  • The efforts for sustainable animal production in Slovenia = Prizadevanja za sonaravno živinorejo v Sloveniji
    Osterc, Jože
    The Slovenians have been aware of environment protection. Consumers require sustainable agriculture and high quality agricultural products. Animal production is the most important agricultural branch ... in Slovenia. The article explains the term and importance of sustainable animal production. Sustainable cattle and sheep grazing have been in progress for 20 years. Financial supports were introduced for production of suckler cows, sheep, goats and mares in 1995, for which the interest is significant. In three years time the number of animals whose production is financially supported has doubled. In 1997 nearly 50 % of cows that were not included in milk production(17 % of all cows) were supported, and more than 50 % of breeding goats and sheep too. Financial supports depend on the quality of farm lands and amounted to 22,000 Sit on average per suckler cow, 2,200 Sit per breeding sheep or goat and 8,200 Sit per mare in 1997.
