Which means the cost of meat is going up again. Because now instead of over the counter access, a vet prescription will be necessary.
The big outfits like Tyson’s will have a substandard vet that will do as he is told on staff, no problem for them.
The small producers, however, will see skyrocketing vet bills since they’ll have to call a vet every time a cow or ewe gets mastitis or a bummer calf or lamb gets pneumonia. Not to mention the lost time in arranging appointments instead of dropping by the co-op for the needed medicine.
effing Luddites claiming to be on the side of the little guy, but screwing us over at every turn, because they are STUPID TOOLS.
I saw that...that’s great news, as far as I’m concerned. And I don’t believe the companies are doing it because of the FDA, I believe they are making the changes because of the old fashioned, “consumer demand”...it’s what customers are asking for! We don’t need any Federal Agency for that.
