AIAB technical day!
On June 21st in Talmassons (UD) in coincidence with an NPG meeting on poultry production systems, the PPILOW results were presented while the discussion focused on the needs to conciliate biosecurity measures and animal welfare practices in organic and low-input outdoor production systems. Farmers reported a limited availability of slow-growing breeds and dual-purpose genotypes, particularly for small organic flocks, outlining the need of collaboration with breeders. After the meeting, a visit to a local organic farm with slaughterhouse and direct sales was led by AIAB FVG allowing further discussion and insights.
