Muesli Veal
Power Muesli becomes premium meat
A calf that eats muesli? On the St. Ottilien Farm in Buttisholz in the canton of Lucerne, a new generation of calves is growing up: the Muesli Veal calves. In collaboration with St. Ottilien Farm and Qualivo, a new veal concept has been developed that combines animal welfare, regional agriculture, and top quality.
Trusting Interaction & Close Care
Housing and feeding are crucial for healthy, robust calves. This includes free movement, ample space, a bedded and covered resting area with good ventilation, and scratching brushes to support natural behavior.
The calves follow their natural rhythm and eat as needed. A specially developed muesli with selected micronutrients strengthens the immune system and digestion, and improves nutrient utilization. This is how the meat quality for which Muesli Veal stands is created.
Qualivo relies on a specially developed premium muesli that is precisely tailored to the needs of the calves. Following the principle ‚The feed determines the quality of the end product,‘ the mixture is based on high-quality grain, corn, and wheat flakes, supplemented by plant-based proteins, selected oils, and essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. In addition, by-products of food production, such as corn germ or hazelnut skins, are used to create a natural, nutrient-rich, and ecologically sustainable feed base.
A collaboration of family businesses. At St. Ottilien Farm, experience, tradition, and quality awareness come together. Muesli Veal is the result of a close partnership between family businesses that personally oversee every phase – from feeding to meat quality.
