Beef supply chain emissions can be reduced by more than 30% by 2030.

New and emerging technologies and management practices all offer significant opportunities.Beef supply chain contributions to global GHG emissions need to go down, and they can. 

Rabobank anticipates the market will be the most effective driver of GHG emissions reduction and believes that beef supply chain emissions can be reduced by more than 30% by 2030 in major markets.

 But in order to unlock the opportunities, leadership is needed. All sectors and supply chains need to reduce emissions, and the beef supply chain is no exception. 

Beef supply chains account for about 6% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, of which about half are accounted for by the beef production stage of the supply chain. 

 New and emerging technologies and management practices – covering feed production, cattle breeding, cattle feeding, and soil and pasture management – all offer significant opportunities to reduce emissions. 

But that is not the only resource, global beef supply chain emissions can also be reduced significantly by transferring best practices from the most efficient beef supply chains to less efficient ones. The main driver will be the market.

Global Food Prices Set To Soar As The Oil And Gas Crunch Continues.

 

Oil and gas prices have risen dramatically this year as a result of under investment and recovering demand.·Higher fuel prices are weighing on global food supply chains, with transportation and farming costs continuing to climb. · 

 The hardest hit will, once again, be those living in developing economies that are still struggling to recover from the impact of the pandemic. 

 The potential for a knock-on effect of rising fuel prices to be felt by other industries is becoming more likely, as oil and gas prices continue to rise to an all-time high, companies are finding it hard to maintain their costs and may have to shift this burden to the consumer any day now.
