Eggribusiness - EGGS HIDDEN RISKS Did you know that excessive cholesterol is only one among many hazards posed by egg consumption? To keep millions of hens alive in the polluted egg factory environment, the industry relies upon antibiotics, pesticides, and other hazardous chemicals. The toxic dangers these hidden ingredients pose to consumers make the health hazards associated with cholesterol seem minor by comparison. You've seen the egg industry' slick advertisements for "farm fresh" eggs. But most eggs don't come from real farms. Today's eggs come from huge indoor factories where literally millions of hens are kept in most inhumane, disease-ridden conditions imaginable. Can eggs from drugged and diseased hens possibly be good for consumers as the advertisements claim? Certainly not. Leading public health professionals across the country warn that the wholesale misuse of antibiotics is creating hazardous strains of bacteria, such as salmonella. Many of these antibiotic resistant "super bugs" can be lethal to human beings. Insecticides are not only sprayed around the hens' cages, but are actually mixed in the feed given to the hens. "Feed through" insecticides, many of which are illegal, make the excrement that piles up in and around the cages toxic to flies and other insects. As debate rages as to what constitutes an "acceptable" level of toxins in eggs - hens, human beings, and the environment continue to be poisoned.

and a sales volume that has more than tripled ..." Lindsay Howerton
Columbia, Missouri Ron Perry
on his farm near Chillicothe, Missouri. Photo by Nic Paget-Clarke.
Ron Perry smiles his typical mischievous smile. His fingers hooked into his overall pockets, he stands in front of his 35-sow operation, five miles northeast of Chillicothe, Missouri. His hat says it all, "The Poor Farm." Perry, along with other hog farmers around the state, foresaw the bleak future of the pork industry. Even in 1994, there were unmistakable signs for these farmers that concentration within agriculture was about to occur. Hog corporations were rapidly increasing in size, shouting the warning cry to farmers that times were about to change. Perry, being a member of the Missouri Rural Crisis Center, went to the non-profit organization for help. Other independent producers in north Missouri followed, and so began Patchwork Family Farms. Patchwork Family Farms has withstood the violent downturns in a volatile market were family farmers are struggling to compete. This project has proven to be a viable alternative that can give independent producers a guaranteed price that meets or exceeds cost of production while keeping consumers' prices competitive. Patchwork Family Farms is catching the attention of many hog producers around the state with its fair prices, sustainable growing practices and a sales volume that has more than tripled since December of 1998.

Whether they raise wheat, peaches, beef or potatoes, the Canadians who run our family farms have sometimes struggled to keep pace with the demand for cheap, abundant food. Threats to the family farm have ranged from the high cost of land and crippling interest rates to corporate competition and encroaching cities. Some farmers have adapted and thrived, but for others the strain has proven too much. CBC Archives looks at the evolving family farm.

ICRP Discussion Points:
Family Farms vs. Hog Factories
For more information,
please e-mail Bruce St John ( bcstjohn@mtco.com
of Illinois Citizens for Responsible Practices (ICRP)
(Also see the ICRP Legislative Proposals
and the Fall 1997 ISA report on the Illinois hog industry.)
Below are 11 discussion points which can be used to explain why large-scale swine production facilities are very different from traditional family farms, and therefore necessitate a much higher level of rules and regulations. These points can be used to help focus discussion and dialogue at meetings, and they also make excellent hand-outs. The full citations for the articles and studies footnoted in the discussion points can be found in the ICRP Bibliography
1. Economic Development
Does corporate farming provide rural economic development? 1) Big producers displace more jobs than they create!
A University of Missouri study (a) found that independent producers create three times as many jobs as corporate contract production. For each 12,000 slaughter hogs produced under corporate contract, the study estimated that 9.44 jobs would be created (4.25 on the farm and 5.19 in the community) but that 27.97 would be displaced (12.6 on the farm and 15.37 off the farm).
2) Big corporate livestock operations are less likely to do business locally than are small and medium sized family farmers!
