«From grass to meat»

Switzerland is a land of pastures, with 80 % of the usable alpine and agricultural area being grassland. Using pastures for suckler cow husbandry is sustainable, ecological and resource-saving. Meat from grass is species-appropriate and animal welfare-oriented.

Suckler Cow Husbandry

After birth the calf stays with its mother in the stall or in the pasture. From their mother's milk and later from grass and hay, the calves produces first-class gourmet meat.
