Debate: Factory Farms - Good or Bad
Side: Good- Cheap and Efficient

As someone who enjoys fast food as much as the next guy, factory farming is something that this nation needs. We need it to hold us together, and feed all of us in a cost efficient, and fast way. Although the disadvantages are costly to our livestock, it’s the fast and easiest way to feed us. With the introduction of factory farming, farm’s produce things such as; vegetables, fruits, and poultry, in a less expensive way. This means that less fortunate people can afford a balances and nutritious diet. Also, in factory farming, the large productivity of food is possible with less amount of land. This leads to economies of scale and allows us to make more food, using less land, which saves us tones of money. We can produce high yields, increased profits, lower prices, and in terms of the latter, it is a cheaper prices, healthy food for the poor.

Factory farming helps provide jobs to people in need of them because it is such a huge industry. With all the animals they have, they have the ability to make food cheaply and efficiently, and still have money left over to pay their workers and make profit. If they have extra money they sometimes invest in the communities in which they operate in, as a thank you type thing.

Factory farming is important because it alows us to have mcdonalds and other fast food places. Also it alows us to get are food quicker and more of it. It also makes food cheaper in supermarkets like shaws and stop and shop. It helps us get milk and alot of it very easily. It allows us to feed large cities very easily, and they give people jobs. They invest in the communities they are located in.

factory farming is cheap and efficient. It processes meat that is very cheap and is quick to make. With all the people in our country, having cheap processed food is good. Why do you think McDonalds is able to sell cheeseburgers for a dollar? because of all the meat that is processed in facotry frams.
Debate: Factory Farms - Good or Bad

The making of the meat may be cheap and quick but they way the animals are treated is poorly. They are raised to be killed and at birth they are injected with hormones that make them grow to be big to fast which results in an extremely short life.

Factory farming produces more food, faster and cheaper. Since the industry is so big it provides many jobs for people. It allows us to produce and buy meat at a reasonable price. Since it is so efficient, the factories put money into the communities they operate in. Without factory farming we would be paying a lot more because there wouldn’t be as much food produced

Keep in mind that factory farmed animals live life in the dark, crowded with thousands of others in one room, have their bodies mutilated, are constantly sick, are separated from family and prevented from living normal lives, and die prematurely so meat prices can stay low. Is a slightly steeper price too much to ask to spare animals from that? http://ffacoalition.org/media/

Factory farms allows us to feed the world's population. Technologies are coming on line that produce artificial meat.. If you want to get rid of factory farms, then you either have to wait for those new technologies to mature, or you have to reduce the world's population. I am for anything that improves rush hour traffic ;)

Actually, factory farms do the opposite. By sending corn and other plants through farmed animals like cows, the food supply is "diluted." Without factory farming, that grain could go to third world countries and local poor instead of using ten times the grain for the same amount of food. Factory farming is the exact opposite of "efficient."http://naturalsociety.com/factory-farms-the-only-way-to-â€˜feed-the-worldâ€™-not-so-argues-science-paper/

Poultry and farms are parts of our living and in fact we often see on our table the end-result. Factory farms, should be checked however, by certain government department and monitor if they are complying and a require regulations. There are farms today, that are recognize by WHO as well as the environmental safety board in providing better manufacturing and eco friendly guidelines. I guess this rules should only apply to those operating underground and hides from any taxation concerns.Regards.Rodney of http://caldwells.com/

New Zealand has a very green image and it is well known for having disease free and safe meat. I can't say that factory farming is worse than free-ranged or organic. It creates just as must pollution for the environment as free-ranged and can supply a cheaper option for meat. Saying that factory farming is 'cruel' is kind of silly because don't like animal cruelty then you shouldn't be eating meat. Either you justify how it is moral to raise an animal to kill it or you justify way it isn't and then you condemn the whole meat industry, not just factory farms. The meat that is sold has no antibiotics in it as there is a withdrawal period where farmers cannot give antibiotics before slaughter. Plus, they don't give the same antibiotics as humans have so we cannot become resistant to diseases anyway from eating meat. Overall, it makes not logically sense for farmers to treat animals poorly as they are part of their business and it is their job to look after and raise their flock. So until we all become vegans, don't tell me that factory farming is bad. Farming is farming and more people are eating meat so we need more of it

If your definition of good is that they are cheap and efficient, then yes. They produce a lot of food, which feeds most of the population, and are very cost effective due to the limited space. Without them, the human population would probably have levelled by now, making it incapable of increasing, so it has technically given life to many throughout the world. If it were used in every country, there probably wouldn't be the problem of famine, but many countries don't have the resources, organisation or money to be able to use this.

People often argue how factory farm produce cheap food, but those cheap food were made with cows that feed on chemical and antibiotic, and will eventually create many long term diseases. However people often forget what really affect our health is diet and exercise. A good diet and exercise can decrease the chance of getting heart disease, cancer, liver breakdown, diabetes, etc. Even if people are not eating meat from factory, they are still not going to be really healthy because normal american's food pyramid were complete upside down. They consume diary and butter the most, meat and bread the second, and vegetable and fruit the least. People who live in city or work in business job tend to exercise less, and that is also one reason people who live in city are suffering long term diseases.

Though factory farming might be cruel and inhumane to animals. It is still cheaper quicker and meets the demands of society today. The amount of meat manufactured in a factory farm will be about three times more than one done in a normal a farm. With the population increasing as quick as it does, we need these quick, cheap, efficient and easy ways to provide food for society.

