and width is 60-80 km. In described agricultural land the permanent grasslands dominate. At lower elevation, i.e. about 600-650 m a.s.l. they are moved, and the above this elevation land is utilised as a pasture. In whole area the low input agriculture is practised, usually as sub-sistence farming, i.e. feeding the farmer and his fam-ily. Possible surpluses of food are sold in the local markets or directly to the tourists and holidaymakers, who are rather numerously visiting this glamorous mountain region. The described specific agriculture is favouring the organic...

Künstliche Besamung von Ziegen
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Koopmann, Regine; Fischer, Peter.
Anders als bei Rindern und Schweinen ist die künstliche Besamung (KB) in der deutschen Ziegenzucht bislang ein kaum übliches Verfahren. Hauptursachen dafür sind der Umfang und die Strukturen der Zuchtpopulationen sowie die wirtschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen für die Züchter. Andere Länder wie Frankreich, Schweiz, Spanien oder auch Schweden zeigen jedoch, dass durch konsequente Besamungszucht der züchterische Fortschritt erheblich gesteigert werden kann. Durch den Spermaeinsatz verschiedener Vatertiere kann wirksam der Inzuchtproblematik im Bestand begegnet werden. Gerade Halter kleinerer Bestände können so ohne eigenen Bock, dessen Geruchsbelästigung nicht zu unterschätzen ist, ihre Herde optimal reproduzieren. Ein genauso wichtiges Argument für die...

Consumer Appreciation of Carcass Quality of Organic vs Conventional Suckling Lamb Production
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Palacios, C.; Revilla, I.; Vivar-Quintana, A.M.; Lurueña-Martínez, M.A.; Severiano-Pérez, P.
Carcass characteristics of sucking lambs (n= 40) of two breeds reared under conventional and organic conditions were analysed including objective and subjective parameters for fatness and conformation, meat and fat colour. Consumer acceptance was also studied using the home-use test. Results showed that the characteristics of the carcass of suckling lamb were similar for both types of production systems pointing out that organic production system did not affect fatness or muscle development. However, organic meat was darker (higher L* and a* values) probably related with the higher amount of exercise, although fat was not more yellow. In contrast consumers did not consider organic meat darker and there were not significant differences in appearance related...

Autores: Novoa-Garrido, Margarita; Aanesen, Lise; Lind, Vibeke; Larsen, Hans Jørgen S.; Jensen, Søren K.; Govasmark, Espen; Steinshamn, Håvard.
It is assumed that ewes raised in areas with long indoor winter feeding periods need to be supplemented with vitamins or other substances that help to maintain the health status of the animals. Various supplements are available on the market, but the most widely used supplemental antioxidant and vitamin E source is synthetic all-rac-α-tocopheryl acteate. The objective of the present study was to compare potential vitamin E and immune stimulant sources with synthetic vitamin E regarding bioactivity associated with immunological parameters in order to identify alternatives to synthetic vitamin E for small ruminants. Sources tested were meal of the seaweed Ascophylum nodosum and natural RRR-α- tocopheryl acetate. Forty pregnant ewes were randomly allocated to...

Preventive and alternative treatments of helminth parasites in organic dairy goats
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Verwer, C; Eekeren, N. van.
rganic dairy goat farmers in The Netherlands do not wish to use chemicical anthelmintics as preventative and curative therapeutics against helminth parasites. Regarding helminth parasites steps are taken in the direction of prevention and monitoring, and only when necessary curative treatment. An evasivel grazing system was developed in combination with a close monitoring to prevent helminth parasites in organic dairy goats. This system worked very well in keeping the incidence of helminth infections in dairy goats at a low level. However, recent data showed that some farms have problems with helminths in the early spring, especially with Haemonchus contortus, even though animals were treated when dried off and/or grazed on clean pastures. These farms are...

Flåttbåren sykdom og velferd hos sau
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Grøva, Lise; Olesen, Ingrid; Stuen, Snorre; Steinshamn, Håvard.
De største utfordringene for velferden på sau i beiteperioden er sjodogg, fluelarver, alveld og rovdyr (Norges Forskningsråd 2005, Norsk sau og geitavlslag 2001). Økte transportavstander og transporttid samt negativ økonomisk utvikling i saueholdet og en dreining mot mer ekstensive driftsformer gir også grunn til bekymring for velferden til sauen i norsk sauehold.    I økologisk landbruk er et høyt nivå på dyrevelferd og god dyrehelse eksplisitte mål (Debio 2003). Muligheten til å utøve naturlig atferd er et viktig prinsipp, og beitedrift er derfor et viktig aspekt i økologisk landbruk. Utfordringene i både økologisk og konvensjonelt landbruk er ofte sammenfallende, men i økologisk landbruk legger en spesielt stor vekt på årsaksorientert problemløsing og...

L'efficacité de l'aromathérapie en élevage caprin pour lutter contre le parasitisme interne
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Lèbre, Amélie.
Le parasitisme interne est une maladie infectieuse qui impacte la productivité des animaux et dégrade leur état sanitaire. Ces dernières décennies, de nombreux cas de résistance des strongles aux anthelminthiques conventionnels ont été observés, notamment chez les petits ruminants. Ce phénomène est devenu une préoccupation majeure des éleveurs qui doivent se tourner vers des méthodes de lutte alternatives. Dans le Sud de la France, où la production de plantes médicinales est importante, des traitements aux huiles essentielles et aux teintures mères sont utilisés traditionnellement par les éleveurs caprins pour lutter contre le parasitisme. Cependant, l’utilisation traditionnelle de ces extraits n’a encore jamais fait l’objet d’une validation scientifique....

Entwicklung eines Konzepts zur Vermarktung von Öko-Ziegenlammfleisch aus melkenden Betrieben
Provedor de dados: 21
Die Bedeutung der Öko-Milchziegenhaltung in Deutschland steigt. Gleichzeitig ist die Vermarktung der als Koppelprodukt anfallenden Lämmer schwierig. Dies führt zu ökonomischen Problemen der Betriebe, wirft aber auch Fragen nach der Umsetzung der ethischen Prinzipien der Öko-Landwirtschaft auf. Um einen tiergerechten und ethisch korrekten Umgang mit den Ziegenlämmern zu fördern, gilt es die Absatzmöglichkeiten für Öko-Ziegenlammfleisch zu verbessern.

Einsatz einer Kräutermischung in der Lämmermast –   Einfluss auf Kokzidienausscheidung und Gewichtsentwicklung
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Podstatzky, Leopold; Krenn, Volker.
Auf einem Lämmermastbetrieb wurde die Kräutermischung Paramaxin® in der Lämmeraufzucht bis zum Absetzen eingesetzt. Die Kokzidienausscheidung wurde 4 Wochen nach Versuchsbeginn, mit 8 Wochen beim Absetzen und 4 Wochen nach dem Absetzen erhoben, die Gewichte wurden zu Versuchsbeginn (7-10 Lebenstage), mit 8 Wochen beim Absetzen und 4 Wochen nach dem Absetzen gemessen. Lämmer, die mit 8 Wochen keine 20 kg Körpergewicht erreicht hatten, wurden 4 Wochen später mit 12 Wochen abgesetzt. Die Tiere der Versuchsgruppe erhielten die Kräutermischung über den Lämmerstarter, in dem Paramaxin eingemischt wurde, die Tiere der Kontrollgruppe erhielten nur den Lämmerstarter.  Bei der Kokzidienausscheidung war kein Unterschied zwischen den Gruppen nachweisbar, sie ging bis...

Gehölzfutter - eine neue Quelle für die ökologische Tierernährung
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
Seit der Trennung von Wald und Weide, die Ende des 18ten Jahrhunderts einsetzte, wurden  Gehölze in Deutschland immer weniger als eine landwirtschaftliche Ressource betrachtet. Seit  dem Zweiten Weltkrieg ist ihre Bedeutung praktisch auf Null gesunken und sie werden  landwirtschaftlich nur noch als störend wahrgenommen. In der Konsequenz wurden vielerorts  Hecken an Feldrändern und Gehölze auf Freiflächen entfernt. Erst mit dem Bewusstsein um  die ökologische Bedeutung der Gehölze z.B. als CO2-Senke, Habitat für viele Tierarten,  Luftreinigung, Wasserhaushalt und den ländlichen Tourismus sind Gehölze wieder ins  öffentliche Bewusstsein geraten. Heute sind rund 30% des Bundesgebietes mit Wald bedeckt,  dabei sind viele mit Sträuchern und Bäumen bestandene...

Utprøving av NoFence elektronisk gjerde i forhold til dyrevelferd - Prototype 1
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Henriksen, Britt I. F.; Berntsen, Oscar Hovde.
Denne rapporten er frå dei første kontrollerte utprøvingane på dyr av NoFence elektroniske gjerdesystem, prototype1, utvikla av Oscar Hovde Berntsen. NoFence er eit elektronisk gjerdesystem som skal fungere som eit usynleg gjerde ved at dyra får ei korrigering ved kryssing av ei satt grense. Grensa blir satt ved bruk av GPS-signal. Når dyra nærmar seg den usynlege grensa vil dei få eit lydsignal som varsel, som aukar i styrke proporsjonalt med kalkulert avstand frå grensa, før dei til slutt vil få eit straumstøyt om dei ikkje snur. NoFence-prototype1 vart prøvd ut på seks villsauer, seks geiter og tre fjordårslam av rase Norsk kvit og krysning spæl/trøndersau, i løpet av beitesesongen 2010 og 2011. Utprøvinga viste at både sau og geit kan lære systemet med...

