As a hands on farmer, it is heartbreaking to watch my animals die while waiting on a Vet to come during after hours and sometimes even during the day. It seems like all my hard work and energy as well as money is just lost. We live in such a big county that vets are unable to cover most of it on a daily, less known weekly basis. Farmers hands are tied waiting for qualified help to come to our rescue. Help this ruling to go through for the sake of our livestock not having to suffer when we could possibly have qualified vets in our area (which is a big county).
