The Senate Standing Committee on Agriculture has heard from members of the Canadian Cattlemens Association.

The Committee is holding hearings focused on the income crisis that is currently impacting the Hog and Beef Sectors.

 

John Masswohl, the Director of Government Relations for the CCA, says one of the key messages they passed along was the need to review the regulatory environment in Canada.

 

Specifically, Masswohl points to the enhanced feed ban and the fact that specific risk materials can no longer go into fertilizer, pet, or livestock feed.
