From the supplier: Agribusiness or the practice of confining a large number of animals, such as pigs, to a small space for efficient food production has disadvantages. One negative aspect is the large of volume of excreta or waste which must be disposed of. Excreta is considered as waste because of the substantially large quantity and because it cannot be used for fertilizer at the site. Another problem is the use of genetically altered seeds as feeds. Genetically modified seeds are the property of the biotechnology companies and provide unpredictable complexities to nature's balance.
