Many farmers do care about their animals. They feel a sense of duty to provide food for people. It's a calling.
We might not understand it but the farmers brought to tears about their animals potentially being slaughtered in the fields and burned on a pyre rather than taken to an abattoir and ultimately eaten, feel a sense of waste of those animal's lives.

Tbf to the farmer, slaughtering animals for food is easier to accept than having their premature deaths serve no greater purpose.

And CO2 for stunning animals before killing them. I read something about how someone saw a farmer brought to tears because they'd have to kill all their pigs that they'd lovingly raised, like that's not what they get shipped off for anyway, I assume the tears were for lost revenue and not that they thought they were all going off to live on a slightly different farm until then.
