Animal rights groups target emotion rather than fact |

It was a colorful and attractive pamphlet, at first glance. But, closer inspection found it negative and full of exaggerations and misinformation, playing on the emotions of readers. It was a pamphlet published by a couple of the animal rights groups and handed to a local person in downtown Cleveland recently.
These radical groups are spending a lot of time, effort and energy trying to take healthy, protein-rich foods, such as meat, milk, other dairy products and eggs away from us. Activities like distributing their pamphlet to urban folks tell a story that is simply not true.
Factual information based on sound science says livestock farmers are taking better care of their animals today than any time in the past. |

Don't blame farmers for higher food prices |

With the prices farmers are getting for their corn and with wheat and soybeans down to about 50 percent of what they were last June and July, food prices at the grocery store should be dropping sharply. But, are they?
The American Farm Bureau Federation's [AFBF] recent FBNews newspaper had an interesting article about current food prices. Food manufacturers raised their prices sharply in 2007 and 2008, blaming higher farm prices for the problem. So, with these drastically lower farm prices and lower fuel costs, why have prices you pay at the grocery store stayed high and even increased in some cases?
According to Bob Young, AFBF chief economist, "It seems to take processors and manufacturer's longer to lower prices than to raise them." |
