Proof of husbandry methods

For several weeks now, it has been mandatory for many meat suppliers that deliver to food retailers to indicate the farming method of animal raw materials on the product packaging. The farming methods 1 (indoor housing), 2 (indoor housing plus), 3 (outdoor climate) or 4 (premium) are intended to ensure more transparency for the end consumer, but they also present producers with another major challenge: how do I safeguard my production in order to carry the information from delivery to the finished product? How do I prevent a mixing of different farming methods so that my product does not have to be labeled with a lower farming method even though the majority of all processedBatchescorrespond to a higher husbandry system?

But upstream suppliers of manufacturing companies are also affected by the issue, as they too must pass on exactly the same information to their customers.

Only sophisticated IT systems can help here, which are already separated by farming method when goods are deliveredbatching as well as in the Production planning identify different batch quality programs and dispose intelligently in order to avoid mixing types of husbandry and to ensure clear labeling of the products.
