How will USDA limit loans to curtail outlays for these programs-by reducing the loan rate, raising interest charged, or changing eligibility? The dairy program presents special questions. USDA might simply ,reduce the Federal rate of support for manufacturing milk, now at $11.60 per hundred pounds (cwt.). However

CRS~20 The use of bovine growth hormone to increase milk production is an example of biotechnological progress which does not contribute to increased profitability. A dairy farmer with 100 cows would spend $4,000 per year for the hormone drug and $9,000 for additional feed concentrate. At today's support prices, this $13,000 investment would return $17,000 in additional milk receipts

cRs—34 bound to take a particular action under NEPA. While FDA must uphold both NEPA and the FDCA, NEPA requires only that environmental effects be explored before major Federal action (e.g., drug approval) is taken.41,42 However, NEPA does not prescribe the action to be taken after environmental effects are considered. On the other hand, the FDCA requires that drugs that meet the statutory requirements of safety and effectiveness be approved. FDA has stated that ultimately, drug approval decisions are necessarily based only on scientific considerations having to do with whether a drug is safe and effective.43« There may be a need to reconcile NEPA and FDCA if, for example, BST were found to be safe and effective but caused significant environmental effects. In balancing these two laws, such factors as the significance of the environmental impact, the degree to which the effect posed a risk to public health, and the amount by which environmental effects could be mitigated by requiring prescriptions or warning labels on the drug would influence the action FDA finally takes. Efficacy and Animal Health Issues It appears that among the more substantial issues to be resolved before BST can be approved are the long-term efficacy and safety to the cow. Currently available data were collected from cows treated with BST under optimum research conditions over a relatively short interval of time. Under 41 21 can 25.42. 42 42 use 4332. 43 FDA letter.
