Hay sample (8/3)

8/3 (6:42pm): We tested a sample of dried hay from Nevada. No isotopes from Japan were detected in the hay sample. The hay from that region is often shipped to the Central Valley of California as feed for livestock. In fact, much of the hay for cows in the Bay Area comes from as far away as Canada. Though the hay sample is from only one location, this sample may provide evidence that long-term contamination of milk is unlikely.
