Description

This thought-provoking book explores the link between animals, people and their social and physical environments in relation to livestock farming, food safety, food security and sustainability.

Providing an overview of livestock farming and animal related food production systems in a one welfare context, One Welfare: Animal Health and Welfare, Food Security and Sustainability begins by considering the interconnections of animals, humans and their environment.

It then expands into the food production system, and considers the integration of positive welfare, stress, use of welfare indicators and the economic perspective.

Written by a team of international experts, and with a foreword by Andrea Gavinelli, Head of the Animal Welfare Unit in the Health and Food Safety Directorate General of the European Commission, it connects theory with best practice examples and case studies from both organizations and individuals that have successfully implemented a one welfare approach.

Essential reading for academics and practitioners who work within farming, food systems and international development, this ground-breaking text is also an important read for veterinary and animal welfare professionals.
