livestock production systems

Livestock production systems are methods used to raise animals like cows, sheep, goats, and pigs for food, fiber, or other products. These systems vary based on how animals are managed and their environment. For example, some animals are raised on open pastures where they graze naturally, while others are kept in controlled indoor settings for efficiency. Different systems balance factors like land use, climate, animal welfare, and economic considerations to meet demand for products such as meat, milk, wool, and leather. The goal is to produce these goods sustainably and responsibly, considering both producers and consumer needs.
