Behind the Label takes listeners from the grocery store aisle to the farm – explaining what it means for broiler chickens at Springer Mountain Farms, and all animals, to be raised humanely. Dr. Robin Ganzert, president and CEO of American Humane, the country's first national welfare organization, chats with Lisa Held, a seasoned agriculture reporter, about humane standards on the farm. Together, they bring together scientists and welfare experts to answer questions on the science behind welfare standards, the farm auditing process, and how humane food arrives at a grocery store near you.
What do American Humane Certified standards look like in action at an actual broiler farm? In this episode, American Humane president and CEO Robin Ganzert is back, along with Ken Martin, Springer Mountain Farms’ broiler production manager. Martin shares his on-the-ground and in-the-barn perspective on how farmers in Springer Mountain Farms’ network are working to meet the standards on a daily basis and what happy, healthy chickens really look like.
