    Organic ruminant health

    Dairy goat farming has increased enormously in recent years. The new EU organic regulation requires goats to be kept on pasture, which poses major challenges for many farm managers.

    Using 10-12 dairy goat farms to be examined, this project aims to obtain data regarding endoparasite contamination in general, as well as seasonal development. In addition, feeding management, pasture management and deworming management are surveyed.
    The data obtained should form the basis for further projects regarding strategic feeding of tannin-containing plants in dairy goat farming.
