Where does the beef come from, and what do the Premium Angus packages contain?
Extensive cattle farming refers to the method of raising these animals in natural or near-natural conditions, where cows are allowed to graze on pasture and are not artificially fattened. This type of farming can take longer, as cows do not grow as quickly as those raised in intensive systems. The slaughter process may also be longer and more challenging because the cows are larger and heavier.
Beef production involves raising animals, slaughtering them, and processing the carcass to obtain various beef products. The entire process of obtaining beef can take several months or even years, depending on the type of animal and the farming method used.
- steaks – T-bone, sirloin (with or without bone), tenderloin
- other cuts or preparations – chuck, brisket, flank, skirt steak, ribeye, picanha, etc.
- beef for roasting – sirloin tip, rib roast, cap, chuck eye, rump
- ground beef obtained from the trimmings of other cuts
Through the short production chain, the product can quickly and safely reach the end consumer, whether at home or in restaurants, butcher shops, etc.
A short production chain refers to the method of beef production where animals are raised, slaughtered, and processed near consumers, eliminating intermediaries and reducing transportation and storage. This can provide consumers with fresh and higher-quality beef, as well as the opportunity to know the farmer and the animal farming method. It can also reduce environmental impact by decreasing transportation and storage.
Local products may be more accessible to consumers because they do not require long-distance transportation and can be fresher than imported products. Additionally, supporting local products can boost the local economy and reduce environmental impact.
