I like this op-ed in particular because it's describing a farming system that isn't too far from what many mid-sized hog farms are like in the US. Of course, part of what makes the system in Denmark work well is a lot of support from the government in the early stages (when mortality briefly rose) and a commitment to regulating the use of the antibiotics with consequences for not following them.
