January 8, 2014 Statement from Tyson Foods, Inc. As part of the evolution of our FarmCheck™ program, Tyson will increase third-party sow farm audits in 2014. We urge all pork producers to use video monitoring in their sow farms to increase oversight and decrease biosecurity risks. We encourage pork producers to discontinue the use of manual blunt force as the primary method of euthanizing sick and injured piglets. We support the development and use of pain mitigation for tail docking and castration for piglets. We urge pork producers to improve housing systems for gestating sows by focusing on both the quality and quantity of space provided. We recognize there are differing views on these issues and that this letter raises questions. While we don’t have all the answers, we can tell you we plan to work with you as well as our Animal Well-Being Advisory Panel, industry groups – such as the National Pork Producers Council – and our customers in the coming months.
