Packers may only feed their own livestock for their own slaughter. The act aims to prevent market manipulation, with McLain noting no serious problems so far.

Fuel shortages loom as harvest dries grain risks mold
Washington AP reports National Grain and Feed Association spokesman James V Hauser warns fuel shortages next fall could impair grain drying and storage, enabling mold growth and mycotoxins like aflatoxin. He cites As pergillus flavus and moisture levels around 18 percent as key risks to the food supply. Milk production in May reached just over 11 billion pounds, down two percent from last year with average output per cow at 04 payinds.
