A nonprofit that monitors animal welfare claim submissions to the USDA found that most of the claims it reviewed had inadequate documentation.
The USDA lets producers define some terms, including “humane,” which can lead to widely varying conditions for animals. Other claims like “free range” are clearly defined by the USDA, but some producers are skirting requirements.
“There are plenty of companies out there that are following the law and many that are not, and that’s just not fair,” Eskin said. Eskin said the agency may also update definitions of certain claims, a change some producers have been pressing for. Perdue Foods, a major poultry and pork producer, recently asked the USDA to clarify the difference between “free range” and “pasture raised.” The agency uses the terms interchangeably, Perdue said, even though “free range” chickens may roam in dirt or shrubs and not necessarily pasture.
