Optimization of husbandry and feeding in organic sow husbandry to improve piglet health - Landwirtschaftskammer Nordrhein-Westfalen (Project)
The aim of the project is to improve the health of suckling and rearing piglets under organic husbandry conditions by adapting housing and feeding and to demonstrate ways of reducing piglet mortality. In addition to adapted housing and feeding, the influence of feeding on the microbial population in the piglets' intestines will be evaluated. For this purpose, microbiome examinations and...

Free run design in organic fattening pig husbandry - usage, elimination behaviour and animal health (Project)
A key component in organic fattening pig husbandry is access to an outdoor run, which offers the animals the opportunity to perform natural behaviours and create different functional areas. As part of the project 'Free run design in organic fattening pig husbandry - usage, elimination behaviour and animal health - AuMaNET', the use of outdoor runs and the elimination behaviour of fattening pigs...

Healthy (organic) pigs in Germany - Bioland Beratung GmbH (Project)
The project 'Healthy (organic) pigs in Germany' (GeSchwInD) aims to further develop organic pig farming in Germany. As part of the project, health problems in organic pig herds are to be addressed. In addition to the examination of pigs, the focus of the activities is particularly on humans and their influence on animal health. In a process moderated by the advisory service, the exchange of...

Disinfection of outdoor areas for infection and parasite control in organic pig farming (Project)
The introduction and persistence of infectious agents and, in particular, of parasite persistent stages on outdoor areas and pastures in organic pig farming, as in organic livestock farming as a whole, is one of the major, unfortunately unresolved challenges of organic livestock farming. While infection cycles in free-range farming can take place in a quasi-typical ideal way, vaccines against...

IDENTIFICATION OF RISK FACTORS AND ESTABLISHMENT OF BIOINDICATORS FOR PIGLET MORTALITY UNDER ORGANIC HUSBANDRY CONDITIONS IN DIFFERENT PIG GENOTYPES (Project)
In BioFeSt, approaches for reducing piglet losses in organic farms are being developed by analyzing relationships between biomarkers for allostatic load, i.e. the cumulative effects of chronic stress on piglet mortality, and identifying risk factors. To this end, biomarkers (cortisol, cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, triglycerides, creatinine and glucose) are...

Strategies for the development of a breeding program under organic conditions for conventional pig breeding lines - Universität Göttingen (Project)
Over the last 20 years, the demand for organically produced food in Germany has risen continuously. In pig farming, the proportion of organically reared animals is comparatively low. In addition to personal conviction, economic motives are the main factor motivating pig producers to transform their farms to an organic production. In addition to other factors (e.g. husbandry techniques), the...
