Beef Fattener DES Battles Over Cattle Meat Quality
Washington reports say widespread DES use in cattle fattening lowers beef quality for consumers while government officials, manufacturers, and industry sources dispute the claim. About 75 percent of 40 million cattle are treated, with residues detected in about 1 in 200 cattle. Packagers blame softness and moisture, while officials insist treated beef is comparable in quality. Industry studies note short feeding periods can reduce fat but differences fade after 100 days.
