Sustainability

Ruminants are unquestionably unique. From their ability to up-cycle carbon sources like pasture, food production byproducts and resources from non-arable land, converting them into highly nutritious protein. This uniqueness places them central to the three pillars of sustainability (environmental, social and economic) and further reinforces why they have been an integral part of all societies, throughout time.

Ruminants have regulatory mechanisms that might be the key for further improving sustainability.

To feed the global population, we need to produce more food in the next 35 years than we have done in the last 8,000 years. Hence we have to produce more from limited resources whilst reducing our foodprint.

Around 90% of all the biomass agriculture is producing, is not editable by humans so it needs to be converted and brought back into circulation, all thanks to ruminants!
