On August 3, 2018, a federal jury awarded six North Carolina residents $ 470 million in damages against Murphy-Brown LLC.

It uses two forms of group housing: in one system, 30–40 sows are kept in a pen with access to individual gestation crates; in the other system, five or six sows are housed together in a pen.
