Summary: In the Anthropocene era we are living in, the environmental impact caused by the livestock industry must be addressed while meeting the feed standards required by the global population. These goals can be achieved through the improvement of key production phenotypes (i.e., feed efficiency and methane production), and the overall health of individual animals and the herd, reducing the use of natural resources.
