BMC Reopens, No Kill For Europe

Among 1,500 cattle, some were infected and others had been in contact with the infected lot. The risk group was culled recently. The BMC's two abattoirs, which reopen today, will still not be able to export beef to lucrative European markets, they said in a statement.

BMC's CEO, Dr Motshudi Raborokwe, said they are re-opening the two abattoirs in Francistown and Lobatse in order to come to the rescue of farmers who have not been able to sell their stock in the last two weeks.
