[QUOTE="LCCattle, post: 1346137, member: 23661"] Here is another example of why regulations are needed. Manufactures who introduce new products that are not approved. Chicken litter for cattle feed. Labeled under ingredients as “grain by-products “. [url=http://extension.missouri.edu/p/G2077]http://extension.missouri.edu/p/G2077[/url] IMO, chicken litter should have been approved by the USDA before it was ever sold as an ingredient in any cattle feed. And it should be clearly identified as an ingredient on the bag tag and the bill of sale so the buyer knows exactly what he is getting and paying for and the dangers of feeding it. I will not feed any feed stock knowing it contains chicken litter simply because of the “consumer issues” and the bad publicity it has caused the cattle industry. Our consumers are not the only ones with a right to know. We cattlemen also have a right to know what we are feeding our cattle as we can be held responsible also. [/QUOTE]
