That not everything you see on TV about Ag is correct:

1.We dont beat our livestock on a regular basis. There are always some bad people in every profession that give everyone else a bad image. some of those are staged for the cameras.
2. Not all animal rights groups have the best intrest of animals at heart. PETA and HSUS care more about raising money than helping animals. Ask those groups how much they spend actually rescuing animals and you dont get a straight answer. If they want to help animals, tell them to contribute to a LOCAL animal shelter instead.
3. While Organic and NON GMO products are fine if you want them, feeding the world entirely that way is not realistic! People will starve if we are not allowed to use the technology we have today in AG. There are no sientific studies that show they are any healthier than GMO products
4. That most ag products are not produced by "evil corportations". Most, things are still produced on family farms
