Prevent the FDA from interfering with the Economically beneficial symbiotic relationship between Brewer and The Farmer.

Created by J.M. on March 27, 2014

The FDA has taken upon itself to potentially regulate the relationship between the Farmer and the Brewer. Farmers have relied upon the feed from WBG or wet brewers gains as livestock food and nutrient rich fertilizer for centuries. Without the beneficial exchange between the farmers and the brewing community, many jobs would be lost due to high FDA regulation costs. It is not within our best interest as craft drinking/ brewing communities to allow this eventually harmful regulation to move forward. The impact alone to the economy and environment should seriously be considered. Spent Grains from brewers and distillers are fed to farm based livestock often for no cost. Thus, resulting in very limited ecological impact. The local livestock are fed well and help keep consumers cost low.
