Photo of the Week 86


	Corporate hog farms. Taken at the Seaboard Slater facility, Texas county, Oklahoma. These are finishing hogs that come into this barn weighing about 55 pounds and leave at the age of 5 1/2 months weighing about 280 pounds. They are so crowded that, at this size, they cannot lie down to sleep. Photo courtesy of the Oklahoma Family Farm Alliance.
