beef production
Raising cows commercially
Beef production is the industry and process of raising cattle for meat.
The term encompasses everything from ranching and feedlot operations to slaughter and processing.
Discussions of beef production often involve environmental concerns—land use, water consumption, methane emissions—alongside economic and food security considerations: Brazil has expanded beef production in recent decades.
