Factory farms; breeding grounds for pandemics

[nzoomed]

It's an old article but still a good reminder of how good we have it here. We can learn from the problems caused by over-intensification elsewhere and continue farming our healthy grass-fed stock.

We are very lucky indeed.
Give me grass fed any day. I remember watching a video of a butcher comparing the same cuts of meat between grass fed and indoor grain fed beef, there was quite a clear difference.
I dont think many people in NZ actually appreciate this.
In the US, I believe that the majority of their beef is still farmed outdoors, but it is slowly changing. In Europe however, particularly the UK, we are seeing much more beef produced from indoor farms.
