Is cat poo harmful to vegatable/human health?

They don't want to weed out the consequential seeds in the hay spawning unwanted growth. E-coli is spread to meat in butchering from the internal part of the digestive tract of the animal. Sanitation is always important. Segregation of internal contents of the digestive tract from the meat is just as important. Its more common with chickens. But, exists with cattle as well. Maybe some one can address "worming" in horses. I read once that the medicines that kill worms in horses guts will also kill them in the ground. The gist of the article was that if you are buying horse manure, find out first if the horse(s) have been recently de-wormed. I'd appreciate a response from any one who could talk authoritatively to this subject. In response to the second paragraph of Dioclese's response, this is why there are laws that limit the fecal (FECAL) content in our food (How much fecal content are you comfortable with?). At a poultry "processor", Don't understand where you're going with the question, or why it was posed to me. What question? I didn't ask any question of you. Perhaps you weren't the OP, wouldn't the first time and I'm sure it won't be the last time I mis-con-screwed a post. You didn't write, "E-coli is spread to meat in butchering from the internal part of the digestive tract of the animal."? That is what I was responding to. If it wasn't you. You have my apologizes. Although, I don't see anything reprehensible in my response to apologize for. 75,000 to 90,000 birds are "processed" a night. At over 180 birds a minute, some things get by the killing crew. Animals have to die for us to eat meat, but they don't have to be tortured first (factory farms). Living conditions have changed little in the push to "organic" meat. The difference is in the fodder and the withdrawal of antibiotics. I recommend that you try to find a source of humanely raised meat, and eat less of it. Are you responding to the OP or myself in regards to the immediate above sentence? Am working on a movable chicken coop on skids, a 2 section chicken yard. One section in fallow, the other holding the chickens, section rotated every 2 years. Yet another section for providing feed for the chickens, where they can browse after harvest as well. You may want to take a look at a site that Charlie, the big lunk head, suggested awhile back http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/view/id/214 . It may seem to start a little slow but it has a big finish. -- Billy Impeach Pelosi, Bush & Cheney to the Hague http://angryarab.blogspot.com/ http://rachelcorriefoundation.org/ |
