The Government has reported that it inspected last week all the hen farms of Avícola Ballester that were reported by animal rights organizations and did not detect "any notable incident". This was detailed this Tuesday by the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Natural Environment, Joan Simonet, in response to a question from PSIB deputy Malena Riudavets during this Tuesday's plenary session of Parliament.

The project for the Avícola Son Perot chicken mega-farm, which aims to produce 26.5 million eggs annually at the Son Brau estate in Manacor, presents urban planning non-compliances and serious environmental shortcomings. This is warned by the mandatory reports issued by the Manacor City Council, to which ARA Balears has had access. All municipal departments that have had to intervene in the administrative procedure have reported unfavorably on this controversial project that is accumulating opponents. The company's track record, involved in multiple complaints of animal abuse and health-related issues, has put the area's residents on a war footing.

ARDE and Satya Animal registered 50,000 signatures this Friday morning against the project for an 80,000-hen factory farm at the Son Brau estate in Manacor, promoted by Avícola Son Perot, which is linked to Avícola Ballester. The entities delivered them to the Government of the Balearic Islands to demand that the new facility not be authorized.

Decomposing chicken carcasses, injured animals, and birds trapped in manure. This is what the recordings that support the second complaint in one week against an Avícola Ballester farm show. Animal rights organizations ARDE and Satya Animal are once again pointing out a facility of the company, this time the one in Es Caparó, in Manacor, where the images recorded in July document scenes that a veterinary report considers compatible with severe deterioration of animal welfare.

Around 40 people demonstrated this Saturday in the center of Palma to demand that horse-drawn carriages be replaced by electric ones, with the aim of ending animal abuse. Summoned by the animal rights platforms Anima Naturalis, Peta, Satya Animal, FFW, and Progrés en Verd, the participants gathered at the Plaça de la Seu in Palma to then move to the point on Carrer del Conqueridor where a few weeks ago there was a confrontation between a carriage driver and a tourist.
