Pig

This location in Buren keeps pigs. This location holds the EKO certification.

This footage is from an organic pig farm. The piglets are separated from their mothers after six weeks. Organic piglets are more likely to suffer from lameness than conventional pigs. This video shows the mother pig walking with difficulty.

  • Investigation

    The Ongehoord research team visited no fewer than 26 pig farms. The result was a huge collection of injured, sick, and dead animals. At one organic farm, stereotypical behavior and leg defects were filmed.
