[QUOTE="Dave, post: 200458, member: 498"] One of my several concerns about the program is what happens when cattle prices go down. When this happens as it has in the past there are times when dairy bull calves are literally free. So how many dairy farmers are going to put a $5 ear tag into a calf to give it away? They will knock them in the head. On one hand this will help bring the market back as there will be less cattle on the market. But what will the PETA people do if they figure out there is a Gov't program that causes farmers to kill and dump new born calves? Dave [/QUOTE]
