Jul 4, 2017 · A report from the Humane Party analyzes the land-use, efficiency, and profitability of animal farming versus plant farming. The fact that animal agriculture is much more resource intensive than plant agriculture has become fairly well known among animal advocates.
The worldwide phase out of animal agriculture, combined with a global switch to a plant-based diet, would effectively halt the increase of atmospheric greenhouse gases for 30 years and give humanity more time to end its reliance on fossil fuels, according to a new study by scientists from Stanford University and the University of California, Ber...
Animal agriculture is the major driving force behind the double whammy of deforestation and desertification, the vicious cycle of destruction brought about by clearing and using land for grazing animals and crops. Animal agriculture turns forests and prairies into barren deserts. The process begins one of two ways.

Unlike many other farming systems, organic cows spend much of their lives outdoors where they can graze naturally on a diet of grass and clover. 1. By law, cows must be at pasture whenever conditions allow, over 200 days on average – ‘Zero-grazing’, where cows are kept indoors and fed cut grass or other feeds like soya, is banned under organic stan...
Organic pigs are kept in conditions that, as far as possible, allow them to express their natural behaviour. In practice, this means being kept in family groups with free access to fields. Most organic pigs will be outdoors all year round, though indoor housing is permitted in severe weather conditions, provided that there is plenty of straw beddin...
The big difference between organic and non-organic sheep farming are the methods used to prevent diseases. For example, on non-organic farms, lambs could be wormed preventatively every four to six weeks. Organic farmers however, are banned from the routine use of antibiotics and wormers, and must instead manage their flocks carefully to reduce dise...
It is important that the organic principles of health, ecology, fairness and care are applied to fish and shellfish farming, as well as to animals on land. A diverse range of aquatic species are produced in line with organic principles including many different fish species, seaweed and bivalves (mussels, oysters and clams). The Soil Association was...
