Factory Farm Map
Submitted by akreider on Thu, 12/02/2010 - 18:24.
I think this blog is heading towards being all about maps!
This map features cows, pigs, and chickens (no sheep though) by county. It is interesting to see the difference between milk and cows for meat, or layers versus broilers. You can also see the increased concentration of factory farms. The farms are getting bigger!
When my Mom grew up on a farm they had their own chickens. Now a days, very few people do this.
I'm wondering if I could make a connection between this information and the Poultry Waste Incinerators that I'm tracking on the Energy Justice Map?
