German term

zum Belegen zugeführt

German to English Bus/Financial Insurance Austrian liability insurance policy
"Nur bei besonderer Vereinbarung besteht Versicherungsschutz für Schadenersatzverpflichtungen aus Schäden an *zum Belegen zugeführten* Tieren und aus der Überlassung von Reittieren an betriebsfremde Personen, sowie dem Fahren von Kutschen und/oder Schlitten aller Art."

Am assuming something to do with procreation. No joy from my Austrian dictionary or google.
TIA for your help.

Yes, Brigitte, post it please.

Hi Brigitte Thanks, the idea of "for mating purposes" sounds about right here.
philgoddard Jun 3, 2014:
You should put that as an answer, Brigitte. Mating is a nice generic term.

agree Ramey Rieger (X) : On the farm we called it decking - talk about cognates. I'll skip the allusions that opens up to us.
