Left: A diverse mix of cattle graze openly at Ayrshire Farm, a Cornucopia rated, 5-steak farm on our Organic Beef Scorecard. In contrast, factory farm cattle live in poor, overcrowded feedlot conditions. The dairy and beef industries are linked: your ground beef may have come from a dairy cow. When you choose highly rated beef from Cornucopia’s Organic Beef Scorecard, you’re supporting farms like the one pictured on the left.
