Environmental Sustainability

A better understanding of how beef production practices can improve or impact the environment empowers producers to be optimal stewards of their land, demonstrate the environmental benefits of cattle production, and support science-based regulations. Advancements in feed efficiency and forage and grassland productivity also contribute to environmental sustainability. For further research and extension needs, see specific priorities and target outcomes in the Canadian Beef Research and Technology Transfer Strategy.
