Case Study: Wayne Farms

Every year, an average American will consume approximately one hundred-twenty six pounds of meat. This meat can be traced back to factory farms where the animals are kept to be tortured to turn into a product for the appetite of humans. The terrible treatment these animals are forced to endure is the outcome of the greed and want for a faster production of their product. The industry of factory farming works to maximize the output of the meat while maintaining low costs,but will sadly always comes at the animals’ expense.

I've personal contacted the West Virginia Farm Bureau and shared why I believe Sunday hunting should be passed!!! I guess they don't want me to put up hay when the sun shines (which maybe on a Sunday) or feed my cows/horse on Sunday??? Anyway, when you have such a strong legislation voice as the WV Farm Bureau does as it clearly state's on their website it could kill our chances of being allowed to hunt on our own land and land our hard earned tax dollars pay for. With the WV Farm Bureau main goals should be leaning towards the farming industry and bills aimed at local farmers, I'm not even sure why they have their foot in this? So, along with hitting up the judicial committee members that I will post below again and which can be found at

The allegations took place at Wayne Farm on 4-29-16, around 9:38am. Thomas was on break when Jakaja opened the vehicle door to ask him if he knew her parents. When he recognized the vehicle, he went to security officer Mr. Moffett. Mr. Moffett went into the plant and got the lady whose vehicle it belongs to. She told the police that it was her niece. Jenette dropped her children off at school, and stated she forgot Jakaja was in the vehicle because she was in the back asleep. Jakaja is usually not with Jenette. It was a Yukon vehicle. All the windows were up, and the doors were shut. At the time of intake, Jakaja was taken to school, and Jenette was not

Due to the fact that farm workers don’t have basic labor protections, such as not being guaranteed a wage, and due to the fact that the pesticides they are in contact with results in health problems, their lives and health are constantly in jeopardy. Farmworkers are excluded from many labor laws including The Fair Labor Standards Act, and this exclusion leads to “[them having] no right to overtime pay” and “not [being] entitled to a minimum wage” (“Labor Laws-.”). This exclusion and its effects cause major damage to the lives of farmworkers because it lets farmworker employers under pay them, no matter the amount of work they do. Since they are receiving a wage lower

Farms Owner, Joel Salatin, regards society's continuous demand of specific wants from grown food, "fatter and cheaper" chickens and meat from cows, but they're not too eager in knowing what goes in those animals to achieve the demand. While Salatin uses some logos, providing information facts about the process the food industry goes through in order to achieve food companies' standards, Salatin makes better use of ethos as he provides us the portrayal of cows consuming self-sufficient grass; their manure goes to the grass and they eat the grass. He completes his ethos statements by providing a USDA reference, when USDA threatened to shut them down because of the unsanitary-open air shelter they're using to process chickens.

While there are many significant challenges presented to dairy farmers including making production environmentally friendly, competitive products, and consolidation, I belvie that the shift towards mega-farms is the largest potential threat. As we advance in technology we also advance in productivy, moreover, this can be harmful to dairy farmers. Mega-farms allow better technology to become more competitive and increase more product output. With this advantage, these mega-farms dominate the market and gain significantly finicailly. While an increase in production from a fiscal stand point may appear positive it diminishes local dairy farmers and they can simply not compete with mega-farms economically. While mega-farms face there own problems

67-68). Concerned farmers argue that the major slaughterhouses, producers, and packers are tied into the USDA politically. The USDA regulations don’t serve the public or the small farms; however hold the hands of the capitalists (Farmageddon). These Corporations claim their mission and commitments are sustainable by using catching slogans such as “Good food. Responsibly!”(Smithfield). Unfortunately, the Wal-Mart of the meat industry, Smithfield, contradicts their mission statement by saying, "To be a trusted, respected and ethical food industry leader that excels at bringing delicious and nutritious meat and specialty food products to millions every day while setting industry standards for corporate social responsibility (Smithfield)”. Smithfield has been involved in scandalous animal abuse cases and are major contributors to unhealthy environmental conditions (Peta). Capitalism is a major hurdle to overcome in factory farming but with speaking out and educating our public solutions can be made

This industrial farming isn’t just cruel. It can also make you sick. Factory farms are making e-coli, Salmonella, and obesity become hazards from ingesting diseased meat from these farms. Factory farms are producing 500 more calories per person than they did 25 years ago. These atrocious dilemmas in abattoirs are clear safety hazards. It is entirely possible that men, children, or women can easily contract a disease from the senseless and unsympathetic reasoning of the slaughterhouses.

In 1932 at The University of Kansas four women-Agnes Thompson, Amida Stanton, Rose Morgan, and Hannah Oliver made it their mission to designate an area known to many at KU called the Prairie Acre, as a space to be protected for future generations. The plot of land that is located on the southeast corner of campus behind Blake hall is the only vestige of native prairie that has been untouched by modern landscaping and maintenance techniques. The importance of preserving and restoring the prairie has been a conversation that has been ongoing for more than 83 years now. Faculty and alumni worked hard to promote the protection of this plot of land in the 1940’s but like many projects during that time, the focus on preserving the prairie acre took
