Abstract

The current work presents a bibliographic review on livestock production and how it influences the food chain, since the increase in the world population has increased the demand for animal products, for which intensive production is required, because nowadays, Livestock producers are increasingly aware of the various factors that affect welfare, such as nutrition, environmental conditions, facilities, management, disease, transport and slaughter, as well as the market. The demand for products produced in accordance with animal welfare standards guarantees a safe and high-quality meat product for the final consumer. The environment plays an important role in the comfort of animals as part of their well-being. The feed must cover the nutritional requirements for each productive stage, to allow the maximum expression of animal genetics.

Keywords: cattle, nutrition, market, meat products, final consumer.
