Verified Beef Production Plus

 
Beef industry groups recently partnered and launched the Canadian Beef Sustainability Acceleration pilot. This one-year pilot project aims to create a certified sustainable beef supply chain in which financial credits flow back to cow-calf and feedlot operations. If successful, the pilot would help Canada become the first country to build a supply chain like this, making Canadian beef the sustainable choice in the global marketplace. Virgil Lowe, national business manager of Verified Beef Production (VBP) Plus, sheds more light on the project.

Catching Up on Hay and Crops! After weeks of delay due to relentless rain, we’re finally back in the fields at Ewetopia Farms! In today’s episode of our daily sheep farming vlog, we take you on a full tour of our hay and crop fields, including first-cut hay, second-cut alfalfa, barley, corn, and beans—all of which go directly into feeding our flock. We grow all our own feed so that we know exactly what our sheep are eating, from homegrown hay to custom-milled grain rations.
