Occurrence and reasons for on-farm emergency slaughter of cattle in Norway [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022 On-farm emergency slaughter (OFES) accounts for more than 4% of all cattle slaughter in Norway. The practice raises questions about animal welfare, public health, and the sustainability of cattle production.
