Did you know, U.S. dairy and beef cattle well-being is achieved through industry-led animal welfare programs that guide producers towards continuous improvement using science-based practices and welfare standards. This ensures humane treatment of cattle throughout the supply chain while producing high-quality beef and dairy products for consumers around the world. Family farms make up 98 percent of all farms in the United States, and U.S. ranchers and dairy farmers take pride in caring for their animals and giving them the highest quality of life.

Did you know that the chicken meat industry is Australia’s largest land-based animal sector, impacting over 700 million individuals annually? Most of these chickens endure short, miserable lives due to poor welfare standards and laws. Despite the widespread suffering, there is very little public awareness of the problems inherent in modern chicken production. It’s time for this to change. The Alliance has joined forces with World Animal Protection Australia and Animals Aotearoa to bring a new phase of the Better Chicken Commitment to Australia. Better Chicken Australia aims to transform the lives of chickens by elevating their welfare standards.

Higher broiler welfare is taking off in Europe! Over 370 companies are now committed to do better for broilers. Read all about it in the new report from Open Wing Alliance

As of June 2024, 378 companies have committed to the #EuropeanChickenCommitment, a science-based chicken welfare policy: https://bit.ly/3ytBCkv This means the chicken in their supply chains will benefit from better #AnimalWelfare standards, listed here in the commitments that were signed by a number of animal protection NGOs, including #EurogroupforAnimals: https://bit.ly/40lKuB1 #BroilerChickens suffer in their billions in the EU and beyond. Addressing the most pressing issues they face on #FactoryFarms, including fast growth and high stocking densities, is critical for their welfare moving forward. It's great to see that hundreds of companies are taking these problems with the seriousness they deserve. It's time for policy-makers to follow suit. We call on the European Commission to draft much stronger laws for broiler chickens as part of its full revision to the animal welfare legislation, using the European Chicken Commitment as a framework for policy-making. We explore how higher welfare broiler breeds can be legislated on in our recent white paper: https://bit.ly/3PGCgjZ

In the ever-evolving landscape of animal welfare, the challenge of integrating new knowledge and practices into industry’s day to day operations cannot be overstated. It's akin to working on the airplane while it's flying. Many animal producers and processors are not just open but eager to adopt practices proven to benefit both animals and their operations. However, the real hurdle lies not in the willingness but in the integration of these practices into bustling, live operations without causing significant interruptions. Interruptions in day-to-day operations can be costly, not just in financial terms but also in terms of productivity and animal welfare. This delicate balance is where the art of implementation comes into play. The key to successful integration lies in developing strategies hand-in-hand with those on the front lines. It's about crafting solutions that are as practical as they are beneficial, ensuring they can be woven into the fabric of daily operations without unravelling the thread. This collaborative approach ensures that new practices are not just theoretically effective but are feasible and sustainable in the real-world context. At Impetus, we understand the complexity of this challenge. If you have an animal welfare practice or policy that you want to implement but don’t know how, please get in touch with our team. #AnimalWelfare #SustainablePractices #IndustryInnovation #CollaborationIsKey

Beyond the ongoing discussions at COP28, there's a growing focus on Animal Welfare, especially concerning our feathered pals—the chickens. 🐔 Guilty as charged—I have a soft spot for a 20-nugget sharebox. Yet, it's crucial to consider the origin of these nuggets and rally behind initiatives striving for happier, healthier chickens. The advocacy for chickens covers a spectrum, from enhancing living conditions to pushing for ethical treatment. There's a lot of 'clucking' good work underway! ➡ In the EU, animal welfare groups are pressing for companies to adopt the European Chicken Commitment (ECC) to address critical welfare issues.
