International recommendations for cattle husbandry developed

The international CIGR working group “Cattle Housing”, which consists of barn construction experts from 10 European countries and North America, has published a new report on cattle farming.

Dr. Elfriede Ofner-Schröck (Department of Animal Husbandry and Housing Technology) contributed to this report as the Austrian representative. In numerous workshops, some of which took place at the HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein, scientific findings and practical experience from various countries were combined. The report, "The Design of Dairy Cow and Replacement Heifer Housing," can be found here.
