Who could have guessed that forcing cows to eat bird poo would result in spreading pathogens ?
Experts fear that H5N1, which was only first detected in cows a few weeks ago, may have been transmitted through a type of cattle feed called “poultry litter” – a mix of poultry excreta, spilled feed, feathers, and other waste scraped from the floors of industrial chicken and turkey production plants.
"What would help is a reversal of the … lack of investment in agro-ecological, nature-friendly methods and farmer-led technology. We should be investing in solutions that deal with the cause of disease and pests in the first place, including a lack of crop diversity, the decline in beneficial insects, and animal overcrowding."
@strypey Always with the "Increased yields and additional nutritional benefits". Just stop doing all the things the Green Revolution told you to do, stop ploughing, stop poisoning soils with fertilizer. Restore the natural processes and the nutritional value will sky-rocket and you won't need to increase yields.
