Description

There is increasing pressure for the livestock sectors to demonstrate their sustainability credentials and environmental impact, given the direction of travel of global concerns and closer to home, domestic agricultural policy.
To date, much of the discussion has focussed on the potential negative impacts of livestock on the wider environment, and less on the positive externalities that livestock production provides to the environment, along with social and economic benefits.
This piece of work is intended to provide a more holistic view, via development of a sustainability framework from which to accurately measure current and future impact of livestock production in GB.
