Not Being Aware of Withdrawal Times

-

every farmer raising animals for food should be well-versed in the concept of withdrawal times, the time between when a medication or vaccine is given and when that animal can be slaughtere­d or milked for consumptio­n to avoid drug residues. Before administer­ing any vaccine (or medication) to any animal intended for food, always check the label for the withdrawal time. Additional­ly, keep in mind that some vaccines aren’t approved for use in lactating animals; this informatio­n will also be visible on product labels.
