Frequently Asked Questions
Grass-Fed and Organic Beef
Yes. “100% grass-fed” means that after being weaned from their mother’s milk, cattle cannot be fed grain or grain by-products. They must be given continuous access to pasture during the growing season and receive a diet derived solely from grasses and forage.
Cattle that qualify for certified USDA Organic beef programs are raised without antibiotics or added hormones and fed a non-GMO diet.
The USDA strongly encourages cattle producers to maintain consistent preventative health care programs. Ranchers have many tools available to keep their animals healthy and safe, including low-stress handling, veterinary care, and the use of well-established, approved vaccines. All health practices for Organic cattle are science-based and regulated by the USDA and the National Organic Program.
Recently, some consumers have asked about the use of mRNA vaccines. The mRNA vaccine technology has not been approved by the USDA for use in cattle, and there are no mRNA vaccines available for cattle.
