Cows & QA

Quick question for ye; Non QA herd here, never felt the need to join as we sell everything live and it never made a jot of difference pricewise. However, I had a few cows that were tested doubtful last year but went clear on the re-test and these now can only be sent to slaughter when selling. Hope to fatten and sell…

Quick question for ye;

Non QA herd here, never felt the need to join as we sell everything live and it never made a jot of difference pricewise.

However, I had a few cows that were tested doubtful last year but went clear on the re-test and these now can only be sent to slaughter when selling.
Hope to fatten and sell before year end but my question is do all factories accept non- QA cows and any that do, will they cut the price simply because they are non - QA stock??

Appreciate the assistance as I'm considering whether its worth signing up to the scheme depending on the answers, would be pretty compliant as is but just hate the thought of being audited/answerable to another quango!!!:pac:
