The future of our planet depends on the intersection of scientific progress and innovative techniques within sustainable beef cattle production. Establishing sustainability in beef production necessitates the delicate balance between the genetic potential of the livestock and their nutritional conditions. In this episode, Dr. Phillip Lancaster explores methodologies to reduce the environmental impact of beef cattle production. Remarkably, he offers insights into his research on liver abscesses and the intricate mechanisms within the gastrointestinal system of cattle.


โ€œEverything is telling us the same story, that there's a difference in the physical barrier of these cattle that have a liver abscess versus the ones that do not have a liver abscess." - Dr. Phillip Lancaster
