EIP-Dairy Calves - Appreciation through value creation
Creation of a cross-stage and scalable value-added chain concept for unweaned calves from dairy farming by developing an offer for the end consumer of regionally and animal-friendly produced beef, taking into account the entire value chain.
The aim of the project is a higher added value for calves and feeders born in Baden-Württemberg and thus an incentive to raise the calves in the state.
-> By achieving a higher price in the final product (beef)
-> Through developing and establishing a value-added concept that will increase the end consumers willingness to pay through regionality, animal welfare, meat quality and authenticity.
Implementation: Through a dialogue between the milk producer (calf producer), the fattening farms, the marketers, the slaughterhouses and the food retrailer to work on and solve problems and issues that arise during the establishement of the value chain concept. From the processor to the fattening farm and back again to the dairy farm, a line of communication must be established that will ultimately bring a product to market that can serve all consumer needs.
Results and the Final report will be found here, as soon as the project is completed.
the intended result is a cross-stage and scalable value-added chain concept for calves born in dairy farming, that could be adopted by other producer organizations, butchers and food retailers throughout Germany. For this purpose, all the details from the marketing channels of the food reailers and in the different husbandry stages werde combined into one transferable value-added chain concept. Different marketing channels for domestic calves/feeders/beef cattle with different high (husbandry) requirements were impemented. As a result, calf rearing in the state is economically interesting and fewer calves are transported out of Baden-Württemberg. Price guarantees enable investments in animal-friendly stables. The position of farmers is strenghtened through associations in producer organizations and direct purchase agreements.
