In the latest of a series of new, short Freedom Food videos, the RSPCA’s Kate Parkes is shown visiting a Freedom Food pig farm to see the welfare standards in action.
“In recent years, Freedom Food has seen an increase in the number of animals on the scheme,” said Ms Parkes, who is involved in the production of the Freedom Food standards.
“Pigs in particular have been a real success story; between 2009 and 2012 we saw a 50% increase in the number of pigs reared under the Freedom Food scheme.”
