Adaptations in both grazing and confined beef cattle systems require enhanced decision-making skills capable of integrating biophysical, social and economic considerations . Social learning networks that support integration of lessons learned from early adopters and involvement with science-based organisations can help enhance decision-making and climate adaptation planning . Pasture management adaptations for livestock production include deeper rooted pasture species in higher rainfall regions  and drought-tolerant species . Soil and land management practices are important in ensuring soils maintain their supporting and regulating services . Adaptations in the primary sector in New Zealand are now positioned within the requirements of the National Policy Statement on Freshwater . Adaptations to manage heat stress in livestock include altering the breeding calendar, providing shade and sprinklers, altering nutrition and feeding times and more heat-tolerant animal breeds .
