Nebraska issues embargo on California, New Mexico cattle
Published Thursday, July 24, 2008 at 05:58 AM
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) _ The Nebraska Department of Agriculture has issued importation embargoes for beef cattle and bison entering the state from California and New Mexico.
The embargoes are due to recent discoveries of animals with tuberculosis.
The embargoes will require beef cattle and bison entering Nebraska from the two states to meet some standards set by the Nebraska Department of Agriculture. To learn about the standards, contact the state ag department by calling 800-572-2437
State Veterinarian Dr. Dennis Hughes said the embargo goes into effect immediately and that it should help safeguard the state's livestock.
