    Sammanfattning : Primärproduktionen, där animalieproduktion är en del, behöver kunna fortgå trots störningar så som mer extrema väderförhållanden med långdragen torka eller kraftiga skyfall, större sjukdomsutbrott eller i värsta fall väpnad konflikt. Idisslare har en viktig roll i vår livsmedelsförsörjning men i dagsläget vet vi väldigt lite om hur den enskilda gården skulle påverkas vid olika samhällsstörningar. LÄS MER
