What about " organic" dairy cattle, does their alfalfa have to be certified organic?
If the milk is "certified" organic, the cows AND the feed have to be "certified" organic as well.

Agrees....mostly a marketing scam.....not to mention the administration of certification had become corrupt and mis-managed.Really though, if you ask me and this is just my opinion from within the industry, certified organic produce and meat is such a scam.
Well, yes, supposedly.What about " organic" dairy cattle, does their alfalfa have to be certified organic?
To be certified as organic, all cattle should meet the following criteria: Born and raised on certified organic pasture. Never receive antibiotics. Never receive growth-promoting hormones. Are fed only certified organic grains (corn is a grain) and grasses.

I was speaking of the food marketing these days, I do not believe the labels.
Organic certification is mostly a money making joke.

My brother was, as an organic truck farmer for the last 40 years.Are you certified? Do you actually KNOW all the regulations, or are you just quoting other "opinions" from elsewhere?
So what happens when someone's prized organic bull or cow gets pneumonia or gets a wound requiring antibiotics? Is it culled, or is it treated?

He went thru the certification hoops until it became a joke...both the relaxing of the 'rules' and the failure of followup.
His customers know his practices, he doesn't bother with the certification.
