We are on a good, European level. We are the fifth largest beef producer in Europe, and a major exporter, since 80% of Polish beef is exported. Of course, compared with the global market, we still have a long way to go, we will never reach the level of the USA or several other countries. Yet we have vast prospects for beef production and the development of this market. There are still about one million hectares of unused meadows or pastures. This is a perfect, so to speak, ‘field’ for development of beef cattle breeding in Poland,

The development of the Polish meat industry is also evidenced by the producers’ investments. Poland’s most advanced beef cutting plant will soon appear in Szczuczyn. It will stand out with a unique identification system, which will mark individual beef joints with QR codes enabling them to be tracked back to a particular animal. Apart from its contribution to ensuring consumer safety, it will also facilitate withdrawal of individual batches if any irregularities are found and reduce the amount of wasted food.