Administration of Silver Fir (Abies alba Mill.) to goats and its potential to control gastro-intestinal parasites
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Heckendorn, F.; Giebler-Schubert, F.; Walkenhorst, M.; Fertig, O.; Hamburger, M.; Potterat, O.; Valle-Zárate, A.
Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) substantially impact on goat health. Because of the widespread development of GIN, resistant to allopathic drugs, further research into alternative parasite control methods is required [1]. Silver fir, Abies alba MILL (SF), is traditionally used by Swiss farmers in order to control GIN infections of goats but also to improve animal welfare. A survey among goat farmers revealed that goat farmers use SF in winter during a period of approximately five months. The SF-ration per animal and day differ between approximately 8.2 g dry matter (DM) to 600 g DM [2].    As there is scientific evidence neither for an anthelmintic potential nor for the feed intake and milk performance of SF, we conducted a study with 30 goats. For a 20...

Parasitenmanagement beim Weidegang von Ziegen
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Koopmann, Regine.
Gehen Ziegen auf die Weide sind Wurminfektionen unvermeidlich. Mit vorausschauender Planung lässt sich ohne Leistungseinbußen der Einsatz von Entwurmungsmitteln einschränken. Damit könnte auch die Weiterentwicklung der Anthelminthika-Resistenzen vorgebeugt werden.  Da in den nächsten Jahren keine neuen Wirkstoffe für die Nutztierhaltung in Deutschland zur Verfügung stehen werden, ist es insbesondere in der ökologischen Tierhaltung, da dort wenig strategisch entwurmt wird, aus Tierschutzgründen notwendig,wirksame Wurmmittel zur Heilbehandlung auf dem Markt zu haben. Alle nicht chemischen Maßnahmen zur Verhinderung klinischer Parasitosen, wie z.B. ein kluges Weidemanagement, sollten ergriffen  werden.

Alternating grazing to control parasites in young cattle (Video)
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Alföldi, Thomas.
Within the CORE Organic project MIX-ENABLE, Steffen Werne (FiBL) and his team are testing more sustainable ways of controlling gastrointestinal nematodes in ruminants. Farmers usually control parasites by using dewormers. However, resistance against these products is increasing. One approach is mixed grazing of different livestock species.  It is well known that sheep and goats can benefit from mixed grazing with cattle in terms of animal health and performance. This is because gastrointestinal parasites are usually specialized in one livestock species, and mixed grazing has thus a “diluting” effect.  Conversely, little is known whether young cattle can also benefit from mixed grazing with sheep.  This is what Steffen Werne and his teams want to find out...

The use of feed blocks as supplementation for the upland hill flock: (2) Cost effective lamb production
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: McLean, Barbara M L; Frost, David; Evans, D Eifion.
This report was presented at the UK Organic Research 2002 Conference of the Colloquium of Organic Researchers (COR).Under EU organic livestock regulations introduced in 2000, new restrictions were placed on the use of bought-in feedstuffs in hill systems. These reduced the non-organic annual percentage previously allowed in LFAs from 20% to 10% of annual dry matter intake. A further stepping down of these allowances may be introduced ahead of a complete ban in 2005. Bought-in feed supplements must therefore, be used strategically and offer “best value for money” in terms of ewe performance and lamb growth. The economic cost of supplementing the diet of twin-rearing ewes post lambing with either an approved non-organic feed block + half ration of commercial...

Refined forage legumes as local sources of protein feed for monogastrics and high quality fibre feed for ruminants in organic production
Provedor de dados: 21
Protein supplementation is a challenge in organic livestock production. Use of imported protein feeds on organically managed farms limits the recycling of nutrients. Fractionation of forage legumes, through novel harvesting and biorefining techniques, into protein- and fibre-rich feeds for monogastrics and ruminants, respectively, can increase farm self-sufficiency with feed. Economic, environmental and social sustainability needs to be taken into account when developing concepts for localised food systems.  Mathematical models will be developed for protein yields of lucerne and red clover. Leaf stripping and juice production will be studied in experiments located in different regions in Europe and Turkey and assessed for feed value in monogastrics and...

Opportunities and Barriers for Niche Marketing of Lamb in European LFAs  based on Consumer Attitudes to Product Quality
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold; Ashworth, Stuart; Boutonnet, Jean-Paul; Brunori, Gianluca; Papadopoulus, Ilias.
With commodity prices continuing to decrease and with policy constraint that farmers  cannot easily increase their incomes by increasing volumes of production, they must  find alternative ways to maintain their standard of living. This can be achieved by  either niche marketing of agricultural products or by environmental payments, which  are either paid by the government or the consumer.  The results of a consumer survey carried out in Less Favoured Areas in Scotland,  Germany, Greece, France and Italy to assess consumer attitudes of what constitutes  the quality of lamb and the extent to which this provides an opportunity to exploit  niche marketing, are discussed. Consumers generally have much less interest in the  use of regional labelling,...

Mögliche Effekte von Effektiven Mikroorganismen auf Haemonchus contortus-Larven in vitro
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Podstatzky, Leopold; Gotthalmseder, Eva.
Es gibt viele Berichte über den vielfältigen Einsatz von effektiven Mikroorganismen (EM), unter anderem auch bei der Kontrolle von Parasiten. Das Ziel dieser Studie war es, die Wirkung verschiedener Konzentrationen von EM auf die Wiederfindungsraten infektiöser Larven von Haemonchus contortus zu bewerten. Die Studie wurde mit Hilfe von Grasproben unter Laborbedingungen durchgeführt. 4 und 10 Tage nach Aufbringen der Larven auf das Gras wurden die Larven gezählt. Es wurde eine zeitabhängige Verminderung der Wiederfindungsrate festgestellt. Die EM Gruppen wiesen eine signifikant geringere Wiederfindungsrate als die Kontrollgruppe auf. Das Aufbringen von EM auf Gras führte zu einer Reduktion der infektiösen Drittlarven unter Laborbedingungen.

Tanniferous forage plants: Agronomic performance, palatability and efficacy against parasitic nematodes in sheep
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Häring, D.A.; Scharenberg, A.; Heckendorn, F.; Dohme, F.; Lüscher, A.; Maurer, V.; Suter, D.; Hertzberg, H.
Tanniferous forage plants can have beneficial effects on ruminant productivity and health (improved protein supply, bloat safety and antiparasitic properties). However, condensed tannins can also lower palatability, voluntary feed intake and digestibility. The aim of our interdisciplinary project was to generate basic knowledge on plant management, feed palatability and the antiparasitic properties of tanniferous forage plants for their practical application in agronomy, focusing on their usefulness in controlling gastrointestinal nematodes in organic farming. We found that Onobrychis viciifolia (sainfoin), Lotus corniculatus (birdsfoot trefoil) and Cichorium intybus (chicory) were suitable for cultivation under the given temperate climatic conditions,...

Icke-kemisk kontroll av magtarmparasiter (nematoder) hos får genom kontrollerad frisläppning av den antiparasitära svampen Duddingtonia flagrans
Provedor de dados: 21
Både frekvensen och allvarlighetsgraden av sjukdomar orsakade av magtarmparasiter (nematoder) har ökat i svenska fårbesättningar under senare år. Det beror delvis på en ökning av antalet ekologiska besättningar. Att enbart följa gällande regler för ekologisk husdjursproduktion utan att ta hänsyn till konsekvenserna för parasitära sjukdomar och införa alternativa kontrollmetoder är inte ekonomiskt och etiskt försvarbart.

Status Quo and barriers of the expansion of organic sheep husbandry in Germany
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Klumpp, Carolin; Häring, Anna Maria.
Conclusions  Potential development of sheep husbandry in organic farming in Germany was identified as follows:  - Optimisation of existing sheep husbandry in organic farming:   The main problems resulting from Council Regulation (EC) No. 2092/91 are appropriate feeding and lamb breeding strategies and health management. To address these weaknesses further research activities are necessary.  - Conversion of conventional sheep farms to organic production methods  will only become an interesting option when the problems identified are addressed. Only then support measures will actually become an incentive to convert.  - Introduction of sheep husbandry in existing organic farms:  Sheep husbandry can easily be introduced in existing organic farms due to the...

The special quality of foods from alpine grazing systems concerning their fatty acid (FA)composition is well established. However, the contribution of different specific vegetationtypes and the animal’s genotype to this alpine effect is still unclear. In the present study,the FA profiles of muscle and adipose tissue lipids were determined in lambs that hadgrazed either an intensively managed lowland pasture or one of three characteristic alpinevegetation types differing in plant species number and composition, forage quality andamount, and composition of phenolic compounds and FA. On each vegetation type and intwo subsequent years, two groups of lambs (seven Engadine sheep, ES; and seven ValaisianBlack Nose sheep, VS) grazed for 9 weeks and were...

En Tunisie, la viande d’agneau de race Barbarine élevé sur parcours est reconnue par une meilleure qualité nutritionnelle (MajdoubMathlouthi et al., 2010). Néanmoins, la qualité du parcours est très dépendante de la pluviométrie, et il parait bien impératif de trouver d’autres types de pâturage pour réussir l’élevage en MB. L’objectif de cette étude était d’évaluer la qualité de la viande d’agneaux élevés sur deux types de pâturage: le parcours naturel et une prairie d’orge en vert.

The advantages of low input livestock production on large or unfenced pastures, including high animal welfare, positive impacts on biodiversity and low production costs may be challenged by losses due to undetected disease, accidents and predation. Precision livestock farming (PLF) systems enable remote monitoring on an individual level with the potential for predictive warning. Monitoring body temperature (Tb) and heart rate (HR) could allow for development of early warning systems for not only sickness and behavior, but also oestrus or parturition. In this study, we tested physiological sensors in free grazing Norwegian white sheep in Norway. Forty Tb sensors and thirty HR sensors were surgically implanted in 40 lambs and 10 ewes; 20 lambs in one herd...

