Environment, Natural Resource Management and Climate Change

The Australian pig industry is committed to ensuring environmentally sustainable pork production, which is about maintaining a long-term competitive pork industry in Australia while sustaining Australia's resources and the environment.

The pork industry has undertaken a proactive approach to environmental sustainability over the years and has a history of significant investments into R & D in this area. Among others, research efforts aim at continuous improvement of factor productivity, waste minimisation, pollution prevention and beneficial reuse of wastes to reduce the industry's environmental footprint.
