Action: Introduces legislation strengthening animal welfare standards in livestock farming — banning cages, ending routine preventative antibiotic use, and limiting the scale of intensive operations.
UK: Higher welfare standards in UK livestock farming may increase production costs, potentially reducing the economic competitiveness of intensive livestock operations relative to plant-based alternatives, which are associated with lower greenhouse gas emissions and land use impacts.
Global: UK animal welfare legislation could raise the floor for export market access standards, encouraging trading partners to adopt similar practices, which may contribute to global reductions in antimicrobial resistance and improvements in animal welfare and environmental sustainability.
