TL;DR: AFN develops standards for regenerative, grass-fed beef, focusing on sustainability, animal welfare, and soil health.
The American Farmers Network (AFN) has announced its initiative to develop comprehensive standards for regenerative grass-fed beef. With the USDA’s nod to use the Regenerative Agriculture claim, AFN aims to lead the beef industry towards sustainable practices.
AFN is joining forces with certification bodies to forge clear, transparent standards. These standards will emphasise soil health, animal welfare, and regenerative farming principles.
The goal is to make regenerative beef widely available, encouraging farmers to adopt these eco-friendly practices. AFN believes this will promote a sustainable agricultural future.
Certification will cover soil health, grazing management, and social responsibility. Farms meeting these criteria will be recognised as sustainable, ethical producers.
This effort signifies a major step towards eco-conscious farming, offering consumers a responsible choice.
