Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) account for most U.S. livestock production. Their large scale keeps food costs down, but spreading all that manure as crop fertilizer creates air and water quality problems. The industry has tried to limit these impacts, but nutrient runoff, methane and ammonia emissions, and other impacts have CAFOs under scrutiny from regulatory groups, advocacy groups, investors, and consumers.
