[QUOTE="novatech, post: 613139, member: 5494"] Actually I think [b]you [/b]are missing the point. This is a free society not one in which we are [b]forced[/b]. You are not forced to take high quality cattle to the sale barn. You can choose to learn how to market your high quality product and you can choose to direct mark and get a premium. If you have a quality product the buyer will buy more. If do not want to bother then the choice is yours. All the tracer will do is cause more paper work and buracracy. Now I could see where the IRS or some other governmental agency could benefit. If a packer knows that a producer is producing a higher quality beef product do you think the packer is going to run out and start paying more when they have been buying them cheap for years. It is up to the producer to produce a high quality product and market it. There are many doing this today without the use of electronic markers. I can see where it would give the packer and some feed lots a big advantage. [/QUOTE]
