Description

Since 1980, and just 1 km away from the village of Vale de Santiago, an illegal intensive pig farm has been growing without any control or accountability. As a result, after four decades, 5,000 m2 of illegal buildings have been built, hundreds of thousands of pigs have been produced without any control, tons of pollutants have been released into the air, soil and groundwater systems, with terrible long-term consequences for the village and its inhabitants.
