moo.

exciting news in milk. well, all dairy.

monsanto apparently wants to sell off its dairy hormone business because consumers no longer want hormones in the their milk. apparently, there has been so much media around the potential harmful nature of the hormone (to the cows, and to the humans that consume the cows) that monsanto wants to sell off its business and concentrate on other things. there is little proof in the effects, but cows taking it produce about an extra gallon of milk per day.

whoa. that's a lot of milk. and, do we need to be drinking bovine somatotropin? probably not.
