. Extracting natural protein from such animals is expensive and timerconsuming. The glands of at least 200 slaughtered cows are needed to produce enough natural BST for one daily supplement for a single cow.5 The recent rapid advances in biotechnology have made the mass production of BST commercially feasible. Scientists have isolated the gene responsible for naturally occurring EST and transferred

. Ms. Alleng of Resources for the Future, cited a New York study indicating that the State's farmers could afford to pay up to 50 cents per BST injection if the all-milk price were $14.44/cwt. and corn averaged $3.25 per bushel. iThey could only afford to pay 20 cents per daily dose if the all-milk price were $11.44/cwt. and corn were $2.75 per bushel.

pushing more farmers out of business. "In the short run, improvements in economic efficiency can rarely be made without making some sectors worse off while improving others," the December 1984 Cornell report commented. Critics argue that this downside outweighs the touted benefits of the new technology.i Most importantly, it threatens to flood a market already saturated by too much milk

CRS~23 While conceding at the House hearing that larger operators tend to adopt new technology more rapidly than smaller ones, Dr. Jorgensen of the University of Wisconsin agreed that the technology itself does not inherently favor large herds. "In fact, unless manufacturers can overcome the problem of daily injections, this may be a technology that works better in smaller herds, and more carefully managed herds than in megaherds held in loose housing," he said- THE U.S. DAIRY INDUSTRY AT A CROSSROADS The advent of BST could place the U.S. dairy industry at a crossroads. A producer will either produce the same amount of milk with fewer cows, ore i produce more milk with his or her present, or perhaps a larger, herd. What makes either road passable is the ability of BST to lower production costs, proponents observe. These lower costs will enable producers to provide milk and dairy products to consumers at lower prices, according to proponents,. who argue that the greater efficiencies promised by BST are merely typical of the advances that have enabled U.S. farmers to provide an abundance of food for consumers at the lowest relative cost in the world. USDA's Wilson summarized these arguments at the House hearing: The potential benefits of bGH are greater efficiency, lower costs of production, increased consumption, improved profitability for remaining dairy farmers, a greater ability to compete in the world dairy market and also to compete with substitute dairy products. Noting that other countries already are conducting their own research on BST, Wilson added: We cannot, nor should we stop technological development from taking place. Attempting to halt technology in this country will only place us at a comparative disadvantage relative to other countries which continue to pursue new technology. m -
