Cattle shipment ban lifted

OSHU, Japan - Photo taken on Aug. 25, 2011 shows one of a herd of Maesawa beef cattle, among the finest beef brands in Japan, in Oshu, Iwate Prefecture. The Japanese government lifted its ban on cattle shipments from Iwate, Fukushima and Tochigi prefectures the same day, saying sufficient measures are now in place to ensure that livestock are protected from radioactive contamination. With the latest move, cattle shipments will be resumed for all four prefectures that were instructed by the government between late July and early August to stop cattle shipments. (Kyodo)