Factory farms increase the risk of pathogens like E. coli and Salmonella that cause foodborne illness in people. Also small farms have been driven out by factory farms. The factory farms pollute the air and water nearby.
Debate: Factory Farms - Good or Bad

That is an invalid argument because you can get sick from anything. Girls get sick just going tanning. You can get sick because someone breathed in your oatmeal. E. Coli can get spread easily anyway; it isn't just factory farming that causes it.

Many towns get E. coli in their tap water all the time. Many don't have factory farms operating in them.

Can you please clarify? I have never seen any news about e. coli in tap water… Evidence please!!!
Debate: Factory Farms - Good or Bad

Yes, there are instances of e.coli in water without factory farms present. However, the fact is that there are more instances of pollutants and bacteria when factory farms operate nearby.
Debate: Factory Farms - Good or Bad
Side: Bad - Pollution and Cruelty

Yes, you can get sick almost anywhere. But factory farming creates not just diseases, but "superbugs," highly evolved, antibiotic-resistant bacteria that pose a real threat to human health. Of course factory farming doesn't cause sickness-- it just makes it exponentially more dangerous. http://www.foodandwaterwatch.org/pressreleases/superbugs-on-the-factory-farm/
Debate: Factory Farms - Good or Bad
Side: Bad - Pollution and Cruelty

Sure you can get sick from anything but if someone is coughing and sneezing do you get in their face no you move away. So if we have factory farms that pollute or water and pose diseases do we allow it or remove it. Again Weldon you seem to make statements that you do not support but only your (cheap) alternative to food. Next time you want to eat just throw it in the toilet first. I will give you the food. It will be cheap but eat it all as you have little concern where it comes from.

Debate: Factory Farms - Good or Bad

Factory farming is very cruel. Confinement to the point at which suffocation is normal. Many animals never touch the ground or see direct sunlight. They cannot behave in natural ways: e.g. chickens cannot spread their wings or peck the ground, pigs cannot root or nest. The extremes are truly horrible. Chickens are bred selectively and genetically modified until the birds cannot stand up and their bones cannot support their weight. Battery hens are crammed into tiny cages and to stop them doing damage when they attack each other (as they inevitably do in such unnatural conditions) their beaks and toes are cut off. Roosters are killed at birth by strangulation or asphyxiation in a bag. Pigs, highly social animals, are kept singly in cages they can’t turn around in – and a number of diseases are very common because of the cramped conditions. Veal calves are deliberately and permanently squashed so that muscle growth is inhibited and the flesh is tender. They are fed on an iron-deficient diet so their flesh is pale.

Actually, a vegetarian diet would feed far more people than a carnivorous one due to the fact that it takes four times as much grain to feed the cattle that humans eat than it would take to feed a person who ate the grain directly. If people ate the grain directly instead of filtering through a living animal than we would be able to feed four times as many people off of the grain that was being fed to these tortured souls. So actually while it may appear to be a fast and efficient way of creating food for the masses it is actually wasteful and not to mention highly detrimental to our health.
Debate: Factory Farms - Good or Bad

I have a much better way and it would lower food cost. Restore the local farms and let them supply the communities. Make it worth while to farm and you will see generations become involved. Food today has skyrocketed because we ship it all over the pace. Florida raises beef but yet little is kept here on store shelves unless its a butcher shop. Corporate food has killed the butcher what is left, our produce is genetically grown and comes from countries all over like Mexico and Argentina. Milk is shipped and already days old before it reaches the shelves. America can feed America we just need to support them and stop supporting factory farms and the cost will lower. The consumer will demand it. It is people like you who will shove anything in his mouth as long as it feeds your hunger that don't stick to their guns and refuse the corporate food. I don't by produce or meat from Walmart as they buy Monsanto grown produce and they have gassed their meats with the same gas that comes out of you cars tailpipe. I shop my local farm stand that grows none treated veggies and I buy meat that is grass fed locally grown. I don't eat preserved or prepared foods as I don't support such operations. All it takes is will power and we could change the landscape but then again we have Weldon.

There are many reason as to why factory farming is harmful to animals and the earth. The animals are treated extremely unfairly because the factory workers do not care and are working at a fast pace in order to make a greater profit. Every 24 hours in the U.S 90,000 cows and calves are slaughtered. The animals that are killed are raised to be slaughtered, which are treated with hormones to maximize the growth and antibiotics that are injected in them to prevent diseases. Not only do the animals suffer from factory farming but so does the environment, in the aspect that the land is constantly being used and not getting any time to rest to replenish the soil plus to much manure and chemical fertilizers are being used to make land better.http://www.sustainabletable.org/issues/environment/ http://www.organicconsumers.org/foodsafety/shortlist031604.cfm http://www.aspca.org/fight-animal-cruelty/farm-animal-cruelty/what-is-a-factory-farm.aspx

Industrially produced food appears to be inexpensive, but the pricetag doesn’t reflect the actual costs that we taxpayers bear. Factory farms pollute communities and adversely affect public health, thereby increasing medical costs for those living near such farms costs that are often shouldered by public budgets. Taxpayers fund government subsidies, which go primarily to large industrial farms. Jobs are lost and wages driven down, as corporate consolidation bankrupts small businesses and factory farms pay unethically low wages for dangerous, undesirable work.
