Heritage breeds are raised by some pp-growers
The breed and the growing method influence
texture and flavor (see Label Rouge)
Free-range inside electric fencing attached
to movable pens is common
Planting forages for poultry is an option to
increase intake
Growing grains is same region is regional economy
and builds infrastructure for livestock and row
crop farmers; new generation cooperatives
Whether pasture-style or CAFO-style, there's plenty
of litter mgmt systems and microbial/probiotic/
energetic tools for enhancing bird health
Blog on.... but there's more to see
