Jo Robinson’s new book Pasture Perfect explains the far-reaching benefits of choosing meat, eggs, and dairy products from animals raised on pasture. Drawing on five years of research, Robinson explains that products from grass-fed animals are safer and more nutritious than conventional ones, and why raising animals this way is also better for the environment. What’s more, the animals live low-stress, more natural lives. Chickens are free to graze on greens, scratch for insects, enjoy sun baths, and roost in comfort. Cattle, bison, dairy cows and lambs are truly contented as they graze on green pasture, breathe fresh air, and stay on the farm from birth until market.Robinson is the first to gather all the scientific evidence proving that pastured products are safer and more nutritious. As readers will learn, meat from grass-fed animals is free of hormones, antibiotics and mad cow disease. It is also higher in Vitamin E, beta-carotene, omega-3 fatty acids, and the newly discovered cancer-fighting fat called "CLA." Eggs and dairy products from pastured poultry and dairy cows have similar benefits.Pasture Perfect does more than explain the benefits of pastured products—it also helps you locate, store, and cook them. You will appreciate the 60 pages of recipes that are designed to bring out the tenderness and flavor of this highly nutritious, environmentally friendly food.Accurate and carefully referenced, Pasture Perfect is the definitive book on this greenest of industries.

Drawing on over 13 years of research, Robinson explains that products from grass-fed animals are safer for you and more nutritious than food from animals raised in feedlots. The animals benefit as well. Chickens are free to graze on greens, scratch for insects, enjoy sun baths, and roost in comfort. Cattle, bison, dairy cows and lambs are truly contented as they graze on green pasture, breathe fresh air, and stay on the farm from birth until market.

It requires less fossil fuel, enriches the soil with nutrients, and turns manure into a resource, not a waste problem.Robinson is the first investigative journalist to gather all the scientific evidence about the benefits of raising animals on pasture. As readers will learn, products from grass-fed animals are free of added hormones and antibiotics and are less likely to transmit foodborne pathogens. The food is also higher in Vitamin E, beta-carotene, omega-3 fatty acids, and CLA, a cancer-fighting fat.Pasture Perfect does more than explain the benefits of choosing pastured products it also helps you locate, store, and cook them. Sixty pages of recipes will show you how to bring out the tenderness and flavor of this highly nutritious, environmentally friendly food.Accurate and carefully researched, Pasture Perfect provides a concise overview of this greenest of all industries for consumers, policy makers, and farmers.
