Yes a single blip where there was a 1% decrease in beef without a corresponding drop in GhG that in that same year they had a bunch of cows that were grown to maturity and then slaughtered.

I went a step further though I downloaded the CSV files and ran a correlation on them using excels CORREL function and they had a 0.98911 correlation

it’s a 1% drop in total meat production. beef is just a portion of that. The whole reason for the blip though, was beef production.
