Smart move if it really cuts red tape—low-risk should mean low hassle, but only if safety isn’t compromised.

Less government in our farms means more freedom to innovate—24 months between exams is a win for farmers and taxpayers alike.

Stretching exams to two years? That’s just handing risk a longer leash—farmers deserve better oversight, not a vacation for watchdogs.
