Original Note:
Independent analysis from the RSPCA found that New Zealand's farm standards are equivalent to the United Kingdom's, with some being found to be higher. https://www.thescottishfarmer.co.uk/news/20182605.rspca-state-new-zealand-judged-higher-welfare-uk/ Similar past claims have also been fiercely disputed. https://www.politico.eu/article/red-tractor-label-australia-new-zealand-united-kingdom-trade-animal-welfare-standards/ AHDB are also not independent as they fund the Red Tractor scheme. https://redtractorassurance.org.uk/how-we-are-funded/
