Provacuno, the most prominent beef association in Spain, has been gaining recognition worldwide for its high-quality, natural beef products. Spain in Europe is home to more than 130,000 livestock farms, with around 7 million head of cattle, of which 2.2 million are slaughtered annually. Spain, as one of the leading beef producers in Europe, has a strong competitive advantage due to its strict feeding regulations and environmentally-friendly practices.
- Feeding Practices in Spanish Cattle Farming
European cattle are primarily fed with natural fodder without additives to accelerate their growth, resulting in meat that is free of antibiotics and growth hormones. In Spain, 90% of cattle are grain-fed, while only 10% are grass-fed. The animals are primarily fed with the highest quality cereals such as barley, oats, wheat, corn, and oil seeds, which are free of antibiotics and growth hormones.

European grain-fed beef from Spain is known for its tender texture and rich flavor. The animals are primarily fed with high-quality and additives-free cereals. This feeding regimen produces meat with a marbled texture and delicate taste. Additionally, the meat is low in fat, making it a healthier choice. European grain-fed beef from Spain is a popular choice in the global market due to its delicate taste, as well as its focus on animal welfare and sustainability.
