Country-of-Origin Labeling
Under Section 304 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, most products entering the United States
must be clearly marked so that the "ultimate purchaser" can identify the country of origin.
Imported meat products are subject to this requirement: imported carcasses and parts of carcasses must
be labeled, and individual retail (consumer-ready) packages also must be labeled.
Imported carcasses or parts generally go to U.S. plants for further processing. The labeling
policy considers these plants as the "ultimate purchasers." Therefore, any products these
plants make from the imported meat (for example, ground beef patties made in the United States from
beef that originated in Canada or elsewhere) do not have to bear country-of-origin labels.

The USDA reports the saturated fat in cooked goat
meat (chevon) is 40% less than that of chicken - even with the skin removed! Out of 4 favorite
exotic meats (venison, rabbit, buffalo, and chevon), chevon is the lowest in cholesterol! Chevon (aka cabrito)
is 50-65% lower in fat than similarly prepared beef, but has similar protein content!

of Agriculture, Washington D.C. US Government Printing Office, 1981.

Farm's Certified American Chevon TM is raised in Northern California on lush native pastures. No added
hormones or antibiotics to our meats; just great genetics make this one of the largest weaning weight meat
goat operations in the United States. We have been working with superior genetics in the industry
to produce top milking does that will produce up to 50% larger weights at weaning. This means larger
chops, legs and cube steaks than the average chevon. Don't let anyone fool you, we are the ONLY breeder
of the Moneymaker meat goat, the meat goat with superior milk
production!
What a unique gift idea for the ones you love or your employees!
