Is beef really that bad?

If you look back at years past when our nation was a more agrarian society, the farmer was a respected person in the community. People were closer to agriculture and more in touch with the way farms worked. Today, that is not the case. People are more removed from agriculture than ever, despite their yearning for local food. How do I know this? The attacks that the public farmers face are relentless. Much of those attacks come from a place of misunderstanding. Many of those who hurl insults and accusations at our farmers are doing so because they don’t understand the reason or science behind common agricultural practices. They want the farmer to match their definition of what a farmer should be.
