Enhancing Animal Welfare and Farmer Income Through Strategic Animal - Some Case Studies

Klappentext

Little attention has been paid to understand the linkages between animal nutrition and animal welfare. Farmers find it difficult to adopt practices that promote animal welfare without having sound information on the impact of such practices on animal productivity and their income. This "AGA Paper" presents a series of case studies to document existing practices that enhance animal welfare as well as farmers incomes. The information it contains will encourage researchers and agencies working in the area of animal welfare to initiate studies to capture the impact of any intervention on farmers incomes an area that has been neglected to date. It is also envisaged that these studies could pave the way for developing guidelines and policy options to promote sustainable animal feeding that enhances animal welfare, animal productivity, animal product quality and profitability."
