Would be curious what this data would look like in the US - a lot of states have a fairly high number of small farms (I think a sizable portion of us have gone apple picking at least once in our life) while 99% of farm animals are factory farmed in the US

I suspect it would be a similar distortion since farms are so visible while factory farms are rather hidden from the public.

I could have sworn I saw stats on it for the US and it was similar, but I am not able to find. There are similar stats for things like vast majority of people in the US think cage-free means outside access (it does not)

I actually managed to run back into something similar that I had seen previously
