How can we learn from previous food production mistakes and pave a
way for producing sustainable, nutritious, local meat? The Covid-19
pandemic exposed the vulnerabilities of our globalised food system
and highlighted the desperate need for local and regional supplies
of healthy meat. We must replace industrial feed models, which are
responsible for significant climate emissions, nitrogen pollution
and animal suffering. Grass-Fed Beef for a Post-Pandemic World
outlines a hopeful path out of our broken food system via regional
networks of regeneratively produced meat. In 2017, Ridge Shinn and
Lynne Pledger went to market with Big Picture Beef, a company that
partners with farmers across the northeastern United States to
provide high-quality, 100% grass-fed beef. Their model has
increased participating farmers' access to wholesale markets, and
their holistic grazing management techniques offer multiple
benefits for the health and wellbeing of consumers, the environment
and livestock. In Grass Fed-Beef for a Post-Pandemic World, you'll
find information assembled from the fields of ecology, climate
science, nutrition and animal welfare, along with stories from
Ridge's travels as a consultant on farms all over the world. You'll
discover how regenerative grazing can: restore degraded farmland
protect against droughts and floods increase biodiversity combat
climate change by reducing emissions and sequestering carbon
contribute to regional economic development produce nutrient-dense,
healthy meat for consumers Grass-Fed Beef for a Post-Pandemic World
is not just for beef producers, but for anyone wondering how our
farmers can raise cattle while caring for the local and global
environment.
