The BIO-Initiative The main objective of the BIO initiative is to create standards and quality assurance programs for plant and ani-mal biological production, thus providing a simple, transparent and easily understandable assessment of prod-ucts. Ultimately, however, is also the default, how much animal welfare has been taken into account in the pro-duction of a product. As a result, higher standards and more animal welfare justify better market and competitive positioning for producers.

The purpose of the association is the promotion of organic farming, the promotion of consumer advice, consumer information and consumer protection and the promotion of animal welfare.

Discovering evolutionary approaches for sustainable animal production

Introduction

Milk, meat and eggs are important staple foods. Therefore, livestock farming makes a significant contribution to human nutrition. The basis for the domestication of today's livestock species, has been laid more than 10,000 years ago. Adapting animals to the requirements of humans has led to a great diversity within livestock species with variable manifestations of different features. Now, the existence of livestock species is conceivable only under the continous care of man. Livestock farming provides more than 50 % of the added value of agriculture and thus is a central component of several agricultural value-creation chains. Also it plays a key role in the circular and the bio-economy. Husbandry of farm animals also forms an important part of maintaining rural, cultural and economic settings.

The value- chain: soil – crop – livestock farming – food production has great potential for further increasing the efficiency and conservation of resources by reducing losses and optimizing material cycles. Animal welfare, animal health and food safety, efficiency and conservation of resources, the ecological footprint and biodiversity at local and global levels – these all are issues of societal concern. Knowledge-based answers must be found for these questions to improve both acceptance and sustainability of livestock husbandry.

At the Leibniz Institute for Farm Animal Biology (FBN), we examine the diverse biological solutions developed within livestock in the course of domestication and breeding, which result in the varying occurrence of important breeding traits. With this knowledge, we wish to make future livestock husbandry sustainable and to achieve individual and situational care for the animals.

Scientists from FBN’s six institutes are working on more than 40 innovative projects in three interdisciplinary programme areas at the modern campus in Dummerstorf, which is equipped with a unique infrastructure. The excellence of the research is supervised by an international Scientific Advisory Board.

Programme Area - Adaptation and biodiversity

Animals differ in their trait characteristics, such as, for example, in physical size or in the number of offspring and in their ability to successfully adapt to changing environmental conditions (ambient temperature, feed quality and quantity). Such differences can be found between species and breeds but also between individuals. The scientists shed light on basic biological mechanisms of the expression and regulation of body functions as well as on adjustments at the level of individuals (adaptation) and populations (biodiversity). This approach elucidates causes for these differences and helps to ensure a sustainable management and use of the diversity of our farm animals.

Programme Area - Animal health and animal welfare

The sustainable protection of animal health and welfare in human care is an important task addressing actual expectations of the society. Domestication, breeding and typical forms of husbandry have led to major physiological and behavioural changes in farm animals in contrast to wild animals. If the influence of man overstrains the adaptation potential developed in the course of evolution, this can be associated with problematic effects for the animals. Our research in livestock therefore focuses on elucidating biological functions and processes, which play a key role in the physical and psychological management of challenges in the context of health and well-being. These include key elements of the nervous, hormonal, immune, reproductive and metabolic systems and their complex interactions.

The interdisciplinary research approaches range from the molecular to the behavioural level; starting from the cell and its compartments to the organism up to social groupings of farm animals. Our aim is to identify innovative bio-indicators for health and well-being and to develop strategies for preventing diseases as well as improving animal welfare within husbandry, nutrition and management.

Programme Area - Resource utilization and environmental interaction

A respectful treatment of the environment is a central requirement for future livestock farming, where the consequences of climate change represent special challenges. This is based, on efficient use of natural resources such as land and water and on the least possible damage to the environment. Both aspects require a comprehensive understanding of the regulation of metabolic processes in livestock under different farming conditions. Therefore we investigate the control of metabolism and animal behaviour at different levels of the biological system. The adaptation capacity of different livestock breeds and individuals is to be recognized as well as made useable and in consequence the husbandry environment for farm animals can be adapted to their needs. Our aim is to contribute to improving health, well-being and performance of animals and to reducing environmental pollution, both based on a broader knowledge of animals’ interactions with their environment.

Animal welfare

We conduct research on and with our livestock to increase knowledge of a variety of biological functions and the physiological and ethological needs and abilities of the animals and then derive solutions for sustainable and animal-friendly livestock farming. For this purpose, we carry out experiments with our cattle, pigs, chicken, goats, mice and fish, using modern housing facilities. Our experiments on animals are designed to deliver meaningful results and take the welfare of the animals into account, which is a key concern of our research work. In addition, our experiments also help to improve the animal's well-being, as we develop insights that will harmonize the match between housing conditions and the animals’ needs.

Understanding the needs of the animals in terms of nutrition, health, their behaviour, their perception and evaluation of the environment enables their individual, situational care. The areas animal health, animal behaviour and emotions are combined in the concept of animal welfare: When animals are healthy, able to behave normally and negative emotions can be avoided, then it can be assumed that the animals are reared in an animal-friendly manner, with good animal welfare status.

Experimental Animal Facilities

Our livestock facilities can accomodate up to 450 livestock units including cattle, pigs, dwarf goats, fish and poultry, which meet the current research needs in terms of genetics and breeding orientation. The existing stable complexes are flexibly oriented towards the specific requirements of an experimental animal husbandry for fundamental research needs. The management of the facilities is QS-certified and is monitored by FBN’s veterinarian and its animal welfare officer. The FBN provides vocational training of animal farmers. Furthermore, the FBN has unique mouse lines as model animals. In combination with other central facilities, such as the ’Tiertechnikum’ with special facilities and the experimental abattoir, FBN’s Experimental Animal Facilities offer very good conditions for comprehensive interdisciplinary experimental approaches.

FBN – a few facts in conclusion

Dummerstorf is a traditional location for livestock research since 1939.

The Leibniz Institute for Farm Animal Biology was founded on 29 January 1993 under the name ‘Forschungsinstitut für die Biologie landwirtschaftlicher Nutztiere (FBN)’ (Research Institute for the Biology of Farm Animals) as a non-profit foundation under public law of the State of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. It is a member of the Leibniz Association and its research receives basic funding from the German Federal Government and the Federal States and additional funding from numerous third-party donors.

The FBN cooperates with more than 200 research institutes in more than 40 countries.

The research is conducted in the six Institutes of Genetics and Biometry, Genome Biology, Reproductive Biology, Behavioural Physiology, Muscle Biology and Growth, as well as Nutritional Physiology. Experts from the disciplines of agricultural sciences, biology, veterinary medicine, chemistry, biochemistry, physics and mathematics work together to solve current problems of livestock biology and develop new concepts for the future.

Training young researchers is of particular importance to FBN and around half of the scientists are involved in training through visiting professorships and teaching assignments at nine universities.

Impressive figures of the FBN

• approximately 260 employees, of which 60 are working as scientists;

• approximately 70 PhD students are supervised;

• approximately 20 million Euro budget, half of which from the German Federal Government and the Federal States respectively;

• approximately 150 publications a year, with more than 85 % in refereed journals.
