EU ger eko bland korna - från uppbundet till lösdrift :
ABSTRACT
For hundreds of years there has been a tradition with tethered dairy cows in Sweden. The last
decades the old fashioned way to hold cows have been questioned and the number of dairy
cows in loose housing has been increasing. Last year (2004) 19 percent in total of all farms
with milk production in Sweden had their cows in loose housing. Because of EU-legislation
concerning all organic production no farms are allowed to build tie stalls any more and after
2010 all organic dairy cows are supposed to live in loose-housing systems.
The aim of the thesis was mainly to find out the number of farms with tethered organic dairy
cows and if they will continue after the year 2010. Furthermore the purpose was to study if
there are any regional differences, how countries similar to Sweden interpret the EU-decision
about tethered cows and differences in buildings between organic and conventional farms and
the reasons to them.
