Animal welfare has strong implications in the sustainability of our supply of meat, milk, and egg products. The issue of animal housing and husbandry has implications within the context of social, economic, and environmental sustainability, as well as food safety. The considerations of each of these often contradict one another and result in competing priorities for animal management and uncertainty for the impact of these decisions on the supply of animal products.
