关于运输期间动物福利的科学意见审查了有关主要农场物种的最新科学信息。新的科学证据和随后的结论和建议按照EC法规1/2005(5)附件I的结构排列。关于运输的适宜性,对牛和家禽的建议侧重于在运输前反复进行人道处理和仔细检查。在运输工具方面,主要建议在马匹运输中使用隔板,在车站强制禁食猪并提供水,以及限制家禽的温度。保持动物群体的稳定性被推荐为良好做法,特别强调需要避免将不熟悉的猪或山羊混在一起。在饮水和喂食间隔、行程时间和休息时间方面,马的行程时间不应超过12小时,牛的行程时间不应超过29小时。应在运输前一小时和运输后一小时向马供水,牛应有24小时的恢复期,可以获得食物和水。对于兔子来说,在围栏内停留的时间应被视为旅行时间。马的空间允许量应以kg/m2而不是m2/动物表示。对于牛和羊,建议应根据与大小和体重相关的异速生长方程计算空间允许量。集装箱肉鸡饲养密度的限制应与热条件有关。在导航系统上,应安装温度监测系统。应就记录的数据类型、系统和机载结构制定最低标准。进一步研究的建议集中在家禽和兔子的温度限制和调节,通风对猪的影响,兔子,新孵化的小鸡和猪的空间允许,马,猪和小牛的最佳旅行时间。(C)欧洲食品安全局,2011年
The Scientific Opinion on the welfare of animals during transport reviewed the most recent scientific information concerning the main farm species. New scientific evidence and consequent conclusions and recommendations were arranged following the structure of Annex I of EC Regulation 1/2005(5). On fitness for transport, recommendations for cattle and poultry were focused on repeated humane handling and careful inspection prior to transport. On the means of transport, use of partitions in horse transport, compulsory fasting of pigs with provision of water at stops, and temperature limits for poultry were major recommendations. Maintaining stability of animal groups was recommended as good practice, with special emphasis on the need to avoid mixing unfamiliar pigs or goats. On watering and feeding intervals, journey times and resting periods, journey duration should not exceed 12 hours for horses and 29 hours for cattle. Horses should be supplied with water one hour before and one hour after transport, and for cattle there should be a 24 hour recovery period with access to food and water. For rabbits, time spent inside the containers during lairage should be considered journey time. Space allowance for horses should be given in terms of kg/m(2) instead of m(2)/animal. For cattle and sheep, it is recommended that space allowances should be calculated according to an allometric equation relating size to body weight. Limits for stocking densities of broilers in containers should be related to thermal conditions. On the navigation systems, temperature monitoring systems should be incorporated. Minimum standards should be established regarding data type to be recorded, the system and the on-board architecture. Recommendations for further research focused on the thermal limits and regulation for poultry and rabbits, the effects of ventilation on pigs, space allowance for rabbits, newly hatched chicks and pigs, optimal journey times for horses, pigs and calves.
