This Office operates as specialised scientific support
to UCCPA, inter alia, in the management and verification procedures for
loading data bulletin productivity of milk on Dvd and initiate the consultation
activities of the bulletin on the web. The
Office offers a qualified technical support to the associates and participates
in several national, European and International research activity among which
we can recall the Project Climanimal, dedicated to the study of the influence
of climate on livestock, in collaboration with University of Tuscia, ISMEA, CREA
and CNR. We
can also remember the comparative research between organic and conventional
livestock production from farms enrolled in functional checks, so called Probio
Project, which aims to highlight the differences in the fatty acid, protein composition
and the level of aflatoxin contamination between products derived from
conventional and organic animal husbandry. Its
experts also perform teaching activities as part of training of new
controllers.
It
also guarantees various advisory activity to the national associations of species
and breeds that have acceded to the Convention genetic evaluations.
It is is in charge of all the
necessary documentation and follows up on the procedures necessary for the
Certificate of Quality ICAR (International Committee for Animal Recording),
which has been granted to AIA since 2013 (see page ICAR certification for
