Massachusetts outlaws confinement at egg, pig farms
Massachusetts voters handily approved Question 3, a measure that would outlaw the use of cages in egg production and gestation crates in pig production. About 78 percent of the voters approved of the measure. The law is to take effect in 2022. The measure will not have a large impact on Massachusetts agriculture, as only one commercial egg producer uses cages. [node:read-more:link]
