99.9 PERCENT OF CHICKENS IN US ARE FACTORY FARMED

The biggest part of chicken production (99.9 percent) in the United States that are born and bred for meat live on factory farms, according to a report from animal advocacy organization Sentience Institute (SI).

The report additionally expresses that, regardless of customers’ convictions that animal items they expend originate from “compassionate” sources, 99 percent of all US meat originates from manufacturing plants.

By species, SI found that 70.4 percent of cows, 98.3 percent of pigs, 99.8 percent of turkeys, and 98.2 percent of egg-laying hens are raised on factory farms.

“In light of the constrained and living condition of cultivated fish, we gauge that basically all US fish ranches are appropriately depicted as manufacturing plant ranches, however, there is restricted information on fish ranch conditions and no institutionalized definition,” Sentience Institute prime supporter and creator Jacy Reese wrote in the investigation.

SI touched base at its figures utilizing information from 2017 discharged by the United States Department of Agriculture recently.
