Oh my god, it's already hard for farmers to make a living. They already dont earn as much, if we tax them more, they might be out of business. So from the percentage given, that means they will probably be taxed 45% more than indoor-reared poultry meat. That is a lot, and isnt it possible that if we tax them too much and eventually they will be out of business. Plus, it is almost impossible to totally avoid pollution. If that's the case, then i think eventually people will just leave the industry. THEN, we wont have meat to eat!!
