[QUOTE="JMJ Farms, post: 1302171, member: 24583"] I agree. But in this case what the customer wants is cheaper beef in the grocery store. You can't provide cheaper beef by increasing inputs (i.e. needing a vet to provide assistance, approval, drugs for sedation, etc) and labor costs. Simply stated.... More guidelines=higher costs (to be passed on to the consumer.) I feel certain that most, if not all, the members on this board take excellent care of their cattle because they truly love and respect them (if not they wouldn't have them, bc we sure ain't got them to get rich). If these procedures in question are done when the cattle are newborn to a couple months old it's a very simple, harmless, and virtually painless process. But bc some people wait till the cattle are 600+ pounds to castrate and dehorn it causes the rest of us to be faced with more rules and regulations. [/QUOTE]
