[QUOTE="milkloss, post: 1054496, member: 56"] I think you be be fairly sure RT will give no protection against horses turning into cows as they go through the slaughter house; that was down to others cutting cost and making money on the sly, not farmers. And anyhow, RT stayed quiet during the whole saga because they weren't sure that their labelled products weren't doctored with horse, pig chicken or whatever other carp they could through into processed food. Fat lot of good they were then eh?! It's all well and good progressive farmers like yourself pushing the WLA idea but have you really thought out the mechanism of making it work? Did you read my post re the stickers idea, data on ear tag idea? Someone needs to really get a grip on this, the NFU hasn't I'm fairly sure. Sort the protocols, the mechanisms and the REAL benefits first rather than floating an idea around that is merely paying lip service to the whimsical ideals of the consumers and super market or otherwise we will have a whole sh!t storm of hassle and trouble. We are producing great beef under the RT already, don't funk it up thinking out loud about something that no one has absolutely any idea how they are going to make it work or pay for itself. [/QUOTE]
