It is important to advertise consistently, year 'round.

The implication is that cows are bad for the environment. However, those knowledgeable of the agricultural industry know that the opposite is true. In Canada, ground beef is a by- product of our domestic dairy in- dustry. Only 0.3% of beef consum- ed comes from Brazil. McDonald's Restaurants for ex- ample, use no Brazilian beef in North America. Canadian beef has nothing to do with the destruc- tion of the Amazon rain forest. Cattle are not major producers of methane gas and, therefore, cannot be categorized as a main cause of the 'greenhouse effect." According to Environment Canada, carbon dioxide from cars, furnaces, and other combus- tion, accounts for 50% of greenhouse gases. The En- vironmental Protection Agency estimates methane from all ruminants worldwide (cattle, sheep, camels, goats, buffalo, elk, The ruminant ability of the cow enables her to digest the cellulose in forage, whereas humans can- not. Ruminants can convert low quality feedstuffs into high quali- ty food products for humans. Cattle graze on pasture and eat hay for majority of their two year lifespan. Grain is generally fed only during the last 3 to 6 months. World grain surpluses are presently keeping grain prices low, and are causing economic hardships to farmers. The elimination of the beef industry as a market for Canadian grain would do little, if anything, to feed starving people in third would countries. It is well accepted by agriculturalists that livestock production plays a major role in soil conservation practices. The use of forage legumes in crop rotations adds fertility to the soil by natural fixation of nitrogen from the air; reduces weeds, in- sects and disease with a minimal use of pesticides; acts as a cover crop to prevent soil erosion by wind and water; and maintains soil organic matter and soil struc- ture. Livestock manure is recycl- ed to the soil as organic fertilizer.
