Events

This event will focus on the study of the current management of the Asturian and Galician milk production system, considering the joint analysis of the farm and the value chain, which will allow the selection of the best practices associated with the different types of farms. Discussion and sharing of information on the weaknesses, threats, strengths and opportunities of livestock farms. Discussion and sharing of the most relevant production, environmental and social indicators. About the CLIMALACT Task Force The CLIMALACT project aims to identify and standardise farm/landscape/value chain management practices associated with the “CLIMALACT” brand and to provide, through co-creative processes (multi-actor methodologies), idiotypes of dairy agri-food systems in Asturias and Galicia based on the calculation of simple sustainability and climate neutrality indicators in order to achieve transparency in farm and value chain management and continuous improvement of sustainability.

This 21st edition brings two important new features. Firstly, the meeting will be held at a new venue, the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Zaragoza. Secondly, a new section dedicated to precision livestock farming is being incorporated, which is added to the usual ones (genetics, nutrition/feeding, livestock systems/economics and management, reproduction, animal health and welfare and product quality).
