The Global Conference on Sustainable Beef is taking place in Kilkenny this week, bringing together beef industry representatives from farm to fork and environmental NGOs participating in the Global Rountable on Sustainable Beef.
Bord Bia is an observer member of the roundtable, which aims to improve the environmental, social and animal welfare record of beef production around the world.
On Wednesday, the meeting saw the launch of the European Roundtable for Beef Sustainability, a regional constituency of the organisation targeting priority improvements in greenhouse gas emissions, animal health and welfare, animal medicines and farm management in Europe. Dawn Meats has pushed for the establishment of the European roundtable in the past two years.
