The goal of the applied project is to shed light on overlooked aspects of the complex subject of horse welfare.
Because of the specific position stall owners have, they are especially suitable to contribute to our knowledge about
the possibilities and limitations that set the conditions for realized horse welfare. Hence, a study that collects
information from stall owners on this subject will make a valuable contribution to the further work for horse welfare
and shed light over the complexity of the subject. New possibilities for deeper understanding and discussions about
how to realize a better horse welfare will be opened. The applied project will also provide all parts concerned with a
clearer picture of what kind of strategies that are needed, in order to fulfill horse welfare needs and also develop
horse welfare further.
Projektet syftar till att genom intervjuer med stallägare tydliggöra och analysera vilka hinder och möjligheter stallägare
ser i sitt arbete med att förverkliga en god hästvälfärd. Målet är att kasta ljus över förbisedda aspekter beträffande
hinder och möjligheter för att realisera en god hästvälfärd. Stallägare befinner sig i en position som har särskilt god
inblick i detta. Därför har en studie som samlar in information från stallägare goda förutsättningar att bli ett värdefullt
bidrag till det fortsatta arbetet med att utveckla hästvälfärden och att belysa ämnets komplexitet. Nya möjligheter för
en djupare förståelse och diskussion kommer att öppnas. Projektet kommer också att bidra med att alla berörda parter
får en klarare bild av vilka strategier som behövs för att utveckla hästvälfärden i framtiden.

Adding flowers to the cropping system that support beneficial insects is a promising option to achieve crop protection
in Swedish agriculture and horticulture. However, the wide-spread adoption of this approach has been hampered by
limited economic benefit and the risk of propagating pests and …
