i mean, that’s an option. Although after having done some reading, it seems like this was more in cohorts with like a million chickens being killed due to swine flue or whatever the fuck happens in industrial bird farming.
Either way, industrial farming is just not a very good system at handling anything even remotely shenanigan worthy.
Yeah chickens dying or quarantine concerns would be real shit, but ‘concerns of overproduction’ when a natural resource isn’t being wasted (the chickens were still being kept alive, right?) Is just so dumb to me.
it sounds dumb, but it happens. Apple farmers in rural america were about to lose their shit after producing way too many apples. The state of west virginia, iirc decided to buyback all of the excess. And donated it to foodbanks or something.
It’s literally lost revenue for large scale farming. That’s just how shitty it is.
Sure but why not just give the farmers what they needed and pickle the extra or something?

Capitalist nonsense, and good on west Virginia for doing basically the right thing.
pretty much
