Progress report on the AHDB Beef & Lamb Roadmap
The AHDB Beef and Lamb sector steering group, of which BMPA is a member, represented by Lucas Daglish, is currently working on a comprehensive Environment Roadmap to tackle the pressing challenge of sector-related climate change. The roadmap will consolidate ongoing environmental initiatives, aiming to showcase the sector's current status, future ambitions, and strategies for achieving significant environmental improvements. By documenting and verifying progress, the roadmap will seek to enhance the sector's reputation both domestically and internationally, incentivise further advancements, and ensure effective regulation and policies.
Developed under the guidance of a diverse Steering Group appointed by AHDB, the roadmap will emphasise leadership, accurate measurement and verification, greenhouse gas reduction, carbon sequestration, and robust communication. The next phase will focus on implementation, relying on collaboration across the entire beef and lamb supply chain. This collective effort is crucial to achieving our shared vision for a sustainable future.
