📣 RBST Native Cattle Health & Wealth Survey ⚠️
Native cattle breeds play a vital role in sustainable farming, biodiversity, and local food systems. Understanding their health and welfare needs is essential to support good management, inform future research, and ensure these breeds continue to thrive.
We appreciate that both breed and environment can significantly impact health and welfare and want to gain a more detailed understanding of this area.
This survey aims to gather information from keepers and breeders of native cattle about health, welfare, and management practices. Your responses will help build a clearer picture of current challenges and strengths across native breeds.
Participation is entirely voluntary. You may choose not to answer any question and may stop the survey at any time without providing a reason. All responses will be treated as confidential. No individual, holding, or herd will be identifiable in any published results. Data will be used solely for research, education, and informing best practice related to native cattle health and welfare.
This survey is part of the RBST Native Cattle Project:
