## Resource

What's the future of ruminant farm systems in Europe? What are the priorities for farmers, policy-makers and the public? Are they price, carbon emissions, carbon drawdown, animal welfare...? In this programme, we're looking at pathways for ruminant agriculture: cattle, sheep, and goats, producing meat and dairy products. ffinlo Costain is joined by Simon Moakes, a research fellow at Aberystwyth University in Wales - by Dr David Yáñez, a research professor at the Spanish National Research Council - and by Sara Hall, a PhD researcher working in the research team at Pasture for Life in the UK. This is the fourth of our programmes investigating Pathways - a 5-year EU Horizon 2020-funded research project that's been running since 2021.
