Purpose of research: Basic research
The EU has a strategically important global position in terms of beef. In 2003 the EU-25 region produced 8.06 million tons and consumed 8.32 million tons of beef and beef products, estimated at 75 billion. However, CAP reform, increased globalisation, reduced commodity prices and an increasingly sophisticated, health-conscious consumer is motivating the beef-chain to produce beef and beef products that are convenient, traceable, nutritious and of consistent eating quality.
