The Truth


 

 

As you stand by the fence post you look upon the Black Angus cattle in the pasture, grazing. Then you turn to look at the newborn calve lying in the tall grass by its mother.

You then go out to the town and see the meat isle of the store disserted. Why?

This is due to people growing afraid of the agricultural field. They think that the animals are mistreated and abused, but none of these lies are true! People read the false information and don’t go deeper to find who put that on the web.

I hope to change this in my future and put the true information out so that people can see the truth and throw out the non-factual information.

If we continue down this path we will continue eating fake, unhealthy foods and that field of Angus will disappear with all of the other animals and crops. The fact in this is that over half of our food that people eat that don’t believe in meat is unhealthy and without eating meat you can’t get real protein. Meat gives us those nutrients that we need to live healthy lives!

So after 45 years your children will be standing at that same fence post looking upon there beautiful, healthy, and happy herd of registered Black Angus. That calves offspring now produce you your daily meat intake and keep you healthy. Without people that know the agricultural industry, like me this would all be gone. In my future I hope to change the views of this wonderful industry and help people understand the truth behind it all!

 

Fence post leaning and cows mooing,

This agriculture is helping us grow.

 

People think that this is hurting,

But really it is making the world better.

 

The fact is that we need these cows to help us stay healthy,

If you eat nothing but vegetables and fruits how do you know meat is bad?

 

Stay true to the truth and the past.
