Módulo 1: PRODUCCIÓN CAPRINA

OBJETIVOS: La alimentación es uno de los pilares de la ganadería caprina. Una buena alimentación es la base de una buena producción, pero no siempre las raciones que consumen nuestros animales tienen una composición adecuada y no siempre hacemos el mejor uso de las materias primas que tenemos a nuestra disposición. La eficiencia energética, el uso adecuado de forrajes y subproductos o incluso las posibilidades que nos ofrece la alimentación para modificar la composición final de la leche, son algunas de las cuestiones que pretendemos tratar en esta mesa.

What is SEOC?

1 Comment

Sociedad Española de Ovinotecnia y Caprinotecnia – The Spanish Society of Sheep and Goat (SEOC) is a non-profit, open to all professionals with an interest in sheep and/or goats, both meat and milk production.

History
In 1975, a group of teachers, researchers and technicians in the field of animal production set up the Spanish Society of Sheep. The Spanish Society of Sheep was born from the concern of these professionals to exchange knowledge, promote research and above all, translate the latest developments on this species to the rural world through their technicians. In its IX Conference (1984), the field of action of the Society was expanded into the study of Caprine species, and the organization was renamed, the Spanish Society of Sheep and Goat (SEOC).
