The aim of this conference session is to explore current initiatives in the development and use of welfare indicators and assessment schemes for dairy cattle. Presentations from industry leaders will also show how welfare indicators are being incorporated into schemes and explore the opportunities and challenges for harmonisation and integration of welfare indicators.
About 15 presentations are programmed, arranged in an open session and in a technical session focussed on "Harmonisation of animal based welfare indicators. Future needs, challenges and perspectives"
Our colleague Clément Grelet (CRAW) will present the results of the stress experiment during this meeting. Don't forget to register following this link: https://www.registrationicar2021.nl/ (inscription to the workshop is 50€).
