"Croatia has confirmed that it was prepared for testing cattle
older than 30 months on time, since the beginning of June, as the
European Union requested, so we could trade normally with EU
members. It is a pity that tourism officials have not used this fact
for promotional purposes, to inform tourists from West Europe that
the quality control of beef is being carried out here as it is in
their countries. The right move would be if we would lower the limit
of control of cattle from 30 to 24 months," Sostaric said.
