You can now find organic meat for BARF in our range in a wide variety of forms - from dried pig's ears as a fun snack to a full meal made from organic meat as well as fruit and vegetables from organic farming. Reason enough for us to take a look at which criteria are important for organic meat and whether feeding organic meat can have concrete advantages for your pet.
ORGANIC BARF: Animal husbandry is crucial
If you want to BARF with organic products, you naturally want to do something good for your animal. This includes knowing that the animals used to produce the meat were kept according to appropriate criteria. First of all, however, we should establish that the animals slaughtered for "conventional" BARF meat undergo the same food inspections as animals from organic rearing. The meat that we use in the BARF shop at haustierkost.de, for example, comes from animals that were assessed according to the same standards as the animals intended for slaughter for humans. However, different requirements apply to organic meat during rearing.
In concrete terms, organic meat for BARFing is based on criteria that are set individually for each animal species. These include, for example, the size of the stable and the condition of the floors, such as the prohibition of (exclusive) slatted floors and cages. There are also certain requirements regarding opportunities for exercise, feed and the total number of animals. Furthermore, species-specific characteristics of organic farming can be prescribed, such as the availability of dust baths, water basins or digging areas.
Using organic benefits when BARFing
The organic guidelines for BARF mean that your animal receives high-quality meat, which can differ from conventional meat in some aspects. Organic meat can often contain more vitamin D, as the animals can soak up the sun when they are regularly allowed to roam, for example on pasture. In addition, the ban on preventative antibiotics in organic meat tends to lead to less stress - although this can vary from animal to animal, even if the animal is reared differently. In addition, organic meat usually contains fewer stress hormones, which affect the quality of the meat.
