Something to think About,
      How could the extreme measures that PROPOSITION 2 create for 
animal confinement practices in California, if voters approve, benefit 
conservation and bring added value to our grasslands here in the 
Midwest. Firstly, view the web site of PROP 2.
Next view the web site of tallgrass fed beef. Grass likes to grow 
standing in place. Cows like to move to growing grass. The current 
practices of cutting grass and corn and bringing it to livestock 
confined to small spaces seems odd. With all the Whole Food stores 
burgeoning in our urban areas and the consumer demand for less toxins in 
their foods--like growth hormones, lower cholesterol meats--I believe 
now is the time to promote the sustainability of our native forages and 
what science espouses and the
healthiest choices. It is a win win for producers, wildlife/environment 
and the public's nutritional needs. frank oberle