Vergleich verschiedener Aufzuchtverfahren bei Milchschaflämmern, insbesondere unter Berücksichtigung der neuen EU-Richtlinie 2092/91 für die ökologische Tierhaltung
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Reps, Antje.
Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Vergleich verschiedener Aufzuchtverfahren bei Milchschaflämmern unter Berücksichtigung der VO (EWG) 2092/91. Während der Lammzeit 1999 wurde ein begleitender Praxisversuch auf zwei Höfen mit natürlicher und mit künstlicher Aufzucht (Milchaustauscher) durchgeführt. Während dieser Zeit wurden Daten zu den Lämmern und zur Wirtschaftlichkeit der einzelnen Verfahren gesammelt. Für einen Vergleich der täglichen Zunahmen fand eine Wiegung der Lämmer im dreiwöchigen Rhythmus auf beiden Höfen statt. Allerdings erwies sich ein objektiver Vergleich zwischen den Praxisbetrieben als nur bedingt möglich. Um bei der Wirtschaftlichkeit etwaige spezielle Unterschiede zwischen den beiden untersuchten Betrieben auszuschließen, wurden...

Endoparasitenforschung für die   Ökologische Weidewirtschaft
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Koopmann, Regine.
In der ökologischen Tierhaltung ist der Weidegang unverzichtbar. Mit Weidegang ist jedoch ein erhöhtes Risiko für Endoparasiteninfektionen verbunden. Um die Gesundheit der Tiere zu erhalten bei möglichst geringem Arzneimittelverbrauch, sind angepasste Strategien erforderlich. Einige Verfahren werden hier vorgestellt. Vorausschauendes Weidemanagement und gezieltes, selektives Entwurmen kann den Einsatz von Entwurmungsmitteln deutlich reduzieren. Die Kontrolle der Endoparasiten in der ökologischen Weidewirtschaft ist anspruchsvoll und benötigt zusätzliche Arbeitsstunden und Weideflächen.

Berechnung der Produktionskosten von biologischer Ziegenmilch
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Govaerts, Wim; van Eekeren, Nick.
Eine Prognose der Produktionskosten für das Jahr 2008 ergibt durchschnittlich 80,27 je 100 Liter Milch, umgerechnet auf 7 % Fett und Eiweiß, während die Prognose des gezahlten Milchpreises bei den heutigen Absprachen möglicherweise den Durchschnittswert von 68,80 je 100 Liter Milch, umgerechnet auf 7 % Fett und Eiweiß, erreichen könnte.    Im Fazit können wir die Aussage vertreten, dass die Produktionskosten für biologisch produzierte Ziegenmilch weit über dem Milcherzeugerpreis liegen und dass diese Schere sich in Anbetracht der Entwicklungen im Hinblick auf Milchpreis-Steigerungen und Kostenbeherrschung in der jüngsten Vergangenheit erst ganz geringfügig schließt.

The known influence of forage composition on fatty acid (FA) profiles in ruminants’ meat and milk may be different for other organs. Therefore, in the present study FA profiles of phospholipids in lung tissue, heart muscle and brain (medulla oblongata) were examined in growing Engadine and Valaisian Blacknose sheep grazing 4 pastures of different botanical composition, whereof three were extensively managed natural mountain swards. An intensively managed lowland pasture represented the control. On each pasture type, 6–7 lambs of each breed (54 in total) grazed for 9 weeks and were subsequently slaughtered. Tissue samples were taken at slaughter, homogenized and analyzed for FA profiles after phospholipid extraction. Response to the diets was  tissue...

Autores: Kidane, Alemayehu; Sørheim, Kristin; Eik, Lars Olav; Steinshamn, Håvard.
We report results from trials on chicory growth (experiment 1) and lamb growth on chicory (experiment 2). In experiment  1, we assessed yield and chemical composition on swards established under organic conditions as perennial ryegrass/red  clover, perennial ryegrass/chicory, chicory/red clover (CHRC), pure perennial ryegrass (RG-alone) and pure chicory (CHalone)  over two years. Chicory/red clover and CH-alone showed improved crude protein, Ca, Mg, P, Cu and net energy  contents compared to other mixtures. However, dry matter yield was the lowest for CHRC and CH-alone compared to  others. In experiment 2, 48 weaned lambs grazed swards sown as chicory alone (CHA), chicory–grass–clover mix (CGC) or  grass–clover mix (GCM) for 45 days. Lamb body weight (BW)...

This report was presented at the UK Organic Research 2002 Conference. The study was designed to examine the hypothesis that chicory (Cichorium intybus) and Lotus sp. (Lotus corniculatus) have the potential to affect the naturally acquired nematode burden in grazed lambs. Organic male castrate lambs (48) with a naturally acquired parasite burden grazed replicate combination plots (0.6 ha) of chicory, Lotus corniculatus, perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) and white clover (Trifolium repens). Lamb performance was determined by weekly weight gain and condition score assessments. Nematode burden was assessed by individual lamb faecal egg count (FEC) before and after drenching (levamisole). The range of parasitic helminths present was assessed by faecal culture...

Effects of distribution of quebracho extracts on experimental Haemonchus contortus infections in goats
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: V., Paolini; F., Prevot; Ph., Dorchies; H., Hoste.
The effects of tannins on adult populations of Haemonchus contortus, Trichostrongylus colubriformis and Teladorsagia circumcincta  in goats are characterised mainly by a decrease in egg excretion without any significant changes in worm number. In contrast,  the impact of tannins on T. colubriformis or T. circumcincta third-stage larvae (L3) is associated with a significant reduction in worm  establishment. The objective of the present study was to examine the effects of quebracho extract tannins on H. contortus L3. The  consequences of consumption of sainfoin hay were also examined.  Twenty-one naı¨ve kids were divided into three experimental groups. Group Q received quebracho extract and group S received  sainfoin hay from days D3 to D5. Group C remained...

Die Eignung der Leitfähigkeitsmessung zur Eutergesundheitsüberwachung bei Milchschafen
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Barth, Kerstin; Burow, Elke; Knappstein, Karin; Ubben, Ernst-Heinrich.
Sheep milk production is not very common in Germany. Only 10,000 sheep are used for milking. However, a considerable number of farmers work according to the stan-dards of organic farming. Only farm dairies process the milk and sell the products directly to the consumer. Thus, the quality of the raw milk has to be high although the EU regulations for sheep milk are not as strict as for cow’s milk. Animal recording is not a standard in dairy sheep production and farmers lack the information which might be gained by this monthly monitoring of each animal. Animal side tests are necessary and the aim of our study was to investigate the usability of conductivity measurement as an indicator of sub clinical mastitis in ewes. Data were collected from 164 ewes in...

Agroecology uses natural processes and local resources rather than chemical inputs to ensure production while limiting the environmental footprint of livestock and crop production systems. Selecting to achieve a maximization of target production criteria has long proved detrimental to fitness traits. However, since the 1990s, developments in animal breeding have also focussed on animal robustness by balancing production and functional traits within overall breeding goals. We discuss here how an agroecological perspective should further shift breeding goals towards functional traits rather than production traits. Breeding for robustness aims to promote individual adaptive capacities by considering diverse selection criteria which include reproduction,...

In Australia and New Zealand the formulation of breeding values for GIN resistance led to large selection programs in sheep successfully improving genetic resistance to GIN. Compared to sheep, the progress with respect to breeding for GIN resistance for various reasons has been much slower in goats. Data on heritabilities of potential auxiliary traits for selection and knowledge about their genetic correlation to production traits is limited. The present Swiss study was designed to fill this gap.  A total of 1.500 goats (20 flocks) of the Alpine and Saanen breed were enrolled in the study. They were individually phenotyped twice for faecal egg count (FEC), FEC of Haemonchus (HCFEC; using fluorescin based differentiation of eggs), FAMACHA eye scores and...

No data about lactation yield and milk performance for organic dairy goat keeping are  available. Particularly information about the impact of grazing under different weather  conditions and changes in herd composition are missing. The milk records of the  experimental dairy goat herd at the research station in Northern Germany show the  impact of management mistakes, wet weather conditions and changes in herd composition.  When grazing starts in the spring and early summer, , all efforts must be made  to ensure high milk yields. If the weather is too wet, goats should kept indoor at night.  Last but not least, the changes in herd composition should be made carefully. Too  many does in first lactation and does with more than four lactations reduce the milk...

Autores: D., BAHUAUD; C., MARTINEZ-ORTIZ DE MONTELLANO; S., CHAUVEAU; F, PREVOT; F., TORRES-ACOSTA; I., FOURASTE; H., HOSTE.
The anthelmintic properties of tanniferous plants and of their secondary metabolites represent one possible alternative to  chemotherapy that is currently being explored as a means of achieving sustainable control of gastrointestinal nematodes in  ruminants. Previous in vivo and in vitro results suggest that tanniferous plants can have direct anti-parasitic effect against  different stages of nematodes. However, the mode of action of the bioactive plant compounds remains obscure. The  objectives of the current study were (1) to examine the hypothesis that extracts of tanniferous plants might interfere with  the exsheathment of third-stage infective larvae (L3); (2) to assess the role of tannins in the process by examining the  consequence of adding an...

Although the use of tanniferous plants or condensed tannins as an alternative to anthelmintics to  control gastrointestinal nematodes has been largely documented in sheep, studies remain scarce in  goats. The objective of this study was therefore to assess the possible impact of condensed tannins  in goats infected with adult Haemonchus contortus. Two groups of cull goats were experimentally  infected with 10.000 L3 of H. contortus. After 4 weeks, quebracho extracts, representing 5%  of the diet DM, were administered for 8 days to one of the two groups. Goats of the second  group remained as controls. One week after the end of quebracho administration, the goats were  euthanised. Individual egg excretion and pathophysiological parameters were measured...

Abstract  The aim of the experiment was to verify the efficacy of the treatment of psoroptic mange in a flock of Churra sheep farmed under organic production conditions, using alternative methods. One group, C Control (N=9), was given no treatment, a second group, TAH Antihomotoxic (N=10), was intramuscularly administered an antihomotoxic preparation every two days, thus receiving a total of seven injections over a two-week period. The third group, TCI Citronella (N=10), was topically administered a 1% solution of 50%essential Citronella Java oil and 50% Potassium Soap twice daily, in each milking, during the two-week period. A fourth group, TCIT Citronella+Thymol (N=10), was topically administered Citronella with 1% mother tincture of Thymol to boost the...

