Chickens Free Range New York Times Slaughtered

Niman for pasturing the animals to provide all the beef, turkey, chicken and pork eaten in this country?

Would no forests need to be cut down to create the pastures?

To the Editor: Re “ Suddenly, the Hunt Is On for Cage-Free Eggs ” (front page, Aug. 12): While this is a step in the right direction toward reducing the animal abuse inherent in all factory farming (from the chicken’s point of view), it’s still a long way from what nature intended.
