Cattle farming faces growing challenges as climate variability affects pasture availability, water resources, and herd health. Unpredictable rainfall patterns, extended droughts, and extreme weather events make traditional farming approaches increasingly risky. Future-proofing a cattle farm requires adopting strategies that improve resilience, reduce vulnerability, and sustain profitability under changing climatic conditions. Farmers must consider water management, forage diversification, herd selection, and adaptive management practices to ensure their operations remain productive and sustainable. By planning proactively, cattle farmers can protect their livelihoods and secure long-term success despite environmental uncertainty.
