A new report by the beef industry highlights how producers are improving in some of the most important areas to consumers.
Mandy Carr with the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association tells Brownfield the Beef Stewardship Review helps show consumers beef producers’ commitment to animal health, the environment, local communities and quality beef. “Continued commitment to doing more with the resources that are available is critically important. We see that ‘conservation of my land’ is extremely important to the producers in the survey—95 percent of producers said that was extremely important.”
She says the survey found 90 percent of producers are aware of how their management practices affect the safety and quality of beef.
