Best Practice Hens - Pilot Project on Best Practices for Alternative Egg Production Systems

Best Practice Hens (BPH) will prepare and provide practical support to egg producers to encourage them to move from caged to cage-free systems. This applies to both the breeding of laying hens and the maintenance of laying hens in the production period. Ensure wide dissemination of information collected on best practices through the development of communication materials (videos and practice summaries). The BPH will organize outreach events targeting Member States with a high percentage of cage systems to increase the implementation of cage-free housing systems in the target Member States (Spain, Poland, Portugal and Belgium).
