💨 Abstract

The article discusses the impact of US tariffs on European industries, particularly focusing on soy and corn, which are crucial for animal feed in factory farming. It highlights the evolution of European livestock farming, distinguishing two eras: an organic model (1870-1930s) and scientific modernization ( post-WWII). The intensive farming model, driven by US influences, led to significant social, environmental, and public health issues, including crises like mad cow disease.
