BACK TO BEEF HEART

Hello Prodigydiscus,

In Australia, it is most unlikely you will have to worry about hormone fed cattle. I haven't sold any for a while but when you are selling as far as I know you still have to fill out a declaration that they have not been given numerous things, including hormones. Don't know about the feedlot cattle, although I suspect that they would not have hormones either. (very different to the chickens you buy and the eggs you may eat from poor battery hens!) I certainly buy organic when I can, grow some veggies, we have our own cattle killed for eating - no pesticides on my property, living in the middle of large commercial farms growing potatoes and running sheep and cattle I see what chemicals/pesticides are poured into the soil ( the farmer on the opposite hill from us had a cropduster spraying 200 hundred acres for four hours last weekend, some of which was only to defoliate the crops for easier harvesting and which could have been slashed with a tractor).
