Are animal farming and factory farming the same?
No. "Factory farming" is a phrase used only by opponents of large-scale animal agriculture. The correct term is actually Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation or CAFO. As the name implies, CAFO's are large facilities where animals are fed out until they reach their slaughter weight. Only about 15,000 of the 350,000 animal feeding operations in the US qualify as CAFO's, but they produce over 50% of the total animal products.Another viewpointFactory farming is one way of farming, but there are many ways to raise animals as livestock. For example, one could have free range livestock, meaning that they have a lot of land on which to live.In a factory farm, the animals are generally kept in extremely tight quarters and are fed via a large machine. They are handled more by machines than by people. The purpose of factory farming is to churn out more fat animals and meat to make more money. It is not good for people (The food quality is terrible), it is not good for the animals (they suffer a lot before death), and it is not good for the environment (tons of CO2 produced, not to mention the land they are on is trashed).In short, factory farming is a type of animal farming, but animal farming is a broader category with more answers.
