  • On farm monitoring of animal welfare and environmental impact as a basis for quality assurance programmes = Spremljanje počutja živali na kmetiji in vplivov na okolje kot osnova programov zagotavljanja kakovosti
    Von Borell, Eberhard ; Mitloehner, Frank M.
    The welfare, health and management of farm animals as well as environmental concerns are relevant issues that impact the success of the producer in the market and need to be considered to increase ... public and consumer acceptance. Criteria for the assessment of housing and management systems have been proposed by several groups and minimal standards for animal welfare, hygiene and environmental stewardship are already implemented in the legislation of most European countries. Issues of animal welfare, health and environmental care are often dealt with separately. As it can be foreseen that housing and management conditions will be increasingly regulated in future, a documentation and certification process that safeguards all requirements is needed. Concepts for the assessment of animal housing and management according to welfare and environmental criteria are proposed as part of a quality assurance scheme according to international standards. Based on these concepts, critical control points (CCP) and critical management points (CMP) have been developed for the categories health, behaviour, management and environmental impact. These criteria were first established to be used primarily by the farmer as an internal on-farm assessment scheme. However, they can also serve as quality assurance criteria used by government agencies, consumer organisations and commodity groups that have an interest to evaluate, monitor and licence housing and management systems. The following paper reviews quality assurance issues using examples from existing concepts in Germany (Pig Housing and Management Assessment according to Welfare and Environmental Criteria) and the United States (California Dairy Quality Assurance Program).
