Did you know that a handful of staple crops replaced the once-wide range of subsistence crops?
75% of Crop Varieties disappeared over the 20th C
only three plant crops (Maize, rice & wheat) accounted for 41% ofthe world's Caloric intake.
What Do you think on bringing back neglected crops?

Sheep can feel emotions like fear, anger, boredom, and happiness. They evaluate their surroundings using checks like suddenness, familiarity, predictability, and control, similar to humans. Sudden events can cause fear, while predictable environments may lead to boredom.

🇳🇴 NORWAY PHASES OUT UNNATURALLY FAST-GROWING “FRANKEN-CHICKENS”
Norway has announced a gradual phase-out of so-called “franken-chickens” by 2027.
Norway, where about 70 million chickens are raised annually for food production, has become the first country to commit to raising 100% of its poultry under conditions that ensure high animal welfare standards. Animal rights advocates have welcomed the decision, calling it a “historic moment.”
“Franken-chickens,” often referred to in Norway as “turbo-chickens,” are fast-growing birds bred through selective breeding to reach maximum weight in the shortest possible time. Due to rapid growth and extreme size, these chickens suffer from numerous health problems, and most animal welfare organizations strongly condemn this practice.
According to Humane World for Animals, franken-chickens reach their “slaughter weight” in just six weeks, leading to severe strain on their bones, muscles, and ligaments. Their bodies often begin to break down as they grow, and many birds lose the ability to move. Humane League UK describes their lives as “extremely short and painful.”
The animal protection coalition Anima International has been campaigning for five years to eliminate fast-growing chicken breeds in Norway. Several animal welfare groups are also calling for similar measures in the United Kingdom.
Experts emphasize that this decision marks a significant step forward in improving animal welfare.
