BQA Tip of the Month: Be buckshot aware

A core principle of BQA is the implementation of management practices that prevent the adulteration of beef from foreign objects such as bullets, birdshot and buckshot. Never use a shotgun to gather cattle or use a firearm to encourage the neighbor’s bull to go back across the fence. Additionally, make sure hunters are educated about this issue and that they are aware of the locations of any livestock during a hunt.
For more information about BQA and the dates of upcoming BQA training sessions, please visit texasbeefquality.com.
