monsanto isn't a business i would own stoc in, and the way cattle is
slaughtered has issues, but think about it, the person breeding/raising the
ones that go to market must treat the breeding stock well or their
production will be limited and they will lose money, this as silly as these
animal rights fools having a fit to make farmers house their cattle in barns
in the winter? do youu know what you get if you stall house cattle in
winter? you get cattle with lung viruses that kill them off, overheating
in winter is a huge issue for cattle, my father has scheduling birthing in
all seasons, and december to feb allowes for the best birthing for the cows
and calves, also shows him veryquickly which calves are weak, and which cows
aren't mothering properly, Lee