PrOPara: Report on helminth parasite control strategies cross organic farms in Europe
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Werne, Steffen; Thüer, Susann; Grovermann, Christian; Moakes, Simon.
In recent years, a number of reports have been published on current practices for helminth control in the EU, but none in organic ruminants. As conventional and organic farms differ in their helminth control strategies, it is essential to record the current control practices for organic farms across EU, identify obstacles that hamper the implementation of innovations and determine farmers’ disposition towards such innovations to facilitate the implementation of appropriate innovations.  Within the PrOPara project WP 4.1 was addressing the status quo of nematode control in organic ruminant farms across Europe. This did not only include the helminth management strategies, which are currently implemented, but also farmers’ perception towards nematode control...

Autores: Cullen, Richard; Lampkin, Nic; Moakes, Simon.
The supply situation for Welsh organic meat  Organic production in Wales has been developing steadily in the last five years, with particular emphasis on organic cattle and sheep production. This was despite over-supply conditions in some sectors, notably dairy, following the very rapid growth in 1999/2000.  Between the end of 2002 and end of 2005, the number of holdings increased by 12% to 688, and the certified land area increased by 29% to 71,000 hectares, of which more than 90% is grassland. Growth in Wales has exceeded other parts of the UK, reaching 5% of agricultural land by end 2005. More rapid growth is projected for 2006 and possibly 2007.  Organic cattle and sheep numbers have also increased steadily between 2003 and 2005, with total cattle...

Untersuchungen zur Aufzucht von Schaf- und Ziegenlämmern mit arteigener und artfremder Milch
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Barth, Kerstin.
During the last years, the number of dairy goats and sheep in Germany steadily in-creased, and at least ten percent of these animals are kept under conditions of or-ganic farming. A few months of the year milk is unavailable due to the seasonal repro-duction of sheep and goats. In organic farming, this gap is increased by the demand of lamb rearing with milk of the mother animal. A main part of the whole milk production has to be used for lamb feeding instead of processing cheese. This financial loss might be reduced if organic milk of cows is available. However, the milk composition of cows, sheep and goats is different and this might lead to health problems of the lambs when cow’s milk is used as a substitute. The study aimed for an answer on this...

Animal health strategies in organic and conventional meat sheep production
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: NICOURT, C.; BENOIT, M.; LAIGNEL, G.; CABARET, J.
Sixteen meat sheep farms (nine conventional and seven organic) in the centre of France were surveyed to evaluate their economic and production performances (previous interviews) and their strategies related to animal health with particular attention to internal parasites (present interview on health strategies). The organic farms were surveyed in mid-September 2006 and the conventional ones in October 2007. Each interview (1½ or 2 h) included a visit of the farm (with the collection of faeces for evaluation of internal parasites), followed by an open discussion on sheep production and health problems, and parasitic infections, in particular. The discussion was recorded and then transcribed into a word processor file and analysed. The farmers agreed on the...

Non chemical control of helminths in ruminants: Adapting solutions for changing worms in a changing world
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Hoste, H.; Torres-Acosta, J.F.J.
Infections with gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) remain a major threat for ruminant production, health and welfare associated with outdoor breeding. The control of these helminth parasites has relied on the strategic or tactical use of chemical anthelmintic (AH) drugs.  However, the expanding development and diffusion of anthelmintic resistance in nematode populations imposes the need to explore and validate novel solutions (or to re-discover old knowledge) for a more sustainable control of GIN. The different solutions refer to three main principles of action. The first one is to limit the contact between the hosts and the infective larvae in the field through grazing management methods. The latter were described since the 1970s and, at present, they...

Evaluation of three tools for assessing infection by gastrointestinal parasites in pasture-fed organic lambs
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: BOUILHOL, M.; CABARET, C.; FOESSEL, M.
Organic meat sheep producers have a very limited array of efficient alternative drugs and limited access to synthetic drugs for controlling internal parasites. The use of targeted selective treatments, e.g., treating only the lambs that cannot cope with infection, would be of interest. The difficulty is to identify those lambs in need of treatment. FAMACHA© (based on an anaemia indicator) has been used with success in tropical areas where the bloodsucker worm Haemonchus contortus is the main gastrointestinal strongyle. The appearance of the wool is sometimes used to determine the necessity of treatment, and a spectrofluorometric analysis of the wool was tested. Shepherds may also detect lambs with poor, medium and good body conditions, on the basis of...

Autores: Novoa-Garrido, Margarita; Aanensen, Lise; Jensen, Søren K.; Steinshamn, Håvard.
Vitamin E is important for ruminants to maintain an optimal immune function, reproduction traits and a high quality of milk and meat. Synthetic vitamin E consists of 87.5% tocopherol molecules with a non-natural configuration and is biological ineffective.   The aim of this project is to study the effects of supplementing the diets with seaweed meal or oil seeds extracts as natural vitamin E sources on the immune system and gastrointestinal microbiota in sheep and their off-springs. Of special interest is the group fed with seaweed meal, since seaweed is an abundant and easy accessible raw material on the Norwegian coastline with a huge economical potential.  The study includes 40 ewes and their future lambs. The animals will be followed from mating until...

This study investigated the dose-dependent response in lamb meat of stable nitrogen isotope ratio to the dietary proportion of legumes, and the ability of the nitrogen isotope signature of the meat to authenticate meat produced from legume-rich diets. Four groups of nine male Romane lambs grazing a cocksfoot pasture were supplemented with different levels of fresh alfalfa forage to obtain four dietary proportions of alfalfa (0%, 25%, 50% and 75%) for 98 days on average before slaughter (groups L0, L25, L50 and L75).  We measured the stable nitrogen isotope ratio in the forages and in the longissimus thoracis muscle. The d15N value of the meat decreased linearly with the dietary proportion of alfalfa. The distribution of the d15N values of the meat...

Sixteen lambs were divided into two groups and fed two different diets. Eight lambs were stall-fed with a concentrate-based diet (C), and the remaining eight lambs were allowed to graze on Lolium perenne (G). The antioxidant status was measured in the liver and plasma samples before and after solid-phase extraction (SPE) to probe the antioxidant effects that grass phenolic compounds may have conferred onto the animal tissues. The liver and plasma samples from grass-fed lambs displayed a greater antioxidant capacity than the tissues from C lamb group, but only if samples had not been passed through SPE cartridges. Finally, the feed and animal tissues, which had been purified by SPE, were analysed by liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometry...

The control of gastrointestinal sheep nematodes with tanniferous forage plants
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Heckendorn, Felix.
Infections with gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) represent a major constraint in sheep husbandry. For many years, the control of these parasites has solely relied on the repeated use of synthetic anthelmintics. However, the emergence of resistant GIN populations and the increasing concern of consumers for drug residues in animal products have provided a strong impetus towards the development of alternative strategies to control GIN. Amongst those, the administration of tanniferous fodder plants to infected animals received prime attention in the last decade, and although a considerable body of knowledge on this strategy has been accumulated, many questions remain to be answered.  In sheep and goats, the anthelmintic effects observed in response to...

Tick-borne fever in sheep - production loss and preventive measures
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Grøva, Lise.
A major challenge in sheep farming during the grazing season along the coast of south-western Norway is tick-borne fever (TBF) caused by the bacteria Anaplasma phagocytophilum, that is transmitted by the tick Ixodes ricinus. The justification for this study is based on our limited knowledge on the effect of A. phagocytophilum infection on indirect losses i.e. reduced weight gain and weaning weight in lambs. Further, there is a lack of efficient and sustainable preventive measures to tick-infestation and TBF which implies a need for new knowledge. Knowledge on the effect of age of lamb to a natural A. phagocytophilum infection and genetic variation in robustness to A. phagocytophilum infection are possible preventive measures that are investigated in this...

Sainfoin – new data on anthelmintic effects and production in sheep and goats
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Heckendorn, F.; Werne, S.; Maurer, V.; Perler, E.; Amsler, Z.; Probst, J.; Zaugg, C.; Krenmayr, I.
Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) are one of the most important problems affecting health and therefore performance and welfare in small ruminant husbandry. The control of these parasites in the past strongly relied on the repeated use of anthelmintic drugs. This has led to nematode populations which are resistant to most of the currently available anthelmintics. Furthermore customer's demands for organic and residue free animal products are increasing. The aforementioned problems have given a strong impetus for the development of new non-chemical strategies to control GIN. Previous research has pointed out the anthelmintic potential of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia, cv. Visnovsky) and other tanniferous (CT) feed sources in goats and lambs infected with...

Züchterische Aspekte in der Nutztierhaltung im ökologischen Landbau und der Biotoppflege [Breeding aspects in Organic farming and landscape management]
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
Im ökologischen Landbau und in der Biotoppflege handelt es sich um eine In-situ-Haltung mit einem züchterischen Fortschritt gegenüber der Ex-situ-Haltung z.B. in zoologischen Gärten oder privaten Rassezüchtern. Beiden Formen kommt eine wichtige Rolle in der Art- und Rassenerhalten landwirtschaftlicher Nutztiere zu, sie ist jedoch nur als Notlösung akzeptabel. Züchterische Arbeit in Hinblick auf Arten- und Rassenvielfalt landwirtschaftlicher Nutztiere muß sich an den neuen Funktionen  und Leistungserwartungen orientieren. Dies ist nicht nur ethisch sondern auch ökonomisch sinnvoll und erforderlich.

