This report explores how improving cattle health can deliver a ‘triple win’ for climate, food systems, and rural livelihoods. Developed by HealthforAnimals and the Global Roundtable for Sustainable Beef, it sets out five core principles for aligning animal health with sustainability goals and shares real-world examples of progress from around the world. The report offers practical guidance for policymakers, industry leaders, and development partners seeking to build a healthier, more resilient livestock sector.
This report is also available in Spanish and Portuguese (Brazilian).
Nature Positive Report
Global Roundtable for Sustainable Beef: Nature Positive Production and its Measurable Impact on the Beef Supply Chain
by Brodie Crouch, Hillary Fenrich and Josefina Eisele
We are marking an important milestone for GRSB with the release of the summary of the “Nature Positive Production and Its Measurable Impact on the Beef Supply Chain” report, developed by Brodie Crouch, Hillary Fenrich, and Josefina Eisele with support from the GRSB Nature Positive Working Group.
This work reflects continued progress toward GRSB’s 2030 Nature Positive goal and responds to a clear need across the beef value chain: practical, science-aligned approaches to measuring and demonstrating nature positive outcomes in real production systems.
The report provides guidance designed to support producers and value chain partners working across different regions and contexts. It does not prescribe a single method but instead draws on established global frameworks to support alignment and comparability in how nature-related outcomes are understood and applied.
Its release reflects a broader effort across the GRSB network to strengthen how nature outcomes are measured, communicated, and improved over time. We hope you will take a moment to read the summary (attached here) and engage with the work.
