다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

As the development of livestock industry has only revolved around economic feasibility and efficiency in Korea to supply low-price goods, it has led to prevalent intensive stock raising such as egg-laying hens raised a closed cage and using modern stalls. However, issues such as livestock epidemic and abuse of antibiotics have led to rising concerns for the breeding process from ethical standpoint, beyond the quality of the products. Thus, the importance of animal welfare has been stressed at an increasing level in the livestock industry. This study is aimed at presenting an ideal direction on animal welfare design, based on the studies, theories, and actual data on design to solve issues with animal welfare in the livestock industry. The method and scope of this study are as follows: Methods and approaches to solving issues with animal welfare is presented from the design standpoint through a literature study and on-site survey on pigs. Based on a case study on domestic and overseas animal welfare design, this study presents the implications through comparison. Next, the potential of animal welfare design is explained through a consumer satisfaction survey on animal welfare. This study presents an ideal direction on animal welfare development through the following elements: external environment design based on resources; internal environment design based on animals. In addition, this study presents ideas for developing the design elements, based on a video on pig treatment in hog barns. Finally, this study explains the potential of integrated studies aimed at improving the animal welfare design.
