Chinese strategy
OPINION: Fonterra may have sold its dairy farms in China but the appetite for collaboration with the country remains strong.
It claims this involves killing cows during pregnancy and draining blood from unborn calves and wants the Government and the National Animal Welfare Advisory Committee (NAWAC) "to remove suffering from the supply chain".
As usual, this campaign is based on disinformation, trying to provoke an emotional response. In reality, farms in New Zealand can legally send cows to slaughter up until their final month of pregnancy and the usual standards of humane killing apply.
Another farcical campaign from SAFE!
