This article is incomplete.

Why are they having to do this?

Has there been some type of horrible event that has caused the new regulation?


Have to click through:

quote:

Leftover brewing grains have been fed to livestock since the dawn of agriculture, so this is a pretty radical shift. The proposed new requirements for animal feed handling stipulate that the feed has to be dried, analyzed and packaged before being donated to farmers (the spent grains are generally given away at the end of the brewing process), at substantial expense.

Still not enough information, but this already sounds like a giant waste of time for everyone involved. But the FDA probably gets to analyze it!

I saw that but it didn't say what they needed to analyze it for.

And Big Ag gets to sell more grain to pig farmers.

I would bet this is where the pressure is coming from, Big Ag.
