Swiss Cows Get The Wrong Grass

Switzerland's Agriculture Ministry has told farmers to stop feeding cows cannabis. Recent advertisements promoted feeding hemp to farm animals even after a March 2005 law banning its use. Officials warned that farmers who dope their cows will be prosecuted, according to Ananova. Farmers believe THC, the active ingredient in cheap and easy-to-grow cannabis, leads to great milk yield.
But officials in the Agriculture Ministry said THC can get into the milk and create a health risk. They also said that there was a risk that Swiss cheese products could be contaminated.
