New animalwelfare scoring system could enable better-informed food and farming choices Cambridge_Uni RSocPublishing
This means that animal welfare can now, for the first time, be properly considered alongside other impacts of farming to help identify which farming systems are best., at a time when demand for meat is rising globally and the way animals are farmed is changing—with concerns about the welfare of intensive and indoor systems.
Farms producing"woodland" labeled pork products scored best for pig welfare, followed by"organic," then"We have shown that it's possible to reliably assess animal welfare on farms. This means decisions about which types of farm are better or worse for animal welfare can be based on proper calculations, rather than assumptions—as is currently the case," said Dr.
The new system assesses the quality of an animal's life through a wide-ranging set of welfare measurements, reflecting a range of concerns about welfare. The results can be integrated into a single score to enable comparison across farms. Harriet Bartlett loves working with pigs, but says she is sometimes outsmarted by them.
