One cow and Irresponsible owner will wreck our industry for years.

How would the Rancher know? I thought M-C-D could only be really diagonsed by examining the brain tissue after death.

The owner was responsible for the feed going into this cow. On our ranch we are required by our buyers to sign a release stating the feed products that we feed, and the business that we buy our feed from signed us a release on their feed products. In every business there is always someone who will try to cash in, buy the cheep stuff with no quality control, and here we go. Like I said, beef will take a big hit in America but watch out for the fall out. Not to mention banks that have financed the cattle purchased at high prices this fall. This is going to be a big bust to the market. Cattle prices are so high now due to cattle invertories being so low due to the drought. denco
