This public policy document, developed collaboratively by Colombian government entities, non-governmental organizations, trade associations, research institutes, and the private sector, defines the roadmap for modernizing and converting conventional livestock production systems toward sustainable, low-GHG-emission models adapted to climate change. The guidelines aim to improve the productivity, profitability, and competitiveness of the livestock value chain while conserving or restoring ecosystems and contributing to Colombia's goal of carbon neutrality by 2050. It is structured around three pillars: sustainability, productivity, and markets; governance and institutional framework; and financing.
