ĪWA and GAP Step 4-5+ currently require the use of chicken breeds that intrinsically have higher welfare than industrial breeds, which can suffer due to their genetics.

The default environment for products from dairy and beef cattle, bison, sheep (lamb), and goats is Outdoor Access as these animals are never confined indoors. We encourage Certified Humane to build out these distinctions in their program to enhance animal welfare, advance transparency in the marketplace, and reward farmers and ranches that achieve this level of animal care.

At this time, Certified Humane does not have free range or pasture standards for pork production, pasture standards for turkey, or grass-fed/pasture standards for goats or sheep. The animals’ housing environment is designated on Shop With Your Heart as Indoors with Enrichments, having Outdoor Access, or Pasture Raised based on the highest animal welfare distinction the food brand/product achieves from any one of the meaningful programs we recognize. *The ASPCA does not audit farms or ranches and instead relies on independent animal welfare certifications as the basis for evaluating different food brands in the marketplace. “ Where to buy” information is kept up-to-date by individual companies please contact the store or seller directly to confirm product availability. To learn more, visit Select Products to Begin Note that some certifications have multiple levels, different meanings for different species*. Some are strengthened by the presence of additional claims or certifications on the package, including Certified Grassfed by AGW (A Greener World) as an optional addition to Animal Welfare Approved or the Better Chicken Project for Global Animal Partnership certified chicken products. The below chart shows where the ASPCA-recognized certifications fall with respect to these three types of higher welfare farming. These certifications’ standards range from raising animals indoors with added enrichments, which the ASPCA considers to be baseline for better animal care, to outdoor access where animals have access to more space, fresh air, and sunlight, to pasture raised where animals have reliable access to space and growing vegetation – generally the highest welfare farming model. The ASPCA has identified three independent and meaningful welfare certification programs that ban unacceptable factory farming practices and provide a better life for animals through their standards and farm audits: Animal Welfare Approved, Certified Humane, and Global Animal Partnership. This graphic explains the difference between certifications.
