V rejah krav molznic se soočamo s številnimi problemi in izzivi, povezanimi z zagotavljanjem dobrega počutja živali. Predpogoj za spremembe in napredek je učinkovit sistem ocenjevanja. Razviti so bili različni protokoli, a imajo vsi pomanjkljivosti, ki ovirajo njihovo širšo uporabo v praksi. V naši raziskavi smo za ocenjevanje dobrega počutja krav molznic v prosti reji uporabili protokol Welfare Monitor, ki je poenostavljena in hitrejša različica protokola Welfare Quality®, pri katerem so nekatere meritve na živalih zamenjane z meritvami virov, hleva in menedžmenta. Protokol Welfare Monitor zajema opazovalna področja krmljenja, bivalnih pogojev, zdravstvenega stanja in obnašanja. Vsako področje je razdeljeno na 12 meril, ki jih preverimo z meritvami in ocenami v hlevu in na živalih. Opisan postopek smo izvedli na desetih kmetijah s prosto rejo krav molznic različnih velikosti, in sicer 16–90 krav molznic. Meritve in ocene, ki smo jih pridobili na kmetijah, cca. 30 meritev/ocen, smo uporabili za izračun ocen meril in te za izračun ocen opazovalnih področij, na osnovi katerih smo kmetijo uvrstili v eno izmed kategorij primernosti reje, in sicer neuvrščeno, sprejemljivo, izboljšano ali odlično. Čeprav so se kmetije glede ocen meril in opazovanih področij med seboj precej razlikovale, jih je bilo devet uvrščenih v kategorijo izboljšano, ena pa v kategorijo sprejemljivo. Rezultati, dobljeni v slovenskih rejah krav molznic, so spodbudni, a hkrati kažejo, da obstajajo številne možnosti za izboljšanje rejskih pogojev, kar pa se od reje do reje razlikuje. Na osnovi rezultatov bi bilo potrebno v rejah izvesti prilagoditve in spremembe in čez čas ponovno preveriti stanje dobrega počutja krav molznic

Animal welfare assessments on dairy cow farms |
Sekundarni povzetek: |
In dairy cows, there are many problems and challenges related to animal welfare. A prerequisite for changes and progress is an effective evaluation system. Different protocols have been developed in the past, but all of them have shortcomings that hinder their wider use in the practice. In the present research, Welfare Monitor protocol was applied to assess the welfare of free-stall dairy cows. The Welfare Monitor protocol is a simplified and faster version of the Welfare Quality® protocol, as some animal-based measurements are replaced by resource-, pen- and management-based measurements. It covers the principles of feeding, housing, health and behaviour. Each principle is divided into 12 criteria, which are verified by measures on the farm. The described procedure was carried out on 10 farms with free-stall rearing of dairy herd of various sizes (16-90 dairy cows). Measures obtained on the farms (approx. 30) were used to calculate criteria scores, which were used to calculate principles score, based on which the farms obtained overall assessment (not classified, acceptable, enhanced, excellent). Although the farms differed considerably in criteria and principle scores, nine of them were classified as enhanced and one as acceptable. The results obtained for dairy farms in Slovenia are encouraging. However, there are still many possibilities for improvement of breeding conditions, which differ from farm to farm. It would be advisable to make adjustments and changes on the farms based on the obtained results, and over time to re-check the animal welfare state of the dairy cows |
