b'Can factory farms become real farms growing real food? Of course they can! But they might need a little help. Tyler Whitley is here to tell us all about Transfarmation, a program of Mercy for Animals working with contract growers of chickens and other animals to help them get out from under corporate agribusiness and shift to plant-based production.
\\n
\\nTyler Whitley brings more than a decade of experience in agricultural and financial systems to his role as the Director of Transfarmation. As part of earning a master\\u2019s of public health from Tulane University he interned for the UN Food and Agriculture Organization on a project in Cambodia administering cash transfers and community reinvestments for more than 7,500 smallholder farmers. He then managed a food and farming intervention program in two rural Haitian provinces. After moving to North Carolina and working for a small farmer-advocacy organization, he joined Mercy For Animals as the director of the Transfarmation project.
