To certify, the company had to undergo 200 science-based standards covering everything from adequate space to proper temperature, air

Chile-based Agrosuper, the Las Cornizas broiler chicken farm is the first in South America to earn certification from American Humane the largest certifier of animal welfare in the world.

To qualify as an American Humane Certified producer, Agrosuper’s Las Cornizas broiler chicken farm had to meet the programme’s rigorous requirements, including nearly 200 science-based standards covering everything from adequate space to proper temperature, air and water quality, the ability to express natural behaviours and much more.

Agrosuper also voluntarily agreed to undergo stringent, yearly audits by expert, independent, third-party auditors to ensure the programme’s standards are being implemented correctly.
