This book explores developments in the key areas of agricultural animal welfare assessment and improvement. It reviews advances in animal welfare science and examines transdisciplinary research in animal welfare, with coverage of bioethics, welfare and sustainability from both environmental and food safety perspectives. It also delves into the process of translating science into policy and practice, followed by discussion on the global achievability of welfare standards. |
