Milcherzeugung und Soziale Arbeit - Arbeitsplätze für Menschen mit Behinderung in ökologisch wirtschaftenden Milchviehbetrieben

Summary

The concepts of care farms that offer perspectives for people with handicaps differ in
many ways. In this investigation four organic dairy farms providing jobs for handicapped
men were visited. The results of the interviews with the stakeholders carried out
on the farms are presented. A special focus is given to the relationship with the attending
supervisor and the importance of cows and cattle for individual development. The
outcomes give an insight into the daily routine farm work, the possibilities dairy and
care farms offer to their clients, but also the difficulties and limits of integration.
