Beef production is one of the major drivers of land clearing in Queensland, Australia.
Beef farming in Australia is driving significant deforestation, including in the habitats of threatened species, according to a new satellite analysis.
An analysis of the imagery for Unearthed has identified 13,500 hectares of deforestation since 2018 – an area more than twice the size of Manhattan – across 57 beef cattle properties in Queensland, Australia.
