Biodynamic beef is from cattle reared using organic and biodynamic farming and animal rearing practices. This means that the farm, the feed and the health of the animals are monitored frequently, paddocks are not over grazed and pests are controlled without the use of chemicals. No growth hormones, strong drenches, artificial chemical fertilisers or pesticides are used on the farm. The animals have been raised on their mother?s milk and pasture on the farm. The animals are kept separate at the abbatoir and are hung for a week at the butchers making the meat even more tender.
