RAU researchers welcome UK dairy industry's new welfare strategy
10 July 2023
Animal welfare lecturers and researchers at the Royal Agricultural University (RAU) have welcomed a new welfare strategy which has been adopted by the UK dairy industry – a move that they recommended in a paper written last year.
The new UK Dairy Cattle Welfare Strategy – produced by Ruminant Health & Welfare and supported by a host of industry leaders and organisations across the whole farm to fork supply chain - is designed to help the UK dairy sector demonstrate progress in six key areas of cow welfare over the next five years.
