🤷 know very little about farming (that's totally fine!)

There are no right or wrong answers, only your honest opinion. Take 15 minutes and help shape the conversation around Cow-Calf Contact. 💬

You can answer it in your own language:
🇬🇧 EN | 🇩🇰 DA | 🇪🇪 ET | 🇫🇷 FR | 🇩🇪 DE | 🇬🇷 EL | 🇮🇹 IT | 🇳🇴 NO | 🇷🇴 RO | 🇸🇪 SV

🐮 Cow-Calf Contact: ever heard of it as a consumer?

On most dairy farms, calves are separated from their mothers soon after birth. With Cow-Calf Contact (CCC), cows and calves stay together for a longer period.

It's a growing topic across Europe, and we'd like to know what consumers really think about it. 👀

Your opinion matters whether you know a lot about farming or nothing at all.
