Increase grazing vs indoor feeding to meet customer desires and added milk value​
Animal welfare
Understanding consumer desires may help in adding value to milk (products). Consumers are found to care about sustainability, animal welfare and grazing - however, despite seeing higher value in systems that support animal welfare the willingness to pay does not necessarily go together with consumer preferences. One of the more apparent consumer preferences is having milk from dairy cows that have a relative higher degree of movement freedom, typical for free walk systems either with or without grazing, in line with their natural behaviour and/or fitting with cultural image. ​ download

Community supported agriculture on dairy farms
Economic resilience Social resilience Society friendly
Community-supported agriculture (CSA) is a contract based partnership between farmers and consumers. The basic idea is that a fixed circle of consumers finances a farm and thus ensures their own supply of sustainable and high-quality food. It is an alternative socio-economic model of agriculture and food distribution that allows producers and consumers to share the risks of agriculture. The members advance money to the farmer for seeds, wages and agricultural equipment, decide together with the farmer what and how to produce and in return receive their share of fruit, vegetables, dairy products and meat. download

Environment Technical efficiency
Les scénarios actuels de changement climatique et de crise climatique imposent de travailler, à tous les égards, de manière beaucoup plus efficace et économique. Dans le secteur laitier, les systèmes conventionnels de pompes à vide ne tiennent généralement pas compte des besoins en air, qui varient considérablement tout au long du cycle. L'entraînement à vitesse variable détermine exactement la quantité de vide dont le système a besoin et régule la vitesse de la pompe. Le résultat est une pompe qui fonctionne à une vitesse beaucoup plus basse la plupart du temps et qui nécessite moins d'électricité pour effectuer son travail. En outre, la chaleur dégagée par les réservoirs de refroidissement peut être utilisée pour chauffer l'eau. Grâce à ces deux mesures, de plus en plus d'agriculteurs peuvent améliorer leur efficacité énergétique et réduire leur consommation d'énergie et d'eau, ainsi que leurs émissions de CO2. download

Monilajiset nurmet (MSS) - rehuyrttien käyttö rehusadon, ravinteiden hyväksikäytön ja biodiversiteetin parantamiseksi
Environment Technical efficiency
Monilajiset nurmet ovat nurmia, joissa on laaja kirjo kasveja, kuten nurmi-, palko-, ristikukkais- sekä yrttikasveja. Seoksen eri lajien juuret ulottuvat eri syyvyyksiin ja saavat siten enemmän ravinteita ja kosteutta maaperästä. Ne parantavat näin maaperää ja lisäävät laidunten biomassaa. Yrttilajien kuten sikurin ja heinäratamon syvä juuristo parantaa hiilen sidontaa ja monilajisten nurmien kuivuudenkestävyyttä. Lisäksi monipuoliset laitumet auttavat parantamaan biodiversiteettiä (erityisesti pölyttäjien osalta) ja auttavat vähentämään laidunten typpitappioita pienemmän typpilannoitustarpeen vuoksi. download
Työn automatisointi lypsy- ja ruokintarobottien avulla
Economic resilience Social resilience Technical efficiency
Karjakoon kasvattaminen tilalla lisää työmäärää, koska erityisesti säännöllisesti toistuvien, aikaan sidottujen työtehtävien kuten lypsämisen määrä kasvaa. Tämä vähentää jouston mahdollisuutta tiloilla vähentäen mahdollisuutta palautua vapaa-ajalla. Lisäksi koulutettuja ja kyvykkäitä työntekijöitä on yhä vaikeampi löytää. Töiden automatisoinnilla pyritään lyhentämään työaikaa, lisäämään ajallista joustoa, helpottamaan työn tekemistä ja tarjoamaan yksilöllistä hoitoa karjalle. download

