| Reducing the amount of human-edible feed in livestock diets is a key factor towards more sustainable livestock systems. Based on results from a conventional wholesystem study comparing performance, efficiency, land productivity, and profitability of an indoor-feeding system (SH) and a pasture-based dairy production system (VW) in lowlands of Central Switzerland, the net contribution of these systems to human food protein and energy supply was analysed. Depending on the presumed human-edible fraction, the system VW produced between 6.6 and 11.2 times more human-edible protein and 3.5 to 6.6 times more human-edible energy via animal products than the animals consumed via feeds. For the group SH, these factors were clearly lower but still in a positive range... |

| In a whole-system study in lowland of Central Switzerland from 2007 - 2010 compared the performance, efficiency, land productivity and profitability of indoor-feeding (SH) dairy production with that of pasture-based feeding (VW) dairy production. In the present study these experimental results were economically evaluated under Austrian market und production conditions. Therefore conventional and organic model farms were created and analyzed using full cost accounting. In comparison to the barn feeding strategy a higher farm income, income per labor unit were achieved with the pasture-based feeding strategy. These economic differences were more pronounced under organic than conventional conditions. |
