By definition any meat coming from a calf who has not yet been weaned is called veal. Calves are separated from their mothers a few days after taking their first few meals (so they can get the anti-body rich colostrum contained in the mother's milk which is produced up to a couple of weeks after birthing) and they are contained in stalls with other baby calves who are only fed milk and grain. This makes their meat lighter in color than adult bovine (cow or steer) flesh and supposedly more tender.

How does veal farming impact animal welfare and sustainability in the food industry?

Veal farming has a significant impact on animal welfare and sustainability in the food industry. Calves raised for veal are often kept in confined spaces, leading to stress and discomfort. This can result in health issues and a lower quality of life for the animals. Additionally, the production of veal requires a large amount of resources, such as water and feed, which can strain the environment and contribute to sustainability concerns. Overall, veal farming raises ethical and environmental questions that need to be addressed in order to improve animal welfare and promote sustainability in the food industry.
