How can grass-based beef production systems, based on agroecology principles, remain sustainable?
The final report of this Focus Group has now been published.
Tasks:
- Identify practices and strategies to increase environmental, social and economic sustainability of grass-based beef production systems in Europe (including agroforestry) and collect inspiring examples and good practices.
- Discuss how traditional business models can evolve to better valorise the ecosystem services and public goods provided by grass-based beef production systems.
- Collect good examples of communication strategies and tools which deliver objective and evidence-based information to consumers and citizens.
- Propose potential innovative actions and ideas for Operational Groups.
- Identify needs from practice and possible gaps in knowledge related to the sustainability of beef production systems which could be solved by further research.
