Welcome to the homepage of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Livestock Sustainability Program.

The definition of sustainability is multifaceted, so here you will find a broad array of resources related to the concept as it pertains to the livestock industry. Water, greenhouse gases, animal welfare, profitability, culture, communication, employee safety, consumer worldviews – just a few of many aspects that contribute to sustainable food systems.

We hope to connect you with the science and the people who are working to advance sustainable livestock systems. Here you will find curated materials, media, and tools from Texas A&M, other universities, and beyond. This space is meant to be both a landing site for ongoing work specific to the Texas A&M AgriLife Livestock Sustainability Extension Program, and a hub to share the work of professionals working on other important and relevant topics.

An important facet of extension work is outreach. We are working to achieve our extension mission through in-person and virtual programming, media ventures like The Steward Podcast, applied research, and newsletters like Beef Cattle Browsings.

Another important facet of extension work is evaluating feedback. If you have questions or suggestions, please reach out.
