Mr. ROB FISHER (President, Oklahoma City Stockyards): Most of the cattle are turned out on winter wheat to graze all winter, and they sell them in March and April.
Early versions of new labor restrictions still being hashed out in Congress would have barred children under 16 from operating power-driven farm equipment and kept anyone under 18 from working at agricultural co-ops and stockyards (the latest version would let kids keep running machines on their parents' spreads).
