Lead: Reuters 26 February UK health minister Elliot Morley said on Tuesday that the UK wants to export meat products to replace livestock exports In a statement, Morey pointed out that many farmers and traders believe that large-scale livestock trade is unnecessary and that livestock trade may also be replaced by trade in meat products Morey earlier met with a delegation from the world organization for the protection of animals (ciwf) and accepted a petition signed by half of British veterinarians to end the livestock trade The petition was signed by 3400 veterinarians in a few weeks after the European Union admitted there was no animal FMD in the UK Before foot-and-mouth disease, about 800000 sheep were exported every year.
