Nebraska Becomes Latest State to Block Purchases, Require Labels on Lab-Grown Meat

From an article in Progressive Farmer by Chris Clayton

“Nebraska on Thursday, August 29, 2024, became the latest state to implement rules against lab-grown or cell-cultured meat products with Gov. Jim Pillen signing an executive order to restrict state agencies from buying such products…

“…Standing at local beef shop in Nebraska's largest county for beef production, Pillen announced the state Department of Agriculture would initiate a rule to ensure any lab-grown meat sold in the stores "are properly labeled and are not marketed next to natural meat on the same shelves." Pillen, one of Nebraska's largest pork producers, also said he would ask state senators next year to pass a law banning lab-grown meat in the state.”
