Policy recommendations for sustainable livestock farming in South Korea: review.

This study aimed to investigate the transition towards sustainable livestock farming, emphasizing the role of policy instruments, challenges in implementation, and future directions. There are many ways to help move towards sustainable livestock farming. The primary methods in major Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries are regulation, economic incentives, and supportive measures. The most important tools are regulation and financial support. This study looked at the effectiveness of these tools, the role of government in supporting sustainable livestock, and ways to improve these policies. It also discussed using smart technology for sustainable farming, introducing a certification system for sustainable livestock products, increasing public interest and willingness to pay for sustainable products, training future experts, and creating partnerships between the public and private sectors. The study concluded that effective policy implementation requires a combination of regulation and support. Necessary regulations should be applied with enough time and agreement from society, even if the livestock industry opposes. Support policies are currently scattered and not well-connected, so they need to be comprehensively linked to sustainable livestock farming. It is important to have a consistent policy system that sets measurable goals, provides budget support, and evaluates performance step by step to achieve the goal of sustainable livestock farming in South Korea.
