Why Cadarga Born & Bred Stays True to Tradition
If you’ve been following conversations in the farming and food industry lately, you might have heard talk about mRNA vaccines for livestock. It’s a hot topic, raising plenty of questions for producers and consumers alike.
So, what’s it all about?
What are mRNA vaccines in cattle?
mRNA vaccines are a relatively new technology that’s being trialled in agriculture. Just like in human medicine, they’re designed to trigger an immune response in animals, teaching their bodies to recognise and fight certain diseases.
Advocates suggest that this technology could help manage outbreaks and improve herd health. However, because it’s new, there’s still a lot of uncertainty about how it will affect not just the cattle, but the long-term perception of beef and dairy products in the marketplace.
The consumer perspective
For many Australians, food choices come down to trust, transparency, and tradition. Families want to know where their food comes from and what practices are behind it. The debate over mRNA vaccines has highlighted how important that connection is.
Some people feel comfortable with the idea of new technology in farming. Others prefer beef raised without mRNA intervention, valuing natural herd management practices and tried-and-true approaches.
Where Cadarga Born & Bred stands
At Cadarga Born & Bred, we believe in keeping things straightforward and transparent. That’s why we can proudly say:
👉 We do not use mRNA vaccines in our cattle.
