Answers
Answer:
Factory farming is a way of rearing animals for the largescale production of dairy, meat etc. Tens of thousand animals are kept in a narrow metal caged which affects their health as it spreads disease from one animal to other.
Use of injections various antibiotics to boost milk supply and making them pregnant forcefully are inhuman ways used in factory farming.
Factory farming produces huge quantity of waste and harmful gases triggering air pollution, land and water pollution which ultimately leads to climatic change and global warming.
Animal waste which produces 1 million tones of manure per day contaminates nearby water bodies , crops.
Methane which is a green house gas is emitted from cows and pigs. Use of antibiotics in animals to enhance dairy and meat products also contaminates crops, water as they come out undigested through their urine and manure.
Hence, just to get dairy and meat products in reasonable price we should not let this inhuman process go on. It is affecting environment , animal health and human health too.
