cbT

Controlled organic animal husbandry (cbT) includes species-appropriate animal husbandry and feeding as well as the avoidance of fattening aids. Certified organic animal husbandry requires generous, alternating pasture areas and a low stocking density for animals. Fattening aids and the use of pesticides are prohibited. The economy is close to nature in compliance with the ecological load limits. State-recognized, independent inspection bodies are audited annually, and organic producers and processors are responsible for compliance with the stricter production and processing guidelines.
