Successful conference for dairy farmers about new “calf by the cow” concept

January 14, 2021

Great news ! All of our efforts over the past 6 years at stimulating a real change within the dairy industry are starting to pay off. We really wanted the dairy industry to take more responsibility and show concern for the fate and welfare of the unwanted calves born on dairy farms !

Visit of Zonvarken pig farm in De Heurne, NL

December 24, 2020

Today we visited the new pig barn built for the new concept "Zonvarkens" (sun pigs). This concept was developed by a group of pig farmers. The idea is to raise pigs whereby they have a good quality of life and can express their natural behaviour. They have room to move, access to the outdoors and fresh air, bedding to build nests and forage in, the sows will have a large … [Read more...] about Visit of Zonvarken pig farm in De Heurne, NL

Visit to goat farm Ter Veen where kids stay with their mothers

This is unusual because on most dairy goat farms the kids are taken away from the mother after birth, to be kept by themselves, in a plastic container and are fed colostrum through a … [Read more...] about Visit to goat farm Ter Veen where kids stay with their mothers

This week Eyes on Animals spent 5 days at a dairy farm in northern Germany that keeps the calves for at least 3 months with their mothers in the herd. It is one of 5 dairy farms in between Hamburg and Flensburg that produces milk for a new label called ElternZeit, which means “ Parent Time”.

Visit to farm ‘t Geertje

June 22, 2020

Today Eyes on Animals visited the organic farm 't Geertje in Zoeterwoude (The Netherlands). At 't Geertje a variety of animals is kept on a small scale: goats, cattle, chickens, pigs and more. Their meat, eggs and dairy are primarily sold in their own farm shop. A farm like 't Geertje, where the animals can walk around on straw and go outside, is not common. What makes … [Read more...] about Visit to farm ‘t Geertje

Grotere stallen ten koste van kleinere boeren. Als beleid niet verandert, blijven boeren in sneltempo verdwijnen. https://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2022/06/29/aantal-megastallen-in-nederland-afgelopen-vijf-jaar-met-25-procent-toegenomen-a4135006
