Bassoli, Matteo and Collin, Anne and Goracci, Jacopo and Pluschke, Helen and Rodenburg, Bas and Spinu, Marina and Steenfeldt, Sanna and Werner, Daniela and Zuliani, Anna (2026) Stakeholder Survey on Biosecurity and Animal Welfare in EU Organic, Extensive, and Small-Scale Pig and Poultry Farming Systems. [Data Collection]
Collection description
The dataset collects quantitative survey responses from organic, extensive, and small-scale pig and poultry farmers, veterinarians, advisors, and practitioners across European Union member states (including Italy, France, Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands, Romania, and Belgium). The primary objective of the survey is to analyse real on-farm practices, biosecurity measure implementations, animal health perceptions, disease risk perceptions (e.g., African Swine Fever, Avian Influenza), policy compliance, and self-efficacy/self-esteem psychological constructs among stakeholders.
