About the whole issue of the farm raising of animals concerns me very much. I don't think that US or any other country should practice using different methods of raising the animals since I think that it should be classified as animal abuse. In the coutry where I am from, (Kazakhstan) we don't use these technological methoda for two reasons: first, Kazakhstan doesn't have enough money to support such a program; second, my culture doesn't accept meat or any other product that has been modified in any way. Amidst of all of the environmental discussions, seminars, and protests, some of us might wonder: "Where is the Greenpeace and the "Love of Animals" types of groups???" While the experts and Ph.D nerds are running around in the forests of Argentina and Brazil, trying to convince the local executives of "no deforestation" problem, in their own country, the US the GM and the Agro-Cultural companies are terrorizing livestock and their people with cruelty and indiferrence to humankind. I think there is no end to these sort of tests of agricultural and animal fields. The only thing we can hope for is that it doesn't have any long-term disadvantages or health problems.
