Antibiotics in "environmental" category?

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Does it make sense for concerns about antibiotic use to be placed in the environmental category rather than the animal welfare category, or a separate section of it's own? Most of the content in the antibiotic section relates to animal welfare. Although antibiotic use in CAFOs has risks for humans and wild animals in addition to the farmed animals, Abulaphia9 (talk) 03:53, 21 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

This year, several newer editors have edited the lede to state that Smithfield is a 'publicly traded company'. The lede already includes a more accurate referenced statement, spectifically that "roughly 12% of the company became publicly traded after a Nasdaq IPO and subsequent additional stock release."Dialectric (talk) 22:56, 5 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
