No concrete improvements by VanDrie and Pali to end illegal calf-import from Ireland

The feeding intervals for calves on this route are not respected, meaning that calves (at this … [Read more...] about No concrete improvements by VanDrie and Pali to end illegal calf-import from Ireland

January 14, 2022
