Cleaning up the bad actors

Since 1987, the Ontario Farm Animal Council (OFAC) has been the voice of animal agriculture in the Canadian province of Ontario on issues such as animal care, food safety and the environment.  When it comes to animal care, OFAC has been lauded for its proactive efforts in identifying and correcting situations that have the potential to result in negative publicity for Ontario’s livestock industry.  In fact, some states in the U.S. are considering emulating OFAC “farmers helping farmers” approach.  At the Animal Agriculture Alliance summit, we talked to OFAC executive director Crystal Mackay about OFAC and how it works.