Unterstützung der betrieblichen Endoparasitenbekämpfung der Wiederkäuer im Ökolandbau - Entscheidungsbaum für Rinder / Schafe / Ziegen
Provedor de dados: 21
In der ökologischen Weidehaltung von Wiederkäuern sind Infektionen mit Magen-Darm-Parasiten und Lungenwürmern unvermeidlich. Ein geschicktes Weidemanagement, zusammen mit Entwurmungen und Kontrollen der Eiausscheidung können die Mengen der verabreichten Arzneimittel optimieren. Die Entwicklung eines internet-basierten Entscheidungsbaumes für die Kontrolle der Endoparasiten, anzuwenden durch den Landwirt und den Tierarzt, soll den betrieblichen mehrstufigen Entscheidungsprozess mit mehreren Alternativen unterstützen. Die Website soll frei und kostenlos zugänglich sein und auf www.oekolandbau.de verlinkt werden.  Angaben zur Finanzierung des Projekts finden Sie im Förderkatalog des Bundes unter http://foerderportal.bund.de/foekat/jsp/StartAction.do. Bitte...

Schafe und Ziegen: Der Resistenzbildung bei Parasiten vorbeugen
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Heckendorn, Felix.
Die Behandlung von Magen-Darm-Parasiten ist auf vielen Schaf- und Ziegenbetrieben immer schwieriger; die noch wirksamen Medikamente werden knapp. Resistenzen gegen Entwurmungsmittel werden zunehmen. Für die Tierhalter ist es deshalb sehr wichtig, die Möglichkeiten der Vorsorge und des gezielten Einsatzes dieser Mittel zu kennen, um die Wirksamkeit der noch verfügbaren Medikamente möglichst lange zu erhalten.

Long term performance of organic farming in the hills and uplands - Redesdale and Pwllpeiran organic units - OF0368
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Anon,.
During the 1990’s significant areas of hill and upland in the UK were converted to organic production. In the short term, this was driven by the downturn in conventional prices for beef and sheep, and the aid to conversion payments available. In more recent years there has been an expansion of organic farming in lowland beef and sheep, and arable systems. This provides a better opportunity to integrate hill and lowland production, and address some of the problems of infrastructure e.g. organic concentrate feed supply and limited finishing capacity for hill livestock. Decoupling of EU support from production, through the single farm payment scheme, will affect the financial performance and longer-term sustainability of both organic and conventional...

Landschaftspflege mit Ziegen - Die Pflege von Magerrasen kann für Öko-Betriebe ökonomisch sein
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
Aufgrund ihrer Futterselektion und dem breiten Futterartenspektrum eignen sich Ziegen für die Beweidung von Standorten auf denen Rinder, Pferde und Schafe kein ausreichendes Futter finden würden.  Es gibt allerdings nur wenige Erfahrungen in der Biotoppflege mit Ziegen, sodass es immer wieder zu Fehleinschätzungen und falschen Handlungen kommt.  Hier sollen einige Orientierungswerte zu den Themen Biotop-Arten, Weidemanagement, Tiergesundheit sowie zur Ökonomie angegeben werden, um eine betriebsindividuelle Planung und Umsetzung der Landschaftspflege mit Ziegen zu erleichtern und Fehler zu vermeiden. Ein Schwerpunkt bilden die besonderen Bedingungen bei der Beweidung von verbuschten, hängigen oder feuchten Flächen.

Effects of condensed tannins on established populations and on incoming larvae of   Trichostrongylus colubriformis and Teladorsagia circumcincta  in goats
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Virginie, PAOLINI; Andrey, FRAYSSINES; France, DE LA FARGE; Philipe, DORCHIES; Hervé, HOSTE.
The use of tanniferous plants or tannins represents one alternative approach to the  control of gastrointestinal parasites in ruminants but most data have been obtained in sheep. The  current study was therefore performed in goats with two objectives: firstly, to investigate the effects  of condensed tannins (CT) on adult populations of Trichostrongylus colubriformis and Teladorsagia  circumcincta; secondly, to examine their effects on the establishment of infective larvae of these  two species. In experiment 1, two groups of kids were infected with 6 000 L3 of T. colubriformis  and 6 000 L3 of T. circumcincta. After 7 weeks, quebracho extracts were administered per os for  8 days to one group. A comparable group which did not receive tannins was included...

A comparative study of clinical manifestations, haematological and serological responses after experimental infection with Anaplasma phagocytophilum in two Norwegian sheep breeds
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Stuen, Snorre; Grøva, Lise; Granquist, Erik G; Sandstedt, Karin; Olesen, Ingrid; Steinshamn, Håvard.
Background: It has been questioned if the old native Norwegian sheep breed, Old Norse Sheep (also called  Norwegian Feral Sheep), normally distributed on coastal areas where ticks are abundant, is more protected against  tick-borne infections than other Norwegian breeds due to a continuously high selection pressure on pasture. The  aim of the present study was to test this hypothesis in an experimental infection study.  Methods: Five-months-old lambs of two Norwegian sheep breeds, Norwegian White (NW) sheep and Old Norse  (ON) sheep, were experimentally infected with a 16S rRNA genetic variant of Anaplasma phagocytophilum (similar  to GenBank accession number M73220). The experiment was repeated for two subsequent years, 2008 and 2009,  with the use of 16...

Alternative forage crops for finishing lambs
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: McLean, Barbara.
Alternative forage crops offer a number of benefits for farmers including a cheap finishing system for lambs, benefits for soil condition, fertility building for rotations and providing a cover crop. Certain forages have also been demonstrated to have some anthelmintic benefits for lambs. A demonstration study was undertaken to investigate the potential of six crops used in the horticulture industry (fertility building crops) as forage crops for weaned growing lambs. The crops include white mustard, Nemat (form of Rocket), Crimson Clover, Sweet Clover , Caliente 119 and Caliente 99 (Cruciferae). The grazing field was split into three blocks and two crops were sown in solid strips in each block. Each block also had grass headlands. 10 ewe lambs were...

Eight years of organic farming at Pwllpeiran – livestock production and the financial performance of organic upland
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Frost, David; McLean, Barbara M L; Evans, D Eifion.
This report was presented at the UK Organic Research 2002 Conference. Established for 8 years, this project evaluates the practicalities of organic beef and sheep production on an upland farm in an ESA. Grassland productivity, stocking rates and animal performance are closely related to seasonal variations in the clover content of the small area of improved land. Improving sales have been offset by increasing input costs. Subsidy payments assist financial performance, but ESA prescriptions effectively prevent increased production.

On farm organic dairy sheep and goat breeding in Germany
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
In the period from 1992 to 1998 the fat and protein yield of both flocks could be increased. A specific breeding strategy had an important contribution to the increase but the environmental impacts on animal productivity is enormous (e.g. the very wet summer season 1994). A wrong decision in breeding bucks (dairy sheep in 1992-1994) had an negative effect on the productivity.

Whether farming strategies built on continuing input intensification or relying on integrated natural resource management are more sustainable and competitive is at the core of the agricultural development debate. The five-year (2011–16) Sustainable Organic and Low Input Dairying (SOLID) project, funded by the European Commission, involved 25 partners across 10 European countries and was designed to support innovation in European organic and low-input dairy farming. Results show that such systems are very diverse, and need tailor-made farm-specific strategies and related policy measures. This article shows that low-input dairying has country-specific farm characteristics, and is potentially competitive when compared to more intensive dairying systems....

Schafhaltung im Ökolandbau – Lohnt es sich alte Rassen einzusetzen ?
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
In den letzten Jahrzehnten wurde die Angepasstheit der Tiere an die lokalen Verhältnisse (Klima, Futterqualität, Krankheitsdruck) immer unwichtiger. Die ganzjährige Stallhaltung, Tierarzneimittel und optimierte Fütterung ermöglichten eine einseitige Zucht auf Höchstleistungen, die unter den üblichen Klima- und Futterbedingungen nicht möglich gewesen wären. Diese Ausrichtung der Zucht war so erfolgreich, dass heute die meisten Nutztierarten nur noch aus wenigen Hochleistungsrassen bzw. -linien bestehen. Die weniger leistungsfähigen Rassen sind vielfach vom Aussterben bedroht. In der ökologischen Tierhaltung werden die lokalen Umweltbedingungen hingegen wieder bedeutsamer. Die Reduzierung von Zukauffutter, begrenzter Kraftfutteranteil in der Fütterung,...

Do endangered sheep breeds have an advantage in organic farming?
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
Endangered breeds are not compulsory for organic farming, but adapted and local breeds are considered suitable for Organic Farming. In the year 2001, 240 ewes of six different breeds were introduced on the experimental farm of the Institute of Organic Farming in Trenthorst. Two were high yielding breeds, four older endangered German breeds. The whole herd was kept in one herd in a low input – low output system, comparable to agri-environmental schemes. The scientific programme was to follow the herd’s development in terms of health status, growth rate and product qualities.   After three lambing seasons, no real advantages could be found for the old breeds. Nevertheless, high yielding and old breeds did not show big differences in production and health...

En élevage biologique, les traitements hormonaux pour gérer la reproduction des animaux (induction et synchronisation des chaleurs) sont interdits, alors qu'ils sont fréquemment utilisés en élevages ovins et caprins conventionnels. Leur utilisation dans ces derniers pourrait toutefois être remise en cause par une nouvelle réglementation. Afin de proposer des alternatives en termes de gestion de la reproduction en élevages ovins et caprins, le programme Casdar Reprobio s'est penché sur deux innovations :   - l'utilisation de phéromones de synthèse pour induire les chaleurs ;   - des appareils de détection automatisés des chaleurs.

Saponins from Nartheciumossifragum and / or toxins from cyanobacteria have been found to be hepatotoxic and can cause photosensitization in mammals. In our preliminary study we have looked at whether it is possible to develop a bolus with toxinbinding substances which can be used in the Critical grazing period. We have developed and tested the shape, size and weight of a possible bolus, and conducted a precipitation reaction in a simulated sheep stomach.

