De vraag is in hoeverre het welzijn van het dier door een keizersnede aangetast wordt. Onderzoek aan de Katholieke Hogeschool van Sint-Niklaas vergeleek de pijnindicatoren bij natuurlijk bevallen met het kalven via keizersnede bij Belgisch witblauwe runderen
Vleesveehouders met verbeterd roodbonten en Belgische witblauwen buigen zich in de zomer van 2007 over de keizersnede: is het mogelijk om rijk bespierd vleesvee te fokken, dat natuurlijk geboren wordt? De projectleider, Jan ten Napel van ASG, is positief gestemd
Hoe buig je de cultuur van systematisch toepassen van een keizersnede om naar meer natuurlijke geboorten? Wageningen UR begeleidt dit proces door vleesveehouders in werkgroepen zelf te laten zoeken naar oplossingen
