On the 26th of January 2022, we realized one of our biggest projects: we finally set up a field for grazing our heifers, visible to everyone in the field adjacent to the company.
From now on, they will be able to spend the first months of their life grazing freely in a large and well-equipped area, where they can feed with the right mix of wild herbs, drink and take shelter.
Animal welfare has always been a fundamental value of the Montecoppe philosophy; in fact, all animals are guaranteed a clean, spacious and comfortable environment without any type of mistreatment and with a prudent use of drugs and antibiotics.
The animals will spend in this space the entire period preceding the first pregnancy, from this moment on they will officially begin to be part of the herd involved in the production of milk for our supply chain DOP Parmigano Reggiano!
This is a further step to strive for ever higher quality standards and animal welfare, with the aim of bringing to our customers’ tables a product that is increasingly respectful of the environment and animals.
