Modeling and Life Cycle Assessment
AgNext is advancing place-based modeling and decision support tools that empower livestock producers to improve productivity, environmental stewardship, and rural vitality. This work will enable the beef and dairy supply chains to accurately report sustainability metrics to stakeholders and consumers. Accurate reporting will lead to continuous improvement of the industry and support national and global nutrition security.
