Progress with competence and specialist knowledge for animal well-being, environmentally friendly and sustainable livestock farming

Abstract

The project pursues the strategic goal of sustainably strengthening animal owners in Germany and supporting them in prioritising animal and environmental protection as well as quality in production and market orientation. With the help of the animal welfare competence centres („Tierwohlkompetenzzentren“ TWZ) pig, poultry and cattle, available knowledge is bundled, prepared according to target groups and offered according to demand. The latest research results and results from innovation promotion, as well as experience from theme-related projects (e.g. model and demonstration projects) will be included. The aim is to bundle subject-specific knowledge, organise the exchange of experience between practitioners, scientists, consultants and other groups and thus enable and promote knowledge networking within the sector. Experience and recommendations for action are disseminated via various communication channels and through various knowledge transfer events.
