Vitamin B2 supplementation and copper reduction in organic farming – New RELACS practice abstracts

The RELACS project recently published three new practice abstracts (practical guidelines) on:

• Vitamin B2 supplementation for laying and parent hens in organic poultry systems
• Recommendations for vitamin B2 supplements in organic slow-growing broilers
• Copper reduction strategies in viticulture

These practical guidelines targeted to farmers and farm advisors were developed by RELACS project coordinator, the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL), and project partner ÖMKi, the Hungarian Research Institute of Organic Agriculture.

Read the full practice abstracts to learn more about recommendations and on-farm applications on RELACS’s website.

Practice abstracts contain practical guidelines for different actors on the food and farming systems to solve a given problem. Publishing partners are the Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL) and IFOAM Organics Europe.
