The PAI Group - Beef and Lamb

The leading beef and lamb standard for farms, Red Tractor-Beef & Lamb (previously ABM) certification allows English producers to demonstrate that food safety, animal health & welfare and environmental care meet national agreed levels of best practice.

Beef and lamb produced from Red Tractor-Beef & Lamb farms form part of an assured chain of supply that allows products to carry the Red Tractor logo.

A successful assessment by PAI will ensure that your Red Tractor-Beef & Lamb certificate is issued by a widely respected and recognised certification body using only assessors who are highly experienced in your industry sector.