Autores: Bestman, Monique; Eekeren, Nick van; Luske, Boki; Vonk, Mark; Anssems, Emiel; Boosten, Martijn; Bree, Miriam van.
In the Netherlands networks of goat, cow and poultry farmers started to grow trees in their fields and outdoor runs. This was done for different reasons: animal welfare (shelter); production of fodder, biomass, litter or fruits; spread of minerals from manure; increase biodiversity; keep away certain wild animals that carry diseases. In this abstract we present the project activities and the first experiences from the farmers. The so-called ‘silvopastoral’ systems (= combination of trees and animals) are applied traditionally already long times in Africa and Mediterranean countries. Now we apply them in modern, relatively high input animal husbandry systems.

Herbage selenium (Se) concentration is generally low in Norway. It is unknown, if feeding practises on Norwegian organic farms fulfil the dietary need of Se and vitamin E to sheep and dairy cattle. Therefore, we analysed Se in soil and herbage, and Se and vitamin E in animal blood in the indoor feeding season at 14 organic dairy and 14 organic sheep farms. The herbage Se concentration was low. Approximately 50 and 35 % of all samples in the first and second cut, respectively, had Se concentrations below the detection limit of 0.01 mg/kg dry matter (DM). The median (10th, 90th percentile) Se concentrations were &lt;0.01 (&lt;0.01, 0.03) and 0.02 (&lt;0.01, 0.06) mg/kg DM in the first and second cuts, respectively.

Autores: Koopmann, Regine.
Der Weidegang für Wiederkäuer ist ein Qualitätskennzeichen des Öko-Landbaus. Allerdings erfordert diese Haltungsform ein besonderes Augenmerk auf die Endoparasitenbelastung  der Tiere. Auch im Öko-Landbau ist der Erhalt der Tiergesundheit – in diesem Fall des Wohlbefindens und der Freiheit von klinischen Erscheinungen infolge des Parasitenbefalls  – ein Oberziel eines jeden Betriebes.Wie kann dies erreicht werden?  Die Vermeidung von Wurminfektionen durch gutes Herden- und Gesundheitsmanagement ist die prioritäre Strategie im Öko-Landbau. Dieses gelingt aber nur in Ausnahmen, fast alle Wiederkäuer mit Weidegang sind mit Parasiten infiziert. Bei hoher Belastung treten klinische Erscheinungen auf, Todesfälle sind vielfach die Folge, wenn nichts getan wird.

Im ökologischen Landbau werden Lämmer zur Fleischerzeugung meist in Weidehaltung oder einer Kombination mit Stallhaltung gemästet. In diesen Haltungsformen ist die perfekte Energie- und Proteinversorgung schwierig zu realisieren. Ein Hauptproblem sind dabei die Anforderungen an die extensive Bewirtschaftung sowie Programme zum Naturschutz, welche zu niedrigen Erträgen und einer geringen Qualität des Futters führen kann. Daher ist eine abschließende Mästung der Lämmer im Stall nötig um die Anforderungen des Marktes zu erfüllen.

The ecological fat lamb production is a branch of meat production extremely exposed to the turbulences of the market.  If sheep meat production shall be based on market requirements, the interests of all market partners have to be considered. The consumers want to have a high meat quality.  The carcass performance of lambs is influenced by the fattening system (ecological or usual). With the finishing procedures applied it was possible to produce heavy ecological lambs with a good carcass quality.

Eutergesundheitsüberwachung bei Milchschafen und Milchziegen  - welche Methoden sind geeignet?
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Barth, Kerstin.
Eutererkrankungen sind nicht der Krankheitskomplex, der an erster Stelle genannt wird, wenn man an Krankheiten bei kleinen Wiederkäuern denkt. Trotzdem haben sie vermutlich eine gleich große Bedeutung wie bei Milchkühen. Ganz besonders wenn man die Milchleistungsminderungen in Betracht zieht, welche durch die subklinische, d. h. durch visuelle Beurteilung des Vorgemelks und des Euterzustandes nicht erkennbare, Form der Mastitis betrachtet.  In der erwerbsmäßigen Milchschaf- bzw. Milchziegenhaltung kommt der Gesunderhaltung des wichtigsten „Betriebsmittels“, dem Euter, somit eine ganz besondere Bedeutung zu. Dabei muss die Prophylaxe in Form einer tiergerechten Haltung, leistungsgerechten Fütterung sowie eines Euter schonenden Milchentzugs stets im...

Vitaminstatus hos får i ekologisk produktion
Provedor de dados: 21
Idisslare har behov av tillförsel av vitaminerna A, D och E. Vitamin A är viktigt bl.a. för synen, fruktsamheten och immunförsvaret. Behovet tillgodoses dock normalt på bete och med en foderstat med god foderkvalitet. Lagringsskadat foder kan innehålla för låga mängder. Vitamin D finns bl.a. i soltorkat grovfoder och bildas även i huden. Det mest kända bristsymptomet är rakitis. Tillväxten påverkas också. Vid ensilageutfodring på stall under längre perioder kan tillförseln tänkas bli i lägsta laget. Hur kan man ordna D-vitamin-försörjningen om man inte får ge syntetiska tillskott? Det mest kända vitaminbehovet hos får är hos tackor i samband med lamningen. Det har att göra med lammens låga E-vitaminstatus vid födseln och alltså behov via råmjölken....

Sturende factoren voor verhoging van vet- en eiwit gehalten in biologische geitenmelk
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Bont, Yoni; Magendans, Denise; van Nes, Hester; Oude Lenferink, Kirsten; Spit, Jan Jelle; Verkuijl, Marc.
Het vetgehalte in biologische geitenmelk ligt significant lager dan in de gangbare geitenmelk. Het verschil in eiwitgehalte tussen de biologische en gangbare geitenhouderij is minimaal. Na statistische vergelijking blijkt dat het vetgehalte in de biologische geitenmelk meer fluctuatie vertoont ten opzichte van eiwit. Door te kijken naar de aspecten voeding en genetica wordt getracht mogelijkheden te bieden ter verhoging van de vet- en eiwitgehalten in de melk.

Systemanalyse der Schaf- und Ziegenmilchproduktion in  Deutschland
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Manek, Gwendolyn; Simantke, Christel; Sporkmann, Katrin; Georg, Heiko; Kern, Andreas.
The production of sheep and goat milk in professional farming has become more important in the last decade. However, concrete underlying data are so far incomplete.  Thus the aim of the system analysis was the accumulation of data and knowledge about sheep and goat milk production in Germany. Production processes and factors on farms are to be recorded as well as information about players in the processing and marketing sector. Through research, questionnaires and interviews with farmers, processors,  commercial representatives and experts it was possible to generate a conclusive overview of this young sector. One outcome was a high proportion of organic farming  (65% of dairy goat, 67% of dairy sheep farms). While there is much optimism with regards to...

The use of feed blocks as supplementation for theupland hill flock: (1) Improving organic ewe productivity and performance
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: McLean, Barbara M L; Frost, David; Evans, D Eifion.
This report was presented at the UK Organic Research 2002 Conference of the Colloquium of Organic Researchers (COR). Maintaining ewe performance in winter poses particular problems for organic farming in the uplands where the availability of both grazing and home produced forage may be restricted. This trial evaluated approved non-organic feed blocks as dietary supplement for ewes grazing pastures between 300 and 550 m.

Ökologische Schafhaltung in Deutschland: Schwachstellen und Lösungsansätze
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Klumpp, Carolin.
Organic sheep production in Germany is characterised by diverse production systems. With the choice of breed, flock size and farming methods, sheep farming is feasible under a variety of conditions. The status-quo of the organic sheep sector was analysed based on German-wide surveys of organic sheep farms. This generated new information on current farm organisations and production processes. Weaknesses were identified in production of organic lamb and sheep milk. Conversion of conventional sheep husbandry to organic production methods will only become an interesting option if the problems identified are addressed and improved.

Milchziegen auf Biobetrieben in Deutschland  [Dairy goat keeping in organic farming in Germany]
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Nina, Hesse; Christian, Krutzinna; Gerold, Rahmann.
Die Geschichte der Milchziegenhaltung in Deutschland ist durch starke Gegensätze sowohl in der Einstellung zum Tier Ziege, als auch in der Entwicklung der Ziegenbestände geprägt. Während die Milchziege in früheren Zeiten allgemein geschätzt wurde, erhielt sie ca. ab dem 17. Jahrhundert unter anderem den Ruf als Waldschädling. Als „Kuh des kleinen (armen) Mannes“ werden nach dem ersten Weltkrieg rund 4,5 Mio. Milchziegen gehalten. Im Vergleich dazu hat die Milchziegenhaltung heute mit 125.000 Ziegen (Bundesstatistik 1998) nur geringe Bedeutung in Deutschland (zum Vergleich: Griechenland 5,9 Mio., Spanien 2,5 Mio., Italien 1,4 Mio., Frankreich 1,1 Mio., Portugal 0,8 Mio., Niederlande 0,13 Mio.; Zahlen für 1998).

Breeding goats for organic production in Germany
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
With only 120,000 females (year 2000), goat keeping is a niche activity in animal husbandry in Germany. Most of the goats (about 90%) are kept on part-time farms. The main reasons they are kept are as a hobby, for milk production and for landscape management; in many cases  it is a non-profit oriented activity. There are estimates (no official statistics exist) that 20,000 goats are milked and 10,000 are used in landscape management to avoid shrub succession on protected biotopes. In the year 2000 10% of the goats (12,000) were kept on organic farms but not all for economic reasons.    Because the dairy breeds in Germany (White and Brown German Alpine) are selected under intensive keeping conditions, breeding under the restrictions of organic farming is...

Alpine vegetation type affects composition of nutritionally important C18 fatty acids in tissues of lambs from different breeds
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Willems, H.; Kreuzer, M.; Leiber, F.
A total of 110 lambs of the breeds Engadine Sheep and Valaisian Black Nose Sheep were fattened on one lowland and three different alpine pasture types. The experiment was conducted in two consecutive years and lasted for 9 weeks of grazing in each year. Immediately afterwards, the lambs were slaughtered.  Perirenal adipose tissue and the Longissimus dorsi muscle were analysed for fatty acid composition. The lambs on the lowland pasture had the lowest proportions of linoleic and α-linolenic acid in the lipid fraction of these tissues. Additionally, there was a clear differentiation in these proportions when lambs grazed different alpine vegetation types. This was related to the content of phenolic compounds rather than the fatty acid contents of the swards,...

