The CSIRO Animal Welfare Team in Armidale, in conjunction with NSW DPI and MLA, are embarking on a joint venture to develop a science-based animal welfare benchmarking program for the beef cattle industry.

To maintain market access, factors such as animal welfare are becoming increasingly important. The team is seeking the participation of approximately 20 NSW beef producers and another 20 from across Australia, who will contribute to this pioneering research and help to develop a practical tool for producers and industry. Producers need to onboard by mid/end of March.
