So does that mean then that they won't be using SRM's in chicken and pig food either? If it does, then amen to that. We need to keep it out of anything that might be eaten by an animal that is going into the food chain.

Farmers_son,
When you quoted the report "As well, it addresses the possibility that contaminated grazing pastures could spread BSE, although the current science surrounding the environmental behavior of the disease is incomplete." I thought you had mis-typed the last line. Maybe it should read "is complete b********t" instead of "is incomplete"

[farmers_son]

LOL I think your typing is better than mine. I just heard on the radio that CFIA is predicting these new measures will cost the industry between 20 - 27 million dollars annually with the expected result that BSE will be eliminated from the Canadian herd in 10 years.
