Nebraska issues embargo on California, New Mexico cattle after tuberculosis discovered
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) -- The Nebraska Department of Agriculture has issued importation embargoes for beef cattle and bison entering the state from California and New Mexico.
The embargoes were ordered because of recent discoveries of animals with tuberculosis.
The embargoes will require beef cattle and bison entering Nebraska from the two states to meet some standards set by Nebraska's agency.
Nebraska state veterinarian Dennis Hughes says the embargo goes into effect immediately and that it should help safeguard the state's livestock.
