With consumers demanding good and safe food and less use of antibiotics, the production process becomes ever more technical and clinical. But this also means that non-organic food is increasingly becoming just as 'organic' as organic food.

Wildschut says, 'Our food production process is all about economy, efficiency and profit. This ultimately widens the gap between humans and animals. I found out that I didn't actually know where my food comes from. I started this assignment with a notion that many people probably have: that our food production system has all kinds of failings. I've changed my mind about that. Large-scale production also means innovation, energy savings, better food quality control and even better animal welfare.'
