Bryce Cunningham, managing director of Mossgiel Organic Dairy, stated: 'People are looking for flavour, transparency and something that feels closer to the farm. We cannot sell fully raw milk widely in the UK, so brewed milk is our answer to consumer curiosity. It makes fantastic coffee and incredibly rich porridge.'
Ammonia emissions are dangerous to human health and the environment. In the UK, agriculture is responsible for 89% of national emissions of the nitrogen-based gas used to produce fertilisers and released from livestock manure.
The public comment period is an important opportunity for producers across Canada to review the draft Code and provide feedback on how it applies to their operations. Producer perspectives from across the country help ensure the Code reflects the diversity of Canadian beef production systems and remains practical for producers who raise cattle.
While bacon and eggs only made their way to the breakfast table in the 1920s, the processed meat has been part of the American diet since pigs first arrived on the continent in the 1500s. These days the average American eats around 18 pounds of bacon annually.
Our goal in starting this business was to build a reliable, sustainable company. We wanted to deliver high-quality frozen fruit products while creating long-term value for our partners and community. We are direct producers - from the farm to the table.
East Coast oysters are known and loved over the world for the clean minerality and distinctive salinity, which is reflective of the cold Atlantic waters where they come from. Although Maine and Maryland get a lot of credit, oysters are present along the continent's entire eastern coast, as far north as Canada's Prince Edward Island all the way down to South Florida.
For pork lover, there's nothing quite as irresistible as the salty, savory pull of Virginia country ham. Whether it's to elevate mouth-watering ham sandwich, for pea and ham soup, or a good old-fashioned honey-glazed roast recipe, there's no shortage of quality cured pork in the Old Dominion State.
For someone aiming to end the global livestock industry, Bruce Friedrich begins his new book called Meat in disarming fashion: I'm not here to tell anyone what to eat. You won't find vegetarian or vegan recipes in this book, and you won't find a single sentence attempting to convince you to eat differently. This book isn't about policing your plate.
Nitrites are generally used as a preservative in bacon and other processed foods, and the U.K.'s Food Standards Agency published a report last fall on the health risks of consuming nitrites. As Dr. James Cooper, the agency's Deputy Director of Food Policy, stated, '[W]hile nitrates and nitrites can form compounds called nitrosamines, many of which are carcinogenic, the link to serious health problems like cancer in humans remains inconclusive.'
Police do not know if the meat was intended "to feed wildlife, to lure animals for hunting, or some other unknown reason," the department said. "Hunting on conservation land and in Newton parks is prohibited under Massachusetts General Law Chapter 131, Section 59, which forbids hunting or harming wildlife on any reservation, park, common, or land owned or leased by the Commonwealth of its municipalities, except under very limited, authorized circumstances," Newton police wrote in a Facebook post.
A group of ranches and dairies in the Point Reyes National Seashore has about two months left to close down under an agreement with the Nature Conservancy. The federal park announced on Jan. 8, 2025, that six dairies and six beef ranches operating there would cease operations within 15 months following a confidential legal settlement with environmental organizations that had long sought to ban agricultural uses of the park.
Large production sheds, known as "confinements," hold up to 2,500 sows, which are pumped full of antibiotics to help them survive their cramped, windowless existence. CAFOs generate colossal amounts of manure waste, forming gargantuan anaerobic lagoons that foul the air and pollute local water supplies around the farm.
The CRSB Certified Producer Incentive will provide a $400 payment in 2026 to eligible beef producers who maintain active certification by June 30, 2026, or who were certified at any point between January 1, 2025, and June 30, 2026. Producers must hold a valid certificate from a CRSB-approved certification body and meet all qualifying cattle requirements to receive the payment.
In 2019, the plant-based meat industry experienced explosive growth. Investors poured hundreds of millions of dollars into companies like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods. Fast-food giants like McDonald's and Burger King rolled out plant-based burgers nationwide. Even celebrities like Snoop Dogg and Katy Perry backed the movement.
According to their website, the target is to ensure that by 2030, all of their beef in America and Canada "will be sourced from suppliers that prohibit the routine use of medically important antibiotics". This is a part of Wendy's commitment to sourcing beef responsibly - a long-standing mission that dates back to 2001, when they set up the Animal Welfare Council.
One of those enduring rumors is that Arby's roast beef comes to the store in liquid form, but that is a totally false allegation that was debunked years ago. The reality is that Arby's roast beef simply comes prepacked in a bag of liquid brine.
When you think of farming, what ingredients do you generally associate with a successful harvest? The basics certainly come to mind: fertile soil, plenty of sunlight and lots of water. But there are other variables that can also mean the difference between a crop of healthy fruits and vegetables and a large heap of organic waste. And it turns out that one of those variables is a very small hawk.
My career as an agronomist required me to take scientific research and apply that knowledge, to assist farmers by helping them solve problems and increase their farms profitability. The ag industry relies on research to continue to solve the ever-changing problems that farmers face. Today my farm business employs management practices that have come directly from the Lacombe Research and Development Centre, this has improved my farms resilience and profitability.
