But you don't think it's possible that all the incentives are geared towards this kind of behavior?

That is certainly a possibility! I didn't mean to imply it wasn't. I did a some quick looking and if your in the US, the USDA guarantees livestock insurance, this likely results in a distortion of the risk and perhaps shifts the incentives towards this sort of behavior.

But I would caution against taking rumor and gossip as strong supporting evidence.
