Undercover video reveals severe pig welfare issues on a New Zealand farm, prompting investigation and public outcry over proposed minor reforms.
Undercover footage from a New Zealand pig farm shows sows confined in small crates, some injured and with limited water, while piglets are kept in barren, heated pens with dead piglets found in a trash bin.
The Ministry for Primary Industries is investigating minor welfare concerns following the release of the video by animal rights group SAFE, which called the conditions inhumane and urged a ban.
Despite widespread public opposition to proposed changes that slightly increase crate size and reduce confinement time to seven days, Associate Agriculture Minister Andrew Hoggard defended the revisions as necessary for balancing animal welfare with industry sustainability.
The select committee approved the changes, citing progress in standards, while MPI continues monitoring the farm.
