Beefing up the Beef Transport System

This project aims at integrating a large multidisciplinary team, and starting a thorough data collection on the beef cattle infrastructure and the interdependent transport system. Immediate outcomes of this GFSI project will be (1) development of a synergetic collaborative team in the multidisciplinary topic of critical interdependent infrastructures applied to the food and agricultural sector, (2) achievement of a strategic advantage toward a larger project concerning interdependent beef production system, and (3) integration with other related programs at Kansas State University, such as the Secure Beef Supply Initiative and the Food Science Institute.
