The neighbor uses glyphosate occasionally to spot spray weeds but does not use any other synthetic inputs. Is it ok for the CNG cattle to graze on the neighbor’s pasture? *

You are inspecting a small CNG goat dairy. During the farm tour, you notice that one of the does is laying on her side breathing heavily. Upon closer inspection, you see that her udder is swollen, red and hot to the touch. The producer tells you that the doe likely has mastitis and has been deteriorating for the last week. You ask if the producer has sought veterinary treatment for the sick goat. The producer answers that no, of course they haven’t called the vet, because CNG prohibits antibiotics and other veterinary drugs. What would be your BEST response to explain the livestock health care standard to the producer? *
