Feed – Thoughts From The Middle of Nowhere

The US is considering starting to let cattle come into the US again from Canada again but a news story I read this morning makes me wonder about it. n n<a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000082&sid=aq2uLkuds.ss&refer=canada" target="_blank">Cattle Feed Contaminated With Animal Parts, Canadian Paper Says</a> n nFeeding practices are the main way <acronym title="Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy">BSE</acronym> is contracted and spread so maybe this whole situation needs looked into a little bit better before we open the border up. Who cares if <a href="http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/December2004/14/c5341.html" target="_blank">Cuba</a> is allowing in Canadian beef again after the Previous scare. We don't have to follow thier lead. n nIt is a good thing to learn caution from the misfortunes of others. Publilius Syrus
