More details are starting to emerge on the beef protocol discussions between China and the U.S.
Oklahoma State University Extension livestock marketing specialist Derrell Peel says one of the requirements will be source verification.
“However, I think that’s pretty doable in what we call a ‘bookend’ system in the U.S, if we can document the original source of the cattle as well as where they ended up at the processing plant, and not necessarily all of the travels in between,” Peel says.
