Battery farming (or factory farming in the USA) is the practice of large numbers of animals in confined conditions in order to produce high outputs and low costs. However, meat quality is often lower. Food companies love it; it creates high profits at small costs and is highly efficient. Animal activists hate it; they argue it is cruel and degrading for the animals and want it stopped

Factory farming is a system of farming which involves keeping animals indoors, often with very little space, and giving them special foods so that they grow more quickly or produce more eggs or milk. a type of farming in which animals are kept inside, in small spaces or small cages, and made to grow or produce eggs very quickly farm. System of modern animal farming designed to yield the most meat, milk, and eggs in the least amount of time and space possible. The term, descriptive of standard farming practice in the U.S., is frequently used by animal-rights activists, who maintain that animal-protection measures routinely ignore farm animals. Animals are often fed growth hormones, sprayed with pesticides, and fed antibiotics to mitigate the problems of infestation and disease that are exacerbated by crowded living conditions. Chickens spend their lives crowded into small cages, often so tightly that they cannot turn around; the cages are stacked in high batteries, and the length of "day" and "night" are artificially controlled to maximize egg laying. Veal calves are virtually immobilized in narrow stalls for their entire lives. These and numerous other practices have long been decried by critics
