Over the summer, Egyptian officials rejected several import shipments of wheat, saying they were unfit for human consumption. Since then, the parliament has been pushing for stricter food standards. It looks like they got their wish.

NAIS is a Nasty Word

FLASH!!!   Today THE BOVINE published my testimony from the first USDA listening session.  I was honored by their comments, the use of photos of our family from the www.texaslonghorn.com ranch site and I am impressed with their continued battle for the family farms of this once great republic.  A military of volunteers are working day and night to protect the remaining independent livestock producers.  Each of us owe a great debt to the freedom fighters who refuse to bend over and let the governments abuse them.  Join the battle during this remaining time we have to over-throw the USDA in this vicious attempt to destroy the food production system world wide.  Whether it be quasi fake food safety bills or the nasty NAIS, it will destroy registered cattle production, interstate transport and multiply the cost of all US raised foods.
