I think the sentence makes perfect sense-- critics/supporters make the same argument, just with different priorities: Supporters place farmer interests over animal welfare, critics do the reverse. I do have to say that the supporters/farmers position looks objectively ethically questionable to me, but the old saying surely applies: "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it"
