This should be another clear revelation for everyone. Big corporate farming and ranching needs to end. Small family farms need to return and that is who we should be spending our hard earned money on. Every family that can support a garden in their backyard, should be growing their own. If you can have a chicken coop or another domestic farm animal, it may be worth considering. Distributed animals in smaller groups would be far less likely to be impacted by disease and disaster.
If only 1 in 4 households kept chickens, there would be no chicken industry needed.
And if people started raising rabbits, they could raise the same amount of meat as a cow in 1 year in a small hutch in the backyard. Even people in apartments can raise enough meat inside to cut their cost of meat from the store in half. All you need is a breeding trio, two doe's and a buck. They don't make any noise, they don't destroy property, they don't need much space, they don't smell (just dump their trays daily), and you can feed them grass and food scraps.
This is what we need. Decentralize and reduce reliance on big corporations and government. Big corporations do come up with innovative ideas and products, I'm not saying they aren't a possible positive entity, however they need to be checked and balanced by individualism and competition.
