Abstract: The Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute (AFBI) recently convened a European Workshop in Milan to discuss some of the key challengesfacing the beef industry, with more than 80 people from the beef industry and research communities across Europe attending. The meeting wasorganised by AFBI with the University of Milan, funded by the UK Science and Innovation Network. The overall goal of the meeting was tostrengthen links and exchange knowledge between scientists and industry representatives across Europe on some of the key challenges facingthe beef industry. Four sessions of short talks addressed four key topics (Beef and Human Health, Eating Quality, Environment and welfare,Adding value throughout the supply chain), while two extended workshops provided delegates the opportunity to discuss the issues raised andcontribute their comments. Expert speakers from research and industry from Europe and also USA, China and Australia covered a wide range oftopics.
