Gentle reminder that factory farming is a recent development, not a fact of life. Good talk. Now let’s get to work.

Cool company Biotrampil offering both 100% plant-based meat, and 30/70 hybrid animal/plant based meats to Malaysian flexitarians! Excited to see how these products do.

Hey @SacramentoKings – #BetterMeatCo is taking a novel approach to making food more #sustainable by changing the pre-existent ingredient market, not just putting out a new product. Consider this my vote for the #KingsCapitalize contest

@Lewis_Bollard Any speculation about the cause?

For anyone asking: "Will it blend?"#blendedburger #plantbased https://t.co/RBEWDY2BIk @BetterMeatCo

If every burger in America had 30% less beef, could we de-escalate the intensification of animal farming? (Skeptics welcome) https://t.co/RBEWDY2BIk @Reducetarian @WorldResources @blenditarian @CIACulinary

There's no place like home, eh @SarahTaber_bww? Nightmare nitrogen scenario in #NorthCarolina. #poultryproblems https://t.co/qkV4lH7GBK

Not a typo: "82 million poultry are packed between four million pigs" in just *two* #NorthCarolina counties. Holy #biohazard. #CAFO #poultryproblems @EWGFoodNews https://t.co/qkV4lH7GBK

The most literal metaphor possible for the quest for unsustainable and shortsighted "growth" in agriculture.

Why is animal ag the only industry where we view competition as a negative thing for the economy? #meatmonopoly #HB2607 #WarrenLove @theintercept @ZaidJilani @ggreenwald https://t.co/XDPxjiAFun

just sitting here, thinking about that time when big agribusiness called legal protections for small farmers “controversial” https://t.co/BQETVWrDBi

"Contract" farmers are given only slightly more room to act as independent business entities than their chickens are given space to walk around. i.e. – little to none.

[Noah Smith 🐇🇺🇸🇺🇦🇹🇼 @Noahpinion]

Contracting is an easy way for many companies to get around labor laws in the U.S.

Here's how some people in the agricultural industry are trying to fight that: https://t.co/TZQAA7onXu
