breeding farms
Livestock propagation facilities
Breeding farms are facilities where animals are raised specifically for reproduction, producing offspring for sale, food production, or other purposes.
The term applies to operations ranging from livestock breeding to puppy mills.
In historical contexts, breeding farms refers to plantations where enslaved people were forced to reproduce to increase the slaveholder's human property—a practice documented in the antebellum American South.
