Die Analyse zeigt, selbst in den höheren Stufen 3 und 4 bleiben zentrale Tierschutzprobleme bestehen.

Unsere Stellungnahme „Warum die Haltungsform-Kennzeichnung Schweinen nicht gerecht wird" analysiert aktuelle wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse zu den Auswirkungen der Haltungsform-Kennzeichnung auf Schweine.

Expertise for Animals erarbeitete die Stellungnahme im Auftrag von Animal Rights Watch e.V. (ARIWA). ARIWA setzt sich für die Abschaffung jeglicher Ausbeutung und Unterdrückung von nichtmenschlichen Tieren ein.

Wir bedanken uns bei ARIWA, dass wir die Stellungnahme frei und für alle Interessierten einfach zugänglich auf unserer Website zur Verfügung stellen können.

Zusammenfassung

Das Label Haltungsform ist eine privatwirtschaftliche Kennzeichnung und besteht aus fünf Stufen. Das freiwillige Kennzeichnungssystem soll vermeintlich höhere Standards für die Haltung von Schweinen kennzeichnen.

Die vorliegende Stellungnahme untersucht, ob die Stufen tatsächlich die Haltungsbedingungen für die Schweine verändern. Dabei nimmt sie das Verhalten und die Gesundheit der Tiere genauer in den Blick.

Die minimalen Verbesserungen der Haltungsstufen 3 und 4 reichen nicht aus, um den komplexen Bedürfnissen und der Intelligenz von Schweinen gerecht zu werden; ihre kognitiven Fähigkeiten und Empfindsamkeit bleiben weitgehend unberücksichtigt.

Trotz formaler Verbesserungen bleibt der Gesundheitszustand der Schweine unzureichend: Platzmangel, Spaltenböden und fehlende Beschäftigung fördern weiterhin Atemwegserkrankungen, Hautprobleme und Lahmheiten.

Ein weiterer Mangel der Kennzeichnung ist, dass nur wenige Aspekte berücksichtigt werden, obwohl eigentlich eine große Zahl an Faktoren für das Wohlergehen von Schweinen entscheidend ist. Punkte wie Gruppengröße, Gruppenstruktur, Mensch-Tier-Interaktionen, Genetik, Bodengestaltung und die Versorgung kranker Tiere werden in der aktuellen Kennzeichnung nicht mit einbezogen.

Warum diese Stellungnahme wichtig ist

Die Stellungnahme zeigt, dass auch in den höheren Stufen der Haltungsform-Kennzeichnung (Stufen 3 und 4) zentrale tierschutzrelevante Defizite fortbestehen.

Aufgrund der nur geringfügigen Veränderungen bleiben die Schweine weiterhin erheblichen physischen und psychischen Belastungen ausgesetzt.

Mit der Stellungnahme machen wir gemeinsam mit ARIWA auf diese Missstände aufmerksam und schaffen eine fundierte Grundlage für Diskussionen und Veränderungen.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
