The key is to farm or graze using regenerative methods. Current factory farming methods are detrimental to the soil and the rest of the environemnt in many ways. Bear in mind, however, that the largest contributor to greenhouse gasses is the healthcare sector, and that's going to be a tough nut to crack.
See my comment further down the thread going into detail about how regenerative grazing doesn't really work out as touted

In terms of emissions, healthcare is not a major source of emissions? The largest sector is energy followed by agriculture (of which animal agriculture is the majority). Most of healthcare emissions are from energy usage which is really a problem of renewable energy usage
