Consumer choices play a vital role in the ongoing battle against factory pig farming. With such vast resources, large corporation’s power seems unchallengeable, but in fact, we as consumers can influence the practices of these corporations.

Object to the proposed huge pig factory in Foston, UK

UK Company, Midland Pig Producers (MPP) is applying (application CW9/0311/174) to build an indoor pig factory farm on a green field site near the village of Foston, Derbyshire. If the plans are approved it would be one of the largest factory farms in the UK, containing 2,500 mother pigs (sows) and around 25,000 pigs, with 1,000 going for slaughter each week.

Please help us reach our target of 25,000 objections  – that’s one objection for every pig to be confined inside this factory farm.
