Even more important than removing agricultural subsidies and tariffs would be to implement laws that require humane treatment of these living, breathing creatures. Prices would soar and alternatives would prosper if factory farms were not allowed to torture animals.
As the costs of subsidized, unhealthy food rise, consumption will decline. This, of course, assumes that the demand is induced by artificially low prices. If people consume just as much high-fructose corn syrup at higher prices, then you have a cultural challenge on your hands.
