CARNE ARGENTINA SOSTENIBLE

The European market is very demanding and expects continuity in the supply of our products; as well as innovation in ecological production , respecting environmental sustainability and, of course, animal well-being.

After many years of hard and continued work, we have managed to achieve a good team of producers and refrigerators , which together help us to satisfy the demands and commitment we maintain with our final client , providing sustainable environmental information and studies. Providing good quality, expanding our range of products of the highest quality that can be found in the country to the Spanish market, being at the forefront of European competitors.

Furthermore, this sector works to stop winter gas emissions and reduce global warming. In this way, we contribute to reducing emissions and enhancing CO2 capture

These are some of the main factors that make Argentine meat sustainable meat, coming from a permanently improving sector based on scientific studies and the application of technical developments, so that it is fully compatible with the health of the planet and mitigate climate change .

• Extensive farming allows the maintenance of ecosystems that act as carbon dioxide sinks and reservoirs and prevents the deforestation of pastures and grasslands . The vast majority of Argentine production comes from these pastoral systems with a large capacity to fix carbon .
• Agricultural production has a low water content . Furthermore, the activity is perfectly compatible with the autochthonous flora and fauna . It also maintains biodiversity and land conservation .
• This extensive and pastoral system allows integration with other productions in crop rotation, or combined uses (silvo-pastorals). This allows a great capacity for adaptation, complementarity and sustainability to agricultural production.
• The type of forage used in feeding affects digestibility and gas emissions. It works to characterize these carbon levels associated with certain forages through control and monitoring to adjust them appropriately.
• The majority of beef production systems in Argentina have very little dependence on external inputs , as they are based on natural pastures through extensive breeding. This means that the use of agrochemicals, fertilizers or other agricultural inputs is not necessary or is used at a very low frequency.
• Complementation of livestock production with the agro-food industry for the use of this by-products for livestock fattening (in those cases that are required) or as supplements for livestock farming.
• The use of megathermal species pastures makes it possible to reduce the erosion processes of grain agriculture . Likewise, research is being carried out to identify the most optimal bovine genetics that make high quality meat compatible with a lower environmental impact.

Ultimately, the form of meat production in Argentina is a respectful system based on its own idiosyncrasy (extensive farming), but in addition the livestock sector is very conscious of the need to minimize agricultural emissions and maintain a net balance . For this purpose, there is constant use of the scientific-technical knowledge generated in this field by its own investigations, as well as at an international level.
