Virginia’s agriculture department is working to get the state’s TB-free status restored. All the cattle bought by the Floyd County farmer and sold from the infected herd are being traced. In addition all herds within a mile and a half distmce from the affected rpoduceFs property are being tested at state expense.
“This won’t bring Virginia’s cattle industry to a standstill,” J. Carlton Cornier III, commissioner of the Deparetment of Agriculture and Consumer Services, said. “But it will cause inconvenience and expense to our producers. That’s why we’re working very hard to regain the TB-free status.”
