A BBC investigation found Moy Park had breached environmental laws in the way it discharged waste.
The protest, which involved campaigners 'vomiting' green sludge was meant to represent blue-green algae in Lough Neagh.
The protest, organised by Slí Eile who describe themselves as an anti-capitalist climate action group, involved protesters simulating vomiting outside the factory. Moy Park supplies branded and own label chicken products to retailers and foodservice providers throughout the UK, Ireland and Europe.Documents filed with Stormont’s Department for the Environment, Agriculture and Rural Affairs show the company has breached legal limits on hundreds of occasions across three different sites in Northern Ireland.
