Organic farming leads the way in sustainability and animal welfare and is ready to improve even more. Four research projects, OK-Net EcoFeed, PPILOW, Freebirdsand POWER, are ready to contribute to this. They will share the latest solutions such as ration-planning tools, sustainable and regional feed sources for pigs and poultry, welfare self-assessment tools and the Organic Farm Knowledge platform. Several farmers will testify on their efforts to improve animal welfare. Finally, we will host a policy debate with policy makers, and organic farming and animal welfare associations.
