20.500.12556/RUL-104430 Uporaba dvignjene površine v ekološki reji koz srnaste pasme Usage of an elevated platform under organic housing conditions for goats of Alpine breed V Sloveniji se število ekološko usmerjenih kmetij in tudi zanimanje za ekološke izdelke povečujeta. Ekološko kmetijstvo stremi k naravi prijaznemu kmetovanju in vse večji poudarek daje dobremu počutju živali. Prav zato smo se odločili narediti poskus, v katerem smo opazovali uporabo dvignjene površine v ekološki reji koz srnaste pasme. Koze so živali, ki rade ležijo, stojijo ali se gibajo na površinah, ki so dvignjene od tal, ker se tam dobro počutijo. Opazovali smo čredo rogatih in nerogatih koz. Na sredini boksa za koze je bila pritrjena dvignjena lesena površina dimenzij 0,6 m × 1,5 m, od tal je bila dvignjena 0,5 m. Koze so imele prost prehod na pašnik. Živali smo opazovali 10 dni prek video posnetkov, in sicer v 12-urnih časovnih intervalih. Rezultati so pokazali, da so koze dvignjeno površino uporabljale vsak dan, kar potrjuje, da dvignjena površina pripomore k dobremu počutju koz in k njihovemu naravnemu obnašanju. Dvignjeno površino so živali v 96 % uporabljale za ležanje, in sicer največkrat v zgodnjih jutranjih urah, najmanjkrat pa v zgodnjih večernih urah. Na dvignjeni površini so se večinoma zadrževale rogate koze, pod podestom pa nerogate koze. Z rezultati smo potrdili, da so rogate koze dominantne, saj imajo po definiciji dostop do najboljših resursov. Menimo, da je dvignjena površina dober in uporaben element v reji koz, je cenovno ugoden in omogoča izražanje kozam specifičnega obnašanja ter ugodno vpliva na zdravstveno stanje živali. In Slovenia, the number of ecological farms and the interest for organic products have increased. Ecological farming strives for a nature-friendly system and emphasizes the welfare of animals. Following this, we carried out a study with wich we observed the use of an elevated platform in organic farming for goats of the Alpine breed. Goats are animals that lie, stand and move on an elevated platform, because that is where they feel good, this is their natural behaviour. Our herd of horned and dehorned goats had a wooden elevated platform in the middle of a box, measuring 0.6 m x 1.5 m and was elevated 0.5 m from the floor. Goats also had a free access to the pasture. We observed the animals for 10 days using a video footage, of 12-hour intervals. The results showed that our goats used the elevated platform every day, confirming that platforms contribute to a better goat welfare and promote natural behaviour. Animals used the elevated area in 96% for lying, most often in the early morning and very little in the early evening. Horned goats mostly spent their time on the platform, whereas dehorned goats preferred to be underneath it. Horned goats are generally more dominant since they have better access to the best resources. We believe that the elevated platform is a good and useful element in goat housing, which is also affordable and enables the expression of a goat specific behaviour and has a beneficial effect on the state of animal health. drobnica koze pasme srnasta pasma ekološka reja dvignjene površine small ruminants goats breeds Alpine breed ecological farming elevated platform true false false Slovenski jezik Angleški jezik Diplomsko delo/naloga 2018-10-06 07:45:01 2018-10-06 07:45:07 2022-08-17 03:43:51 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2018 0 0 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 1970-01-01 159443 4133000 4376.pdf 4376.pdf 1 D58146D7204CD761B050FDA3A819E626 206472b988f3deea62a0cc9aa0c3e993457bb023b3f221a7d151483decc3ac46 fbc8e39e-a1b5-11eb-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=114953 Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
