Livestock and concern for the environment are two concepts that can go hand in hand without problem. The new form of livestock that is being asserted, respectful of the environment and animal welfare, represents a further example of the commitment of the beef sector with the causes of the preservation of the natural environment and respect for animals.
Next, in this Green Ecologist article, we talk about the livestock sector committed to improving the environment, as well as the projects that have been carried out to improve the productive processes of the sector.
Meat and environment
More and more producers of the livestock sector that they trust sustainable practices that respect the environment. In the case of beef production, the protection of pasture ecosystems stands out, as well as the fixation of carbon in the soil, which generates numerous positive effects on the environment. Precisely, the beef sector is one of the livestock areas where a greater focus has been placed and a greater awareness of the adaptation and evolution of production and consumption techniques towards a sustainable path has been generated, due to the fact that despite representing Only 3.75% of greenhouse gas emissions in Spain is a sector committed to the environment and to the fight against global warming.
In light of this, the livestock sector is working to improve the environment by following a European Union roadmap that aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As a consequence of this strategic plan, the Life Beef Carbon project arose, in which countries such as Spain, France, Italy and Ireland are currently participating.
Livestock sector environmental project: Life Beef Carbon
The Life Beef Carbon project aims to involve all farms that produce beef in practices that reduce emissions of gases that are harmful to the environment, that is, reduce the carbon footprint. This project, led in Spain by the Association of beef cattle producers (Asoprovac), aims to reduce these emissions by up to 15% in the next 10 years.
Thanks to projects such as Life Beef Carbon, the livestock sector wants to ratify its commitment to the environment Carrying out measures that, through the application of an efficient model of sustainable development in the entire process of production and consumption of beef, reduce carbon emissions into the atmosphere
Life Beef Carbon has created more than 170 innovative farms with the ability to produce low-carbon beef, which is why it is being achieved reduce the environmental impact of the meat industry. Furthermore, this common framework within the European livestock sector is helping to promote the improvement of the sustainability of beef within the borders of the European Union.
These actions and the new approach to the livestock sector They improve from the carbon footprint, to the positive impact on an economic level. A method that undoubtedly promotes the improvement of the sustainability of beef at a European level.
