farmers have already begun
installing LEDs at their facilities because the energy-efficient lights help
reduce electricity bills, but the center also found they can prevent aggressive

LEDs consumed the least amount of food but still grew the most during the test
period…no signs of aggressive behavior were detected when yellow LEDs were used.”
