The Tönnies group of companies is building a slaughterhouse in China for up to six million pigs a year.
The company is convinced of growth in Asia.
Together with the Dekon Group, a subsidiary of the West Hope Group, the Tönnies slaughterhouse will set up a slaughtering and cutting center for initially two million pigs in the Sichuan region.
In a second step, this can be expanded to up to six million pig slaughterings per year. The corresponding contract was signed by the partners this week.
The joint venturestarted in September last year with a joint letter of intent between the two companies. Construction and technical implementation should begin in a few months.
The Tönnies group of companies is aiming for its first production site outside of Europe.
Tönnies: Rheda-Wiedenbrück, Germany
“This joint venture is a milestone for our international development,” said Clemens Tönnies, the managing partner of Tönnies Holding.
Total investment of 500 million euros

And I mean…Tönnies operates large slaughterhouses abroad, for example in Poland and Denmark, and is Germany’s largest butcher.
He also has plans to build a very modern slaughterhouse in the Spanish province of Aragon.
At least that’s what the Spanish newspaper “Helaldo” reports.
The meat cutting process should be fully automated and supported by robots.Up to 625 pigs could be slaughtered per hour.
That would be 70,000 animals a week. Tönnies wants to invest 75 million euros there and create up to 1,000 jobs.
The slaughterhouse in Aragon has been planned for some time.According to the newspaper, the city council of Calamocha has been in talks with Tönnies for five years (!!!)
At the request of the “Handelsblatt”, the company said the project was still at a very early stage.There is a “Letter of Intent”, the contract planning is still ongoing.
According to “Heraldo”, the meat from Calamocha is to be marketed primarily in Spain and the EU. Spain has recently become the world’s largest exporter of pork.
The planned meat factory in Spain is to be built by 2024 at the latest
Tönnies’ grand plans in China are not just expansion.
Because of the outbreak of African swine fever in German wild boars, China, an important customer of Tönnies, has stopped importing pork from all over Germany for the time being.
That is why the company wants to build large slaughterhouses in a joint venture with the Dekon Group there.
Everyone who eats meat, regardless of its type and origin, should be ashamed to collaborate in such businesses.
This applies to all meat-eaters… in China, Spain, Germany, Poland, Australia …
For their own enjoyment or profit, they let others do the killing for them and with their consumption, they help animal killers to do the bloody business with animals in the billions.
Factory farming is nothing more than legalized cruelty to animals.
Anyone who buys animal products signs the contracts with, for this cruelty to animals – everyone and in every country !!

The Kochel police cleared up a series of sawn high seats in the Walchensee area. The perpetrator is a former police officer. The pensioner confesses.
A former police officer has let his hatred of hunters at “Walchensee” (Bavaria) run free Since 2018 he has been sawing, among other things, several high seats
He was caught red-handed.
Icon image
The cases go back to 2018, the Kochler police chief announced on Wednesday.
A 75-year-old man from the southern district was identified as the perpetrator.
He confesses and it is a retired police officer
The man was caught red-handed in the forest by one of the victims in August 2020.
The investigation has been ongoing since then.
The officials in Kochel also examined cases from previous years. Until 2018, property damage in the Walchensee area of the perpetrator could be proven, according to the Kochler police chief.
Specifically, there are eight cases with sometimes massive damage to so-called hunting facilities such as high seats and salt licks.
“In some cases, high seats had been completely cut, sometimes only the ladders were sawed,” reports police chief. The property damage is “in the very high four-digit range” (!!!)
The local Hunting Entitled (!!!) and the Bavarian State Forests are affected. Fortunately, no one was harmed in the acts. It is possible that some high seats were even “climbed in ignorance of the danger”.
The perpetrator confessed to the damage to property. “As a motive, he named personal problems with hunting wild animals.”
The 75-year-old confessed to some of the cases, while others could be detected by wildlife cameras or the location of the tracks.
“For example, we found traces of paint rubbed off on saws on the suspect.”
The Kochel police have worked through all the cases from previous years in this matter. The perpetrator has so far not appeared as a criminal offense.
All reports will now be sent to the public prosecutor.
The perpetrator must expect a fine or even a low-threshold prison sentence.
And I mean…First of all, respect and solidarity belong to the man.
In addition, for one more reason: despite his old age, he continued to try to eliminate the execution places in the forest.
Some things should be clarified here about the status of these murder seats.
Not all are legal, but who dares to ask?
And each scrap of them costs a maximum of 200 euros, most of which are built by the hunter himself.
These “salt licks” are nothing more than bait that the hunters put in front of the high seats so that the future victims get used to them and visit the site regularly.
This is the only way the hunter can create a safe execution site for the future.
Of course, the hunters claim that by fattening them up, they help the weaker ones to survive the hard winter in the forest.
But if the winters are as mild as it was in 2020, it should go without saying that no hunter feeds.
But they do it anyway.
So.. why are hunters so strongly against a possible feeding ban?
It is clear !! Because by regularly feeding the animals, any city hunter can play the nature boy in the fields and hallways and shoot a deer quickly and not sit and wait long in the high seat.
It is creepy when suddenly there is a bang in a high seat in the forest and animals that have been shot (but not dead) fight for their lives.
For someone who has experienced that, it is unforgettable
Therefore we are happy when these execution places are sawed down.
It is not forbidden.

Rome – In Rome, there was a mass death of songbirds on New Year’s Eve.
Terrorized by the loud cracks and the fireworks on the terraces and balconies of the houses, starlings collided en masse against the window panes of shops and apartments as well as against power lines and fell onto the streets.
Questo è quello che è successo nel centro di Roma a causa dei botti di Capodanno.
Sembra la scena del film di Hitchcock
Ogni anno si fanno ordinanze per vietare i botti ed ogni anno queste ordinanze vengono ignorate. pic.twitter.com/rzPhuXHPHO
Bird deaths were particularly high around Termini station. Because a majority of the animals overwinter there.
It is believed that they died of a heart attack.

Due to the ever milder winters in Italy, many migratory bird species no longer migrate south but stay in warm Rome.
The animals overwinter in the trees of the Italian capital because they continue to find mosquitoes, flies, and other insects for food in Rome.
Less injured
Animal rights activists called for strict measures against the New Year’s Eve bang.
“Even if a ban on firecrackers was imposed in Italy, this is not observed. The result is that massive animals die every year on New Year’s Eve. Many pets are injured. This massacre must be put to an end,” protested Massimo Comparotto, President of the “Oipa”animal welfare association.
The New Year celebrations under Corona conditions resulted in significantly fewer injuries and deaths in Italy than in previous years.
The reason was the strict nationwide exit restrictions.
Firecracker bans, such as those issued for Rome, Palermo, Florence, and Milan, were ignored.
In Asti, northern Italy, according to media reports, a 13-year-old probably died from a firecracker. (APA, 2.1.20209)
And I mean…Firecrackers were banned everywhere anyway, at least in Europe.
It was perhaps the first time that European governments jointly decided on something good, for animals and people.
That also applied to Italy.
But there are always some idiots who light fireworks in the dark of the night despite the law and think they are resisting thereby the system
Soon Italy, like all of Europe, will be at an end, economically and socially.
The Italians should protest against this, and not at night, not with fireworks, but peacefully with other people during the day.
Otherwise, they, and all of us, will soon be in the place of the songbirds.
