    The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board's 'Let's Eat Balanced' campaign, launched in 2021, frames meat and dairy as essential sources of micronutrients while implicitly positioning plant-based diets as nutritionally inadequate. This coordinated messaging effort is seen as reinforcing industrial agriculture interests and countering the growing shift towards sustainable, plant-based diets.
