U.S. packer Creekstone to test all cattle for BSE
2004-02-20 22:09:35 GMT (Reuters)
WASHINGTON, Feb 20 (Reuters) - Meatpacker Creekstone Farms Premium Beef, with an eye on the export market, will test all of its slaughter cattle for mad cow disease, its president said on Friday at a U.S. Agriculture Department forum.
Dozens of nations banned imports of U.S. beef following the Dec. 23 announcement of the first U.S. case of mad cow disease. While testing of all slaughter cattle has been suggested as a way to assure food safety, U.S. officials say the step is not needed because the disease is found in older animals.
"We will be BSE-testing every animal that comes through our facility," said Creekstone Farms president John Stewart, using the abbreviation for the disease, bovine spongiform encephalopathy.
Speaking during USDA's annual outlook forum, Stewart appealed to the USDA for speedy approval of the BSE testing method that would be used at Creekstone Farms' beef plant in Arkansas City, Kansas.
