‘The Food Supply Chain Is Breaking’Company board chairman John Tyson warned in full-page ads taken out Sunday in The New York Times, The Washington Post and the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette that “The food supply chain is breaking.” “Farmers across the nation simply will not have anywhere to sell their livestock to be processed, when they could have fed the nation,” he added. Citing the closures of many of its meat processing facilities, Tyson wrote that farmers could soon have nowhere to sell livestock, and that “millions of animals — chickens, pigs and cattle — will be depopulated because of the closure of our processing facilities.” “There will be limited supply of our products available in grocery stores until we are able to reopen our facilities that are currently closed,” he added. “In addition to meat shortages, this is a serious food waste issue,” Tyson wrote. |
