  "text": "The basic feed ration of the goats comes mostly from the geographical area. It is obtained exclusively by grazing and/or rough grazing and from dry feed made from legumes and/or grasses and/or spontaneous flora preserved in good conditions. As soon as the weather and vegetation permit, the goats must be put out to graze and/or rough graze. The goats must graze regularly on the rough grazing and pastures in the area for at least 210 days per year. For at least four months a year, they must obtain most of their rough feed by grazing.\nThe goats must graze regularly on the rough grazing and pastures in the area for at least 210 days per year.\nThe goats graze:\non pastures composed of spontaneous annual or perennial, arboreal, shrubby or herbaceous species;\non permanent pasture of native flora;\non temporary pasture of grass or legumes or a mix of these.\nThe supply of feed (dry fodder and supplements) in troughs is limited on an annual and daily basis. Purchases of fodder from outside the area are similarly restricted.\nFor at least four months a year, they must obtain most of their rough feed by grazing.\nDuring the period when the roughage ration must come mainly from grazing, the share of hay must not exceed 1,25 kg of raw material a day for each adult goat present.\nThe annual share of hay is limited to 600 kg of raw material for each adult goat present.\nGreen fodder provided in troughs is not authorised for more than 30 non-consecutive days per year.\nThe use of supplements is limited to 800 g of raw material a day for each adult goat present and to 270 kg of raw material a year for each adult goat present.\nCereals must make up at least 60 % of the supplementary annual ration.\nThe use of dehydrated lucerne is limited to 400 g of raw material a day for each adult goat present, provided in at least two portions, and to 60 kg of raw material a year for each adult goat present.\nThe use of fodder and dehydrated lucerne from outside the geographical area of the designation is limited to 250 kg of raw material a year for each adult goat present.\nSilage and wrapped fodder, cruciferous and other plants and seeds that might give the milk a bad taste are prohibited.\nOn the farm, the forage area actually intended for the goat herd must be equal to at least 1 ha of natural and/or artificial grassland for every 8 goats and 1 ha of rough grazing for every 2 goats.",
