- Rendering is a vital part of sustainable agricultural production. Renderers take the parts of animals that North Americans choose not to utilize and make them into valuable products like livestock feed, pet food, biofuel, fertilizer, and other industrial products. The truth about rendering is much different than you may have been told.
This is a great introduction to an important subject most people know nothing about!
Wow this was great! Very informative. Are you guys going to do any more videos?
Thanks, Nicolas! We will have versions in French and Spanish soon!
Thanks, Ike!

I've seen rendering plants, and they are for animals who have died of illness or been euthanized, they are not skinned, they are not gutted... This means 25% fecal matter, complete with parasites and dangerously mutated bacteria which you cannot isolate/test for when in mass production. There is A REASON why we butcher and display meats. We should be removing centralization of food instead of adding more.
Unless you are talking about several separate entities for rendering, instead of just grinding first and asking questions later. It's good to use animal products more for things like we used to, I'm all for it- I just see potential problems.
Simple solution- Render unnatural deaths and use as FERTILIZER and PLANT BED MATERIAL ONLY
Grow farms in city and indoors/vertically
Turn useless land (deserts with nearby mountains) into useful land (salt pans/lakes) and take advantage of natural weather producing conditions
Collect rainwater for drinking and watering of plants, and your leavings will be treated by natural processes in lakes such as certain breeds of bacteria and plants, and natural UV light
Use the rendered non-edibles as compost to help aid these areas in development
You may think the world is overpopulated, or we have to go to extreme measures to sustain it, but it's really just distribution... There are also a ton of unnecessary deaths due to preventable disease by contaminated drinking water, food, air etc
In addition, of course- there are a lot of meat producing chickens who never get a chance to lay eggs. If you stop producing chickens to grow up before they can produce eggs just to be slaughtered everyone can have an egg a day for free for life- probably more than that.
I laugh at this idiot world. All I see is greed, stupidity, and sheer recklessness.
In other words, you don't actually have to clear land for grain production. You can grow corn in the Sahara Desert for all I care, with the technology present today. Other than that, ethanol and fuel production is great.... Just don't feed it to people... You'll have nationwide outbreaks and crisis, and an inability to stop a spread of disease etc.
Again, you are misinformed.
NatlRenderersAssoc Oh really?
Don't mistake me for some vegan nut- animal meat and fat is very beneficial to health. That being said- it is beneficial to the health of all animals to eat healthy organisms...
Please by all means try and discredit the multitude of videos, surveillance, and OPEN VISITATION of plants which dump livestock whole into big churning vats.
By the way, food grade standards for pet food and livestock feed are not on the same tier as human food, and not nearly as "monitored" publicly.
It's a nice setup- have the farmers pay to remove their dead livestock from the fields, since they don't really know enough about anatomy and health to check for themselves what went wrong with the animals or are squeamish about chopping their dead horse up- then they won't find out that the feed supplements that were given to them were made by the rendering plant in the first place and were not beneficial to the animals health or needed at all....
Really nice setup.
I think it would be better to simply educate people on buying quality meats and fats and processing it themselves, since it is much healthier than hydrogenated oils and such... Provided the animals are healthy of course. I don't think a giant plant that requires massive amounts of power to operate and can shut down and ruin a bunch of people's lives at once, run by a few individuals, is a good solution.
Again, I am well aware of FDA regulations for animal food. They are different than they are for human food. I recommend you read up on the "Food Safety Modernization Act". Also, only 4.5% of rendered product comes from fallen animals. I don't think CZcams is a great medium for conversation so feel free to email me at info@nationalrenderers.com.
NatlRenderersAssoc I'm simply concerned about the open door for corruption of a perfectly reasonable and environmentally healthy business- I do see the benefits of large scale but the potential consequences are severe. Amid that I see a lack of encouragement to the average citizen to do their own experimentation/research and take matters of their health, fuelmaking, and animal husbandry into their own hands. I don't think all rendering plants are like what I have mentioned, and I should have said that- I just want it openly talked about. I appreciate you taking the time to read my comments and respond.
My original post was out of frustration upon some businesses, and I do realize not all are like this/not everyone involved in the process will even see all of the practices.
Pemtobarbitol found in pet food.
I just stopped eating meat -disgusting that this garbage is in livestock and pet foods
hee hee..wait till they start rendering humans......
Soylent green?????
They already do this for petfood. Ever wonder where the millions of euthanized pets go? Either into plant nutrition or pet nutrition... Lamb and rice for 1$? They must think we're idiots or something.
No. They don't. Euthanized pets are either incinerated or go through anaerobic digestion. Also, there is FDA inspection of pet food--if it says "lamb" it includes lamb.
NatlRenderersAssoc I've seen the videos. They aren't incinerated. They are thrown in a grinder. Don't lie to the world please. I'm sure they make great fertilizer/animal feed supplement... What with all the mercury/heavy metals or god knows what probably in their system and all. Sure it includes lamb, but it could also include other things. If it says "lamb" that means that is what most of it is.
I know the "efficiency" of dog food seems like it is all fine and grande but there have been MANY MANY recalls which show that it is not a safe sustainable solution but a precarious one.
All industrial food has health risks. This is something that can't be ignored... Acidic foods can dissolve parts of the machine and so traces of it can be found in the food... Giant rendering plants take up energy which could go to glass production of at home fermenting kits, water purification etc. Some enterprising terrorist could poison the entire population at once if they truly wanted. They only way to fix/prevent this kind of thing is educate people about how to render at home, and teach them to source their food- not do it for them...
I don't know whether you really don't get what I am saying, or are simply defending a business- but I ask you this- Where do you stop seeing customers and start seeing humans/grandchildren?
Do you understand what removal of awareness of food and processing does to a community/culture/civilization?
Do you think facilitating fast food corporations and companies by getting people used to not making things themselves and picking it up finished elsewhere is a good idea in the event of a week long shutdown/war?
Instead of trimming the fat we should give it out with the meat- beef fat when grass fed has lots of omega 3s. If the person wants to render it themselves they should be able to- but knowing what is in your food is something that people should be concerned about and should be able to know easy, not jump through hoops for.
Meat glue isn't a secret- and while I don't condone food waste an easy fix is to give parts whole to pets/livestock. Why buy dogfood when you have day old leftovers or some hamburger meat? People shouldn't be afraid of seeing what they are eating in its meat/organ form, and should be able to deal with their nutrition accordingly. Rendering encourages people to not use "imperfect" produce by doing it for them... I say the easy solution is reintroducing people to their classic rendering solutions- I do approve of using the entire animal.
I have a Ph.D. in Meat Science and Muscle Biology. If a bag of pet food says "lamb meal" and no other animals are listed on the label, lamb is all that in that bag of pet food. Rendering plants sequester 5 times the amount of carbon that they release and many renderers the fat that is recovered in the boilers of the plant. 28% of the amount of fats and oil production by rendering plants goes into an ingredient for biofuel.
Rendering is a VFX term. If you are scientist talk science and don't make confusion. You just cannot start calling someone Pilot when everyone knows what it means in science
Yes, rendering is necessary. Pity humans aren't rendered as well, as we are the ones that are mass consuming the planet, that way we could return a little what we take. Why should human corpses be soooo precious, we are blood and bone too.
