    I thought the US would be way up there given the intensive livestock industry there. But I guess we all underestimated the pig industry in China. They have multi-storey slaughter houses for pigs over there!

      Really, why?

      Like why not process rural, it has to be cheaper to just use rural land and go horizontal than vertical.

        We used to do vertical in Chicago. You drive the livestock to the top floor, butcher them there, then use gravity to move them around.
