Organic production is perceived by consumers as being superior in animal welfare and sustainability and the demand for organic pork products is slowly increasing. Within the past ten years a variety of husbandry and management systems have been developed across the EU, ranging from farms with pigs outdoors all year round using local breeds to farms with housed pigs having concrete outside runs and using conventional breeds (CorePIG, Rousing et al, 2011). So far, mainly clinical parameters have been used to describe the health situation on organic pig farms, identifying some key problems, such as weaning diarrhoea and piglet mortality. Organic pig production is - amongst others - characterised through a holistic approach based on the EU Regulation (EC) No... |

While the need for training on-farm assessors in clinical animal assessment has been widely recognised, assessment of husbandry resources is still often regarded as self-explanatory. Within the scope of the international project ProPIG, 7 observers from seven countries were trained by an experienced observer (gold standard) to assess 15 clinical and 11 resource parameters in organic pigs in eight countries. The initial plan was to train and test observers before farm visit 1 and then again after one year before farm visit 2. Both trainings were repeated with all observers due to unsatisfactory agreement, resulting in T1a+b and one year later T2a+b. Agreement with the gold standard was calculated as exact agreement for categorical parameters (e.g. drinker... |

Challenges and opportunities of on farm research are discussed and it is concluded, that transdisciplinary on-farm research requires from all involved parties: Understanding and willingness to learn from each other Acceptance, that own field of research is only a part of the whole “on farm picture” Sound scientific methods as well as technical tools for support (e.g. tablet PCs) Move from being/expecting “experts” towards “facilitation" |

ProPIG ist ein europäisches Bioschweine-Forschungsprojekt im Rahmen des CORE Organic II Programmes. Die Studie wird von 2011-2014 in acht europäischen Ländern auf insgesamt 75 Bioschweinebetrieben (je 3 Betriebsbesuche) durchgeführt, und wird vom Department für Nachhaltige Agrarsysteme koordiniert. In den letzten Jahren haben sich Wissenschaftler intensiv mit der Thematik „Nachhaltigkeit in der Landwirtschaft“ und dem Einfluss der Landwirtschaft auf den Klimawandel beschäftigt. Die Haltung von Nutztieren ist je nach Produktionssystem (z.B. Ökologisch, Konventionell, Freilandhaltung) mit unterschiedlichen Umweltauswirkungen (z.B. Treibhausgasemissionen) verbunden. Bislang wurden die Umweltauswirkungen der verschiedenen Haltungssysteme von Bioschweinen... |