Organic Sheep and Goat Farming
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
Organic sheep and goat farming is on the rise in Germany and the EU. Many consumers see organic farms as an example of the "intact world" of farming and rural living. Agrienvironmental schemes support conversion from conventional towards organic farming. Only few know how difficult organic sheep and goat farming is from animal welfare, ecological and economic perspective. Newcomers particularly overestimate the production and marketing potential of the field, and underestimate the associated husbandry (e.g., health) and labour problems. It usually takes years to learn how to operate a sheep and goat farm and make it profitable. In addition to patience, good animal handling skills, and marketing ability, qualified professional and veterinary advice is...

Anfälligkeit für innere Parasiten bei Schaf und Ziege im Hinblick auf Rassen- und Herdenunterschiede
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Heckendorn, Felix.
Infektionen mit inneren Parasiten gehören weltweit zu den bedeutendsten Gesundheitsproblemen von Schafen und Ziegen. Insbesondere führt die Gruppe der Magen-Darm Strongyliden (MDS) zu beträchtlicher Morbidität und hohen ökonomischen Verlusten. Am Beispiel der englischen Schafzuchtindustrie wurde berechnet, dass die jährlichen durch MDS verursachten fi nanziellen Verluste über 103 Millionen Euro ausmachen (Nieuwhof und Bishop, 2005).  Seit den sechziger Jahren wurden MDS mit chemischsynthetischen Medikamenten (Anthelminthika) kontrolliert.  Die häufige und teilweise unsachgemässe Anwendung dieser Antiparasitika führte jedoch in den letzten Jahren zu erheblicher Resistenzbildung der Parasiten gegen verschiedene Anthelminthika-Wirkstoffgruppen beim Schaf...

Beitebruk og dyrehold er i stadig forandring, og dyretall og dyreslag endres. I et sambeite – hvor flere har beiterettigheter – kan en vurdering av beitekapasitet gi et bedre grunnlag for å planlegge beitesesongen, vurdere antall dyr som skal slippes i området og vurdere behovet for evt. tilleggsfôring. Dette var bakgrunnen for at NORSØK ble bedt om å vurdere beitekapasiteten i Grøvdalen sambeite øverst i Isfjorden i Rauma kommune. Beitekapasiteten sier noe om hvor mange dyr som bør beite innenfor et gitt område. Det er mange faktorer som spiller inn på husdyra sin beitebruk, og det er lite forskning gjort på området. Det er derfor viktig å understreke at det er stor usikkerhet knyttet til vurdering av beitekapasitet, og ingen eksakte svar kan gis. Det er...

Eutergesundheitsmonitoring als präventive Maßnahme zur  Verbesserung der Eutergesundheit bei Milchziegen
Provedor de dados: 21

Die subklinische Mastitis spielt bei Milchziegen eine ähnlich große Rolle wie bei Milchkühen. Kriterien zur Einschätzung des Eutergesundheitsstatus bei Milchziegen sind bisher nicht festgelegt.  Da die Standarddiagnostik (bei Milchkühen), die auf Zellzahl und bakteriologischem Befund beruht, bei Ziegen aufgrund mangelnder Eignung des Indikators Zellzahl nicht ohne Berücksichtigung sie beeinflussender Faktoren (z.B. Laktationsstadium, Brunst) angewendet werden kann, sollten im Projektverlauf verschiedene physiologische Indikatoren auf ihre Eignung geprüft werden. Dazu wurde eine Milchziegenherde (63 Tiere) über eine gesamte Laktation wöchentlich beprobt und die Milchproben umfassend analysiert auf: Zellzahl, bakteriologischen Befund, elektrische...

This study was designed to assess whether different grazing managements affect the appearance of organic volatile compounds (VOC) in lamb fat. Forty-two lambs were divided into four groups: 9 lambs were restricted in stall and fed concentrate (S group); 12 lambs grazed from 9 am to 5 pm (8 h group); 10 lambs grazed from 9 am to 1 pm (4hAM group) and 11 lambs grazed from 1 pm to 5 pm (4hPM group). After 72 days on feed the animals were slaughtered and the perirenal fat subjected to SPME-GC/MS analysis of VOC; the data were analyzed by stepwise discriminant analysis. The 6-methyl-2-heptanone and furanone, 2,5-dimethyl, 4-hydroxy-3(2H) allowed discrimination between the 4hAM and the 4hPM animals. These are the first results indicating that the time of the day...

Unterschiedliche Entwurmung von laktierenden Milchziegen:  Einfluss auf Milchleistung und Parasiteneierzahl im Kot
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Podstatzky, Leopold; Huber, R.
The effects of different deworming methods of grazing and lactating goats on fecal egg count (fec) and milk yield were examined. Fec was determined by a modified McMaster method with a sensitivity of 40 eggs per gram feces. At day 66 of the grazing period, the animals were allocated to two groups depending on the milk yield (low = MN, high = MH). Half of each group was dewormed. In the first year of the trial  animals with low as well as high fec were dewormed. The averages of fec in the groups (C-0 = no deworming, C-M = deworming) were not different at the time of  deworming. In the second year of the trial only animals with high fec were dewormed. The averages of the EPG in the groups (C-0 = no deworming, C-H = deworming) were different at the time of...

Landwirtschaft und Wildtiermanagement – Konflikte und Governanceansätze
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Köpke, Sören; Schleyer, Christian; Schütze, Nora; Thiel, Andreas.
In Deutschland kommt es zu Zielkonflikten zwischen Wildtiermanagement und Landwirtschaft, die sich an den Beispielen Wolf und Schwarzwild festmachen lassen. Die Rückkehr des Wolfes in die deutsche Landschaft wird aus Gesichtspunkten des Naturschutzes begrüßt, führt aber bei Weidehaltern zu erheblichen Verunsicherungen. Aus Gründen des Artenschutzes genießt der Wolf einen hohen Schutzstatus. Das Wildschwein hingegen wird intensiv bejagt, es wird dennoch deutlich, dass das Management dieser Art erhebliche Schwierigkeiten mit sich bringt. Die große Wildschweinpopulation führt zu Schäden an Feldpflanzen und nährt die Gefahr der Verbreitung von Seuchen.  In dem Workshop soll zunächst mit der Methode Rollenspiel die Problematik aufgezeigt und verschiedene...

Milchschafhaltung im ökologischen Landbau [Dairy sheep in Organic farms]
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Rahmann, Gerold.
Die Milchschafhaltung ist in Deutschland ein kleine aber feine Nische der Landwirtschaft. Von den rund 100.000 Milchschafen in Deutschland werden heute rund 10.000 gemolken, rund die Hälfte davon im ökologischen Landbau. Damit ist ihre Bedeutung im Vergleich zur Fleischschafhaltung mit insgesamt 2,4 Mio. Schafen in Deutschland und 101.000 (4,2%) im ökologischen Landbau relativ gering.   Wie die Schafhaltung allgemein hat auch die Milchschafhaltung im ökologischen Landbau in den letzten Jahrzehnten aber an Bedeutung gewonnen. Sie ist anzutreffen bei solchen Menschen, die eine gesondere Passion zu dieser Schafrasse haben. Des weiteren ist die Milchschafhaltung durch Betriebe gekennzeichnet, die eher eine geringe Kapital- und Bodenausstattung aufweisen, dafür...

The sustainable development of grassland-livestock systems on the Tibetan plateau: problems, strategies and prospects
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Shang, Z.H.; Gibb, M.J.; Leiber, F.; Ismail, M.; Ding, L.M.; Guo, X.S.; Long, R.J.
The Tibetan plateau is the source of most of the major rivers of Asia and has a huge impact on the livelihoods of the population, who have for centuries engaged in traditional herding practices. Sustainable management of the plateau is of critical importance not only for maintaining livelihoods but also because of its vital ecological function. The major problem of sustainable development in these grassland-livestock systems is the conflict between forage and livestock production. Despite considerable investment of manpower, material resources and capital over many years, attempts to resolve the problem have not been successful. The magnitude of conflict between forage and livestock is addressed by presenting 19 resolution strategies based on numerous...

Differences in receptivity to gastrointestinal infections with  nematodes in dairy ewes: Influence of age and of the  level of milk production
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: H., Hoste; A.C., Rulie; F., Prevot; J.P., Bergeaud; C., Grisez; F., De La Farge; P., Jacquiet; P., Dorchies.
Resistance to anthelmintics in populations of gastrointestinal nematodes is a major concern in small ruminants. One solution  to limit the spread of anthelmintic resistance is to apply treatments selectively by targeting the most susceptible animals within  a flock. In dairy goats, previous studies have shown that, within a flock, goats in first lactation and those with high level of milk  production were highly receptive to nematode infections. These results provided the rationale for targeted treatments. In dairy  ewes, such epidemiological information on possible factors modulating the susceptibility to parasitism were still lacking. The  objective of the current study was therefore to examine differences in the level of parasite infection and in the...

Autores: Znaïdi, Akram.
All animal livestock of  the South Mediterranean Countries suffer from climatic condition of mild region characterised by moist winter and hot dry summer. Crop resources in the majority of the countries cannot cover the animal need, so farmer has two solutions feeding his flock under than necessary with effects on yield of production or adding in the animal ration a concentrate with high energy value but this is costly. Also the majority of small ruminants breeds in Mediterranean countries are local breeds which are well adapted to the local conditions but with low level of production .  For this reasons organic animal production appears the most suited solution to solve these problems because organic agriculture with its specific techniques uses less...

