The future of Sustainable Livestock is in the balance/combination between sustainable intensification and Agroecology, says Isabel Casasus. #ATF Vision

Three issues to address says Spyros Papadatos, #RuralYouthEurope at #ATF: 1. Mental health, a precondition for stable and productive livestock systems 2. Work-life balance: allowing to take a holiday and attend children's events. 3. Attractive careers

4 priorities in @fao.org Action Plan for Sustainable #Livestock Transformation, explains @besbes

'Without #health, no progress is possible in sustainable livestock systems', says Prof. Michael Lee from @harperadamsuni.bsky.social at Animal Task Force session "Livestock farming systems in next generations' in Brussels @effab.bsky.social #ATF

26 researchers preparing the future of livestock helminth control. This was the 11th annual meeting of #LiHRA. Proud to have organized and chaired, the first time as president of the alliance.

Smaro Sotiraki kicking off the review meeting of #LIFEMiCliFeed. Tackling #livestock emissions via triple action: 1. Use bio-waste; 2. Reduce parasites; 3.Increase productivity. Thanks @animalhealtheu.bsky.social for hosting us. #LIFEprogramme. @smarosotiraki.bsky.social

Vandaag nam ik 3 treinen. Ze waren allemaal op tijd en proper. Mensen waren vriendelijk en goedgemutst. Zo kan het ook. Danku @sncb-nmbs.bsky.social

It was great to have the last #DISCONTOOLS meeting @animalhealtheu.bsky.social premises in Brussels. We had a great presentation by Nick De Regge @sciensano.be on the neglected pandemic of lumpy skin disease ....

Yesterday, I participated in panel discussion on “non technical barriers to vaccine adoption in animal health” at #WVCEU. A.o. we touched upon the need for more social sciences and the need for market development initiatives alongside adressing research needs as coordinated by @staridaz.bsky.social

STAR IDAZ SC meeting happening now. Our scientists our reflecting and advising on issues like: - How can we improve global research prioritisation? - Major disease complexes like #FMD, #ASF, #Brucellosis and #Helminths - Emerging topics requiring action in research activation. @staridaz.bsky.social

Third SPARC press release is ready now. Also available in other languages on request. Read about: - Stakeholder needs - Perceived economic feasibility sustainable practices - pilot farm activities. wormsparc.com/the-third-sp... @viltnieuws.bsky.social

Amazing epidemiological cases at Vienna summer symposium on sustainable worm control in Dairy cattle. #AlpinePastures @envirant.bsky.social #WormsparcEU

Happening now #SPARC farmer exchange between #Flemish and #Irish farmers. Sharing experiences on sustainable parasite control. So happy this is happening.

Moving and insightful presentation by Emily Ashford on the devastating impact of #bovine #tuberculosis on the farm and a farmer’s life. Need more attention for #mentalhealth in animal disease impact and control measures. Great annual meeting of @animalhealtheu.bsky.social on #PreventingDiseaseX

Thanks Maria Martinez Valladares @csic.es for organizing an excellent and productive meeting.

Fighting again windmills and high temperatures or enjoying sweet porc along @envirant.bsky.social meeting? No contradiction in #Madrid.

Productive #SIRCAH meeting in #Antwerpen. Preparing the today and future of STAR IDAZ.
