This Task Force aims to study current alternatives for obtaining local raw materials for animal feed.
A ration will be formulated that incorporates these raw materials more efficiently for feeding organic chickens, and the production rates obtained will be analyzed in comparison with other breeding systems and feed sources.
Animals, living in much less stressful conditions and respecting their biological cycles of sleep and wakefulness, are much less likely to get sick, and if they do, natural treatments such as homeopathy are preferred.
Well-informed consumers value organic foods positively because they truly produce healthier products of much higher quality. Organic foods restore the true aroma and flavor of food and beverages.
The increase in organically grown cereal and legume crops will allow for a better balance between agriculture and livestock farming, enable the mobilization of unused agricultural land, thereby reducing the risk of fires, and increase agricultural activity, contributing to increased agricultural income and the settlement of rural populations.
