Controversy level
- An Environmental Integrity Project / Union of Concerned Scientists analysis of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency data found the company's processing plants discharged hundreds of millions of pounds of pollutants (including nitrogen, phosphorus, chlorides and oil and grease) into U.S. rivers and waterways, and the company has faced Clean Water Act enforcement actions including a 2018 incident in which a Tyson plant discharge killed an estimated 100,000+ fish in Missouri's Clear Creek.
