Meat giant Tyson Foods announced that it will close two of its facilities

Calculated destruction of our food supply is where my money is at.

I wonder if this is a result of the diminished supply of chickens?
"Why is there chicken shortage?
Why is there a chicken shortage? Petrol increases, electricity price hikes, labour shortages and limited wheat supplies (main ingredient in chicken feed) due to the Ukraine war have culminated to create the perfect storm for chicken suppliers."

Tyson chicken is pumped full of chemicals

yeah, this is no big loss for sane people

What will happen to those 1700 illegal mexican employees? prision? deportation?

Those locations will be converted to bugz processing facilities.....

Yeah it's probably going to be a little bit hard to keep a chicken processing plant open once all the chickens are gone hello

That is amazing. After all these years, I've never heard of Springfield Arkansas before.

Maybe lack of demand (?) is caused by the rising Sky High Prices?

When I was a truck driver, I went to the Glen Allen facility. It was on March 13, 2014. They were really hard workers, and were happy. I feel bad for those folks who will be out of work.

After being abused by illegals. Tyson hires only enough legits to manage their herds of hodidos

The people who were working there when I visited weren't illegals. They were black.

It is in NE Arkansas, just North of Fayetteville.

CHINA OWNS TOO MUCH AND ALSO WILL OPEN THE PROCESSING UP IN China

my 2 cents too

hello and bye

They'll reopen in a few weeks as cricket farms.

In a REAL world a closure of a mega chicken supplier like this would open up the market to competition. So will it?

Are Americans so fat, poor, and complacent that removing a giant chicken operation like this will result in very little changing? Think about it. These mega corporations are hugely inefficient and overpriced. A few small, lean operations could easily undercut the chicken market simply charging a couple dollars less than Tyson.

People are going back to raising their own chickens for eggs and meat.

last year, they moved their corporate headquarters to springdale. they were in chicago. they ran away from all
the killing and stupidity like many other businesses.

there is no reason not to.


it solves several problems at once.

i built a coop with a small run for 6 hens on the side of my driveway last spring.

now i have more eggs than i can eat and plenty of manure for my garden.

neighbors buy enough eggs to pay for any chicken feed i buy.

raising meat chickens is even easier...unless you can't handle the slaughter/processing part.

Sorry, no. I've lived in Rogers (NWAR) , 10 miles N of Springdale Arkansas, and also I've lived in Fayetteville(NWAR) , 10 miles S of Springdale arkansas, the home of the Tysons and Tyson Meats.
Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers and Bentonville comprise NWA.

Hooked on phonics worked for me!

The Tysons have been in Springdale Ar since the 1930's. Maybe they moved their hqtrs to Chicago when they bought all the pork and beef production to go with their Chicken production.

who cares their meat is shit

We won't buy or eat Tyson chicken.
We are part of their problem.

I haven’t bought their genetically engineered chicken in years.

No way a normal chicken has a breast the size of a basketball.

hahahahaha
GOOD

FUTURE NEWS: Fentanyl deaths in Springdale Arkansas and Glen Allen Virginia on the rise.



Jobless beanbags = more drug dealers in town.

It's all about the bugs. No chicken.

Wasn't Tyson one of the companies that mandated that all their employees get the vax?

I wonder if part of the reason for the closures, is that many of their employees are now too sick to do the work? Or dead?
