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... |

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... |

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... |

Das Ziel dieser Studie war es, die Wirkung der Fütterung effektiven Mikroorganismen (EM) bei Schafen auf klinische, hämatologische und parasitologische Parameter zu untersuchen. 24 Schafe wurden nach dem Zufallsprinzip in drei Gruppen eingeteilt. Eine Gruppe diente als Kontrolle, die beiden anderen Gruppen erhielten EM in zwei unterschiedlichen Konzentrationen täglich per os verabreicht. Zu Beginn und nach 4 und 8 Wochen wurden parasitologische (EPG) hämatologische und klinische Untersuchungen durchgeführt. Es konnten keine statistisch Unterschiede zwischen den Gruppen nachgewiesen werden. Die Zufütterung von EM an Schafe über einen Zeitraum von 4 Wochen zeigte keine negativen Auswirkungen auf die Gesundheit, es ist aber auch mit keiner Beeinflussung des... |

Im Projekt wird ein Konzept zur Erzeugung von Öko-Ziegenlammfleisch entwickelt. Konkret werden folgende Fragen beantwortet: Welche Schlachtkörperqualitäten gibt es bei zwei Genotypen und Geschlechtern von Ziegenlämmern in extensiver oder Öko-Standard Mast? Wie rechnet sich die Ziegenlämmermast in unterschiedlichen Haltungsvarianten und Betriebssystemen in der Praxis? Wie können die Anforderungen des Großhandels für Schlachtziegenlämmer erfüllt werden? In Mastversuchen wird herausgearbeitet, welche Qualitäten (Schlachtkörper, Fleischqualität) aus haltungstechnischer Sicht kosten- und arbeitseffizient sind. Kreuzungslämmer aus BDE x Bure werden mit reinen Milchziegenlämmern (BDE) verglichen. In einer betriebswirtschaftlichen Bewertung werden die... |

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>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... |

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... |

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... |

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... |

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.... |

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 . |

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... |

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... |

Obwohl die Haltung von Kleinwiederkäuern in den letzten Jahren immer mehr an Bedeutung gewonnen hat, gibt es bisher, insbesondere im Bereich der Milchgewinnung, nur wenige arbeitswirtschaftliche Kennzahlen für die Haltung von Schafen und Ziegen und deren Aufzucht. Insbesondere Schafmilch ist schon seit einiger Zeit als wichtige Alternative zu Kuhmilch bekannt. Es ist daher wichtig im Bereich der Kleinwiederkäuer Verfahrensdaten und arbeitswirtschaftliche Kennzahlen zur Verfügung stellen zu können. Das Ziel der vorgesehenen Untersuchung liegt in der Erfassung, Aufbereitung, Auswertung und Bereitstellung von arbeitswirtschaftlichen Kennzahlen sowie der Beschreibung zeitgemässer Produktionsverfahren im Bereich der Kleinwiederkäuerhaltung. Dabei werden... |
