from factoryfarmmap.org

Comment from the contributor:

From Food & Water Watch--
 
How many factory farms are in your state? Is your state a major polluter? How about your county? This fantastic interactive map of the United States allows you to see the number and type of factory farms in each state and county, the level of pollution in each state and county, and recent government action against factory farm pollution in each state.
