Captivity Tiers — every mapped feedlot, classified by ownership and packer geography

Companion to the FAT research paper Captive in Practice. Each yard is colored by its captivity tier: ownership-captive (packer-owned or corporate-chain), geographic-captive (only one Big Four / key independent plant within 50 miles), remote (no plant within 50 miles), or choice (2+ plants within 50 miles, can credibly cross-shop).
