NCBA’s president-elect is weighing in on lab-grown meat. He says that the group is not interested in banning it; they are more concerned with the labeling.
According to Gene Copenhaver, “Telling Americans what they can and cannot buy at the grocery store does not align with NCBA’s policy book or our conservative values... and setting a precedent that the federal government can remove a product from the shelves completely is not wise for the cattle industry, when we have no idea who might be sitting in the White House or in Congress ten years from now.”
He went on to share that NCBA is ready to compete with these products and is encouraged by the market signals from Americans who say that they are not interested in fake products, but says the fight has to be fair.
That is why NCBA has been working on regulations and legislation that require very clear labeling on these products.
