Do Packers Really Care if Japan Wants Our Beef?

[Anonymous]

This whole argument is moot Sandman because the Japanese government has agreed with our position on testing cattle less than 24 months of age with current testing methodology.

THis is where I think the Japs are back to their old tricks. We all know how fast calves are being finnished with these high prices - very few see 20 months. So resume beef trade? tricks and traps

SH, "20 months is not sound science BUT THAT IS JAPAN'S POSITION, NOT THE U.S.'S POSITION."

Japan's position was and is still 100% testing, too.

Sandman: "Japan's position was and is still 100% testing, too."

No, that's your position!

Japan's position has moved away from 100% BSE testing.
