description In the mid-2020s, beef cattle producers in the Charolais region are facing a multidimensional crisis. Although they play a key role in landscape preservation, biodiversity, and carbon sequestration, these farmers are seeing their economic model falter. Their production units generate very low amounts of added value, making agricultural income extremely dependent on public subsidies. This economic precariousness is exacerbated by socio-environmental pressures that erode the very meaning of their profession: increased vulnerability to climate change, difficult working conditions, and growing criticism of meat consumption. However, these difficulties are not merely temporary. They are rooted in a logic of industrialization of the supply chain and the liberalization of agricultural policies, where increasing herd sizes has not been accompanied by value creation. Through an investigation conducted in Saône-et-Loire and Nièvre, this book analyzes the crisis and examines the conditions necessary to overcome it, exploring attempts at change, both individual and collective. The book is intended for the scientific community, professionals in the beef industry, and all those involved in maintaining livestock farming in rural areas.
