Modern methods are not modern if it is not guided by ethical and humane policies.
Factory farming methods and its negligence towards animal welfare and consequently animal and human health is probably one of the worst problems facing our world. Most factory farms don’t adhere to modern day policies regarding animal and environmental welfare. These farms are steered for maximum profit which makes those behind the wheel blind towards inhumane treatment of animals. We, the consumers who pay for these "farmed" products, have no clue of what is going on behind the high walls of these farms.
"more needs to be done by lending agencies, governments, non-governmental organizations, and individual consumers. Changing the meat economy will require a rethinking of our relationship with livestock and the price we’re willing to pay for safe, sustainable, humanely-raised food." (Danielle Nierenberg)
