This operational group was created with the aim of improving organic dairy farms through strategies to optimise the quality of the fodder obtained on the farms themselves, thus improving their autonomy and sustainability. The results from this operational group should enable livestock farmers to realign fodder production in their organic dairy farms to obtain products with a higher protein content. The group is headed by NUTREX PINSOS SL, a company that manufactures animal feed with a growing client portfolio of organic livestock farmers, which understands and considers the nutritional needs of each species for their correct development and well-being on livestock farms. The Institute of Agrifood Research and Technology (IRTA) aims to contribute to modernising, improving and promoting competitiveness and sustainable development in the agricultural, food, agroforestry, aquaculture and fisheries sectors. It therefore has considerable experience in technological research and development in the agrifood sector. MAS LA COROMINA is a farm in the Bas Valley, in La Garrotxa region, whose land covers approximately 90 hectares and whose activity includes arable and livestock farming, as well as the purchase, sale, marketing and distribution of its products.
