I only wish that it was true but unfortunately there is nothing to make
up about all the horrible cruelty associated with factory farming.


but the only evidence you have is what comes from those who make a living
out of selling that story
These who somehow neglect to mention that all farms get cross compliance
inspections from government agencies on a regular basis, and also they
neglect to mention that if they have a case, then the RSPCA will be round
there pretty damn quick to deal with it, and the RSPCA enthusiastically
prosecutes.


What percentage of the national herd/flock is reared intensively
(don't see how Herdwicks or Welsh Blacks,for instance, could be
"factory farmed")
