The world’s leading meat producer, Tyson Foods Inc., announced the closure of its largest pork packing plant in Iowa this week as the company transitions towards insect farming to produce
“meat alternatives.”
The meat giant also indicated that four additional plants would close by mid-fiscal 2024, just days after announcing the closure of two major chicken plants.
“After careful consideration, we have made the difficult decision to permanently close our Perry, Iowa pork facility,” spokesperson said in a statement.
“We understand the impact of this decision on our team members and the local community.”
The closure of the Perry, Iowa, pork-packing plant comes just weeks after the Biden administration announced plans to use American tax dollars to convince Americans to “eat more bugs” to help “save the planet” from “climate change.“
The new push for a “meatless future” is part of the World Economic Forum’s “Great Reset” agenda to not only eradicate meat and dairy from our diets, but also destroy farmers‘ livelihoods in the name of stopping global warming.
This comes as Tyson Foods recently announced it was partnering with a Dutch bug-protein company to implement “insect farming” infrastructure across the United States.
“Today, we’re focused on more of [an] ingredient application with insect protein than we are a consumer application,” Tyson Foods CFO John R. Tyson said
