The global beef market is valued at over $400 billion USD, and US consumers eat more beef than any other country in the world. Yet, most consumers know relatively little about livestock handling and the practices bringing cattle from the field to the dinner plate. This week our guest is Dr. Temple Grandin, a leading expert on animal behavior in the livestock industry. Dr. Grandin shares her extensive knowledge on ethical livestock handling, sustainable grazing, and the importance of proper cattle management. The conversation delves into practical advice for managing cattle, from rotational grazing to addressing genetic issues in breeding, and highlights Dr. Grandin’s contributions to improving animal welfare in slaughterhouses. Listeners will gain an insightful perspective on the interconnectedness of animal welfare and sustainable agriculture.