Anthelmintic effect and intake dynamics of oak (quercus spp.) and walnut (juglans regia) foliage in goats
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Heckendorn, F.; Lèbre, A.; Destailleur, V.; Bouy, M.; Spiegler, V.; Lehmann, S.; Hensel, A.
Oak and Walnut are both of ethnoveterinary importance, especially for anthelmintic treatment of ruminants [1,2]. H2O and EtOH-water (1:1) extracts of oak and walnut foliage were used for phytochemical profiling and for in vitro assays with Caenorhabditis elegans and gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). Oak extracts contained mainly tannins, walnut extracts were dominated by flavonoids. Oak EtOH extract caused significant lethal effects in adult C. elegans (LC50 1.5 mg/mL); motility of GIN L3 larvae was reduced by the EtOH extract but at substantially higher concentrations. Egg hatching was inhibited by both, the oak H2O and EtOH extract. In vivo: 42 lactating Alpine goats carrying natural GIN infections were allocated to 3 feeding groups: oak, walnut and...

Does organic livestock husbandry uses less energy and produces less greenhouse gas than conventional husbandry? Analysis in   lactating sheep farms
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Dakpo, Hervé; LAIGNEL, G; Roulenc, M.; BENOIT, M.
We have undertaken in this work an evaluation of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the Non-Renewable Energy (NRE) consumption on a sample of 1250 farms-years, operating in sheep meat production, in either organic (OA) or conventional (CA) agriculture, over the period 1987 to 2012, based on the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method. There was no significant difference for NRE consumption (79.6 MJ in OA and 79.7 MJ in CA, per kg of carcass); indeed the gains in OA thanks to a lower use of chemical fertilizers and purchase of lesser concentrates feed were offset by the higher level of mechanization (here fuels and equipment). For GHG emissions, we found a significant difference of 5% beneficial to organic production systems (31.1 vs. 32.7 kg CO2 eq/kg...

Assessing a treatment on the basis of an individual or a group. An example: the homeopathic treatment of digestive-tract strongyles in sheep
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: TABEL, J.; SAUVE, C.; CORTET, J.; TOURNADRE, H.; THOMAS, Y.; CABARET, J.
Homeopathic treatments, widely used in organic farming, remain unevaluated. Assessment is difficult since the individuals that respond to treatment are not identified, although it is central to the concept of homeopathic treatment. Classifying lambs into those to be treated (since they have high parasitic infection rate or poor production performances) or that should remain untreated (in other words, even when treated, they will not benefit from treatment) is not simple. The identification of lambs to be treated can be based on parasitological examinations (eggs per gram of faeces), clinical (anaemia or diarrhoea)or production-related (weight gain) results. The classification of lambs was a posteriori and based on dendrograms using UPGMA (unweighted...

Renewed interest for silvopastoral systems in Europe – an inventory of the feeding value of fodder trees
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Luske, B.; van Eekeren, N.
With the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy of the EU (CAP) there is a renewed attention for implementation of agroforestry and silvopastoral systems. The multifunctional use of trees for energy production, nutrient cycling, carbon storage, biodiversity, landscape and -last but not least- fodder could make trees a third crop next to grass and maize on dairy farms. To decide which trees to use for planting, it is important to have also insight into the feeding value of the different tree leave species. Therefore a database has been created on the basis of available literature on feeding values of leaves and twigs. Compared to grass, the in-vitro Organic Matter Digestibility of tree leaves is relatively low. However, crude protein and mineral levels of...

Consequences of the regular distribution of sainfoin hay on  gastrointestinal parasitism with nematodes and on  milk production in a dairy goat flock
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: H., Hoste; L., Gaillard; Y., Le Frileux.
The objectives of the current study were to examine the potential effects of distribution of sainfoin hay on nematode parasitism  in a producing herd and to measure the consequences on milk production. The survey was performed in an experimental herd  of 120-dairy-goat farm during a whole 9-month grazing season. Every month, 60 goats received indoors on average 1.36 kg of  sainfoin hay for 10 days whereas the 60 remaining goats were used as controls, thus receiving the same amount of lucerne hay at  the same time. The nutritional values of both hays were comparable except that concentrations of condensed tannins was higher  in sainfoin than in lucerne hay, i.e. 2.52% versus 0.7% of diet DM. Intakes of the two types of hay were recorded along with  each...

Organic farming in the uplands – appraisal of a development programme
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Frost, David.
There is a widespread assumption that conversion of livestock production systems in the uplands can be achieved with minimal change to existing hill farming practices and yet still deliver environmental and financial benefits. This assumption needs to be examined because conversion of upland farm enterprises poses particular issues for organic farming, Frost (1999). The certifying bodies acknowledge that some of these issues are not adequately covered by the current standards for organic agriculture. The development of a hill farming organic system at Pwllpeiran was established to provide evidence for such an appraisal, Powell (1999).    Appraisal of the project indicates that organic beef and sheep production can be a viable option in the uplands. Long...

Organic sheep husbandry in Germany - how to tap its full potential
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Klumpp, Carolin; Häring, Anna Maria.
Organic sheep production in Germany is characterised by diverse production systems. With the choice of breed, flock size and farming methods, sheep farming is feasible under a variety of conditions. The status-quo of the organic sheep sector was analysed based on German-wide surveys of organic sheep farms. This generated new information on current farm organisations and production processes. Weaknesses were identified in production and marketing of organic lamb and sheep milk. A sustainable development of organic sheep husbandry in Germany is only possible if the problems identified are addressed and improved.

Improved welfare in sheep production.Preventive measures, disease resistance and robustness related to tick-borne fever in sheep
Provedor de dados: 21
The greatest welfare challenges for sheep during grazing are tick-borne fever (TBF), blow-flies, alveld and predators. Production losses on tick infested pastures are substantial, and it is expected that more than 300 000 lambs/sheep are affected by TBF. In sustainable farming, particularly organic farming, the focus on solving these challenges should be on preventive measures. The dependence on drugs implies a risk for developing resistance. It is therefore of general interest to use preventive methods. However, few efficient preventive measures against tick infection and TBF are available. Thus, there is a need for alternative strategies. The focus of the project will be on: Indirect losses The indirect loss caused by TBF is impaired welfare, growth...

Autores: Escribano, A.J.; Gaspar, P.; Escribano, M.; Mesias, F.J.; Pulido, F.
INTRODUCTION: The Spanish goat sector's crisis has led to the abandonment of a large number of farms. At present, sector's expectations are reduced, which threatens farms' permanence. This in turn means a loss of agricultural biodiversity, reduced economic activity and loss of rural population. In this context, it is necessary to implement strategies to ensure farms' continuity . In this sense, the conversion to the organic model is proposed in the farms analyzed.   METHODOLOGY: To study the possibility and feasibility of such conversion an analysis of their structure (technical and economic characteristics), an assessment of farms' sustainability (based on social, economic and environmental parameters) has been carried out. For this purpose, the MESMIS...

Einschätzung des Körpergewichtes bei Milchziegen
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Koopmann, Regine; Biedermann, Insa.
Die an der Rasse Bunte Deutsche Edelziege erhobenen Daten scheinen daraufhin zuweisen, dass für nichttragende oder frisch gedeckte Ziegen ein Rückschluss vom gemessenem Brustumfang auf das Körpergewicht zulässig ist. Die Regressionsgleichung lautet Körpergewicht (kg) = Maßbandwert (cm) x 1,445 - 70,24 mit R² = 0,71. Die Genauigkeit ist ausreichend für die Festlegung der Menge von Futterzusätzen oder Medikamenten. Die Regressionsgleichung sollte an großen Ziegenherden validiert oder korrigiert werden. Für das gezielte, selektive Entwurmen scheint die Methode nicht genau genug zu sein. Weitere Untersuchungen wären sehr wünschenswert. Ein „Einfach-BCS“ hat sich als ungeeignet für die Abschätzung des Körpergewichts erwiesen.

Bedingt durch die Einführung der elektronischen Tierkennzeichnung wurde eine Untersuchung mit vier verschiedenen Ohrmarken (Caisley, Hauptner Herberholz, Babyohrmarke von Hauptner Herberholz, Schlaufenohrmarke Shearwell) von Ende Januar bis November 2010 mit 115 Ziegenlämmern durchgeführt. Die o.g. Ohrmarken wurden zeitnah nach der Geburt eingezogen. In einer Variante wurden auch Ohrmarken (Caisley und Hauptner Herberholz) im Alter von neun Monaten appliziert.

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...

Autores: Maurer, Veronika; Heckendorn, Felix.
Vor kurzem hat das grosse Forschungsprojekt «LowInput-Breeds» zur europäischen «LowInput»- und Biotierhaltung begonnen. Mit diesem Artikel möchten wir zeigen, welche Arbeiten mit Schafen in diesem Projekt geplant sind und wie Forschungsgruppen aus der Schweiz im internationalen Umfeld arbeiten. Die 21 beteiligten Partner aus Europa und Übersee haben sich zum Ziel gesetzt, mit Hilfe von Management- und Zuchtstrategien die Tiergesundheit und die Lebensmittelqualität bei den wichtigsten Nutztierarten zu verbessern. Das Projekt hat ein Gesamtbudget von 9 Millionen Euro. Es läuft bis 2014 und wird vom 7. Forschungsrahmenprogramm der Europäischen Kommission mitfinanziert.

Entwicklungspotenziale der ökologischen Schafhaltung in Deutschland
Provedor de dados: 21
Autores: Klumpp, Carolin; Häring, Anna Maria.
Die aktuelle Agrarpolitik der Bundesregierung verfolgt das Ziel, den Anteil der ökologisch bewirtschafteten Fläche bis 2010 von derzeit 3,7% auf 20% zu erhöhen. In wieweit die Schafhaltung zu einer Ausdehnung des ökologischen Landbaus in Deutschland beitragen kann, wird anhand einer Status-Quo-Analyse ermittelt. Im Rahmen dieses Beitrags werden aktuelle Probleme aufgegriffen und mögliche Barrieren einer Ausdehnung der ökologischen Schafhaltung diskutiert.
