Abstract

Three different pasture combinations of grass-fed beef production were evaluated for profitability and sustainability in the Gulf Coast Region. Systems 1 and 2 yielded higher profit than System 3. System 3 produced the lowest greenhouse gas impact. A trade-off was found between profitability and greenhouse gas impact among the systems.
