Beef trade with Japan has taken a big step forward. They have given 35 beef plants a clean bill of health which will stop 100% inspections of imports in Japan and they will scale back to only random checks. This is a good step, now to work on getting them to accept something other than boneless beef to be imported. Sometimes things have to proceed one step at a time and this is one of them. Hopefully some slaughter plant won't screw up and shipo the wrong thing to Japan and screw this all up. We'll see.
I'm just taking one step at a time. I could zigzag one way, but it's not usually on purpose. Beck
