Enhancing Pig Welfare Through Environmental Enrichment
Discover how organic farming practices can naturally support better pig welfare in our latest video from the mEATquality project.
In organic husbandry, pigs are encouraged to express their natural behaviors - rooting, grazing, and wallowing - which are essential for their well-being. Environmental enrichment isn’t just a recommendation; it’s a requirement under organic standards.
This video highlights practical and cost-effective enrichment strategies, from outdoor pens to agroforestry systems, showing how farmers can meet pigs’ needs while maintaining productivity and sustainability.
