If I put in the same range of dates on the maplight.org site I get much higher numbers for the livestock industry 12 million for livestock which means pigs and beef cattle, 13 million for dairy, and 4 million for poultry and egg. Even more important is the pharmaceutical industry is missing from the livestock sector side or perhaps even lumped with medical groups. The graphic on contributions is very questionable.
