Meet the Scientific Advisory Committee Behind the Label with American Humane

    • 教育

The American Humane Certified standards for farm animals are grounded in scientific research. That starts with the Scientific Advisory Committee, a panel of experts with various specialties, from veterinary science to ruminant nutrition. In this episode, Dr. Joy Mench, an animal welfare expert who is a professor emeritus at UC Davis and has written several textbooks on animal welfare—including specifically on poultry behavior—talks about her work as a member of the Scientific Advisory Committee. American Humane’s director of Farm Program Operations Haley Grimes chimes in to share how the Committee works with the farm operations team to apply the standards.

In March, HRN began producing all of our 35 weekly shows from our homes all around the country. It was hard work stepping away from our little recording studio, but we know that you rely on HRN to share resources and important stories from the world of food each week. It’s been a tough year for all of us, but right now HRN is asking for your help. Every dollar that listeners give to HRN provides essential support to keep our mics on. We've got some fresh new thank you gifts available, like our limited edition bandanas.
