Question: The livestock industry – some controversial issues

Answer: The British livestock industry is the subject of a number of controversial issues. These include matters of public concern such as animal welfare, growth promoters, biotechnological procedures, the nutritional value of meat and BSE. There are many misconceptions on these matters and concerns are often needless. Legislation, unknown to many consumers, is in place on these matters and has been adhered to in the UK and other EU members states for many years. The divide between the urban dweller and agriculture is widening. There is therefore a need for closer communication between interested parties.
