Red meat nutrition marketing

Promise

Sustain domestic demand for red meat; research the impact of red meat diets on health and wellbeing.

Progress

Increased demand for red meat; increased domestic consumer expenditure; increased knowledge of health benefits associated with including red meat in the diet.

Performance

The $43 million invested by MLA's Nutrition program (2001-07) maintained consumer and HCP confidence in red meat despite ongoing challenges, and is likely to have contributed substantially to increasing demand for beef and lamb.
