[QUOTE="Ffermer Bach, post: 7408752, member: 51054"] 50 years ago (1970) there were 1900 small abattoirs, now I believe there are only 62 left, so I don't think there would be the capacity. This is partly due to the law of unintended consequences of government regulations. When I was in New Zealand (35 years ago), I was on a dairy farm in Taranaki and they had a cull cow slaughtered in the field (HIAB on the back of the truck to hoist the cow up to bleed/chop up) then taken off to the chiller.
