Something New in the Milk
Natural farmer David Haxton MacRaven of has a post up yesterday about a new development in the dairy field: cows that are genetically re-engineered to produce their own antibiotics:
[M]astitis has gotten out of hand because we feed massive doses of sub therapeutic antibiotics to our cows. To solve the problem we’re going to genetically engineer the cow to produce it’s own antibiotics.To which the bacteria that cause mastitis will never gain resistance, I’m sure.
