Why are so many people against modern farming?
adanna asked:
Regardless of whether you are a vegan, vegetarian, or omnivore, a person’s gotta eat. Modern farming techniques use technology to feed the hungry masses in the most efficient manner possible. So, to get the highest yield, a farmer’s gotta put a fertilizer on the crops. (Fertilizer is a general term that encompasses man-made and natural.) A lot of people seem to have a problem w/this, although, w/proper management, it’s perfectly safe. (FYI: Consumers use more fertilizer than the entire agriculture industry on their lawns n stuff.) Also, they put pesticides on their crop or use GM organisms. Judging from the organic movement, people don’t like this either. Lots of animals are slaughtered everyday in the U.S. Smithfield slaughters over 100,000 pigs/day, but I don’t think about that when I eat my bacon in the morning. There is a lot of controversy over how animals get treated on farms, too. I really don’t think most animals get treated badly on large farms. If you think so, would you rather eat locally grown & raised?
