摘要: Issues raised by cattle farming in relation to climate change extend beyond discussion of greenhouse gas emissions and global warming. There are profound consequences for water availability, soil degradation, biodiversity local ecology, as well terms conflict energy supplies. Although impacts on (through effects heat stress flooding, example), this article focuses how change. It explores the issues impact environment, measure reduce at farm level. Managing complex conflicting balance factors required sustainable food production offers an important role veterinary surgeon.
