Reader questions
medicated feed
regulations
I read and reread the article titled
"Only option to license is making
unmedicated feed" (news section,
February 2001 issue).
Am I to interpret from this that it
will be illegal for anyone to buy feed
that doesn't have antibiotics and
concentrates in it? My brother buys
some kind of inferior food for his hens
called "scratchings" or some such
word. He says that's the only thing he
can -get for them that isn't full of
"additives". Will he now be obliged to
grow his own grain to get natural feed?
If I've interpreted your article
correctly, it's a government regulation
on a par with the moronic legislation
that attaches adjoining farms to each
other so the owner must get a severance
to sell. (To my amazement, I found it
even applies to Tots in town with houses
on each.)
The $70 a sample for testing
explains the reason for the new
legislation. It's a money maker for the
government.°

Ed. Note: The intent of the article was
to explain that if you make your own
feed you would have to get a licence to
add medication to feeds you
manufacture. If you do not obtain a
licence you will only be able to make
unmedicated feed or buy whole
medicated feed.°