Selektives Trockenstellen
Animal welfare Environment Society friendly
Die Ausbreitung von Antibiotikaresistenzen ist zu einem wichtigen gesellschaftlichen Gesundheitsproblem geworden. Trockensteller sind antibiotikahaltige Medikamente, die in der Milchproduktion zum Trockenstellen der Milchkühe, also zur Umstellung in die nicht laktierende Phase, eingesetzt werden. Das selektive Trockenstellen von Milchkühen bedeutet, dass nicht alle Kühe systematisch, sondern nur gesundheitsauffällige Kühe mit Antibiotika trockengestellt werden. Selektives Trockenstellen trägt daher maßgeblich zur Verringerung des Einsatzes antimikrobieller Mittel in der Milchproduktion bei (laut Schätzungen 50 der Kühe könnten ohne Antibiotikum trockengestellt werden) download
Selective dry cow therapy (using milk recordings)
Animal welfare Environment Society friendly
The spread of antibiotic resistance has become a major public health problem. Dryers are antibiotic-containing drugs that are used in milk production to dry off dairy cows, i.e. to switch them to the non-lactating phase. The selective drying-off of dairy cows means that not all cows are systematically dried off with antibiotics, but only cows with health problems. Selective drying off therefore makes a significant contribution to reducing the use of antimicrobials in milk production (according to estimates: 50% of cows could be dried off without antibiotics). download

Maximiser les performnces du fourrage afin de réduire l’apport en concentré – ensilage d’herbe
Economic resilience Technical efficiency
Les ruminants ont une capacité unique à convertir les matières premières fibreuses en produits laitiers et carnés de haute qualité grâce à une évolution géniale : le rumen. Le rumen héberge des microbes fibrolytiques qui permettent d'utiliser, par exemple, de l'herbe qui n'est pas directement comestible pour l'homme. La culture de l'herbe fournit de nombreux services écosystémiques tels que le piégeage du carbone, l'amélioration de la biodiversité, la réduction de l'érosion, la capture des nutriments, l'amélioration de la structure du sol, etc. Les fourrages fibreux sont des aliments naturels pour les ruminants et favorisent la santé de leur système digestif. En règle générale, les aliments à base d'herbe sont également moins chers que les aliments concentrés. Tous ces facteurs jouent en faveur d'une utilisation accrue de l'herbe dans l'alimentation des ruminants, mais cela nécessite la production d'aliments à base d'herbe de bonne qualité. download

Les prairies fourragères multi-espèces - l'utilisation d'herbes fourragères pour améliorer le rendement fourrager, l'assimilation des nutriments et la​ biodiversité
Environment Technical efficiency
Les prairies multi-espèces sont des prairies composées d'une variété de plantes comprenant des graminées, des légumineuses, des brassicacées et des herbes. Lorsqu'elles sont combinées dans un pâturage, les espèces s'enracinent à différentes profondeurs, ce qui leur permet d'accéder à davantage de nutriments et d'humidité dans le sol, favorisant ainsi une meilleure santé du sol et une augmentation de la biomasse du pâturage. L'enracinement profond des espèces d'herbes, telles que la chicorée et le plantain, augmente la séquestration du carbone et améliore la tolérance à la sécheresse des prairies multi-espèces. En outre, des pâturages diversifiés contribuent à améliorer la biodiversité, en particulier les pollinisateurs, et peuvent aider à réduire les pertes de nitrates des pâturages grâce à des besoins moindres en engrais azotés.​ download

ENCOURAGING IMPLEMENTATION OF VARIABLE SPEED DRIVE VACUUM PUMPS, USE OF MILK PRE COOLING AND OPTIMISATION OF WATER HEATING CYCLES TO REDUCE ELECTRICITY USE
Environment Technical efficiency
The current scenarios of climate change and climate crisis make it necessary to work, in all aspects, much more efficiently and economically. In the dairy sector, conventional vacuum pump systems most often do not take into account air demands, with this varying widely throughout the cycle. The Variable Speed Drive determines exactly how much vacuum the system requires and regulates the speed of the pump. The result is a pump that runs at a much lower speed most of the time and requires less electricity to do the job. In addition, the heat released by the cooling tanks can be used for water heating. With these two measures, more and more farmers can improve energy efficiency, and reduce energy and water consumption, as well as CO 2 emissions. download
