Grass-Fed Beef for a Post-Pandemic World: How Regenerative Grazing Can Restore Soils and Stabilize the Climate

With hunger on the rise and climate change threatening global food production, the need for local supplies of healthy, humanely raised meat has never been more urgent. The science is clear: Regenerative grazing restores depleted land, protects against droughts and floods, increases biodiversity, and stores carbon underground. Farmland also becomes significantly more productive with this approach to livestock management. Grass-Fed Beef for a Post-Pandemic World deftly illustrates-through the authors' personal, on-farm experience and examples from consulting around the globe-that by using and supporting regenerative practices, we will protect against the vulnerabilities of our globalized food system. Merging information from the fields of ecology, climate science, nutrition, and animal welfare, authors Ridge Shinn and Lynne Pledger transform our understanding of the possibilities that local, grass-fed beef presents, not only for farmland regeneration and food security but also for individual health and longevity.
