Maine launched a meat-inspection program in 2003 to create more slaughterhouses and greater convenience for small farmers who were earlier inspected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Maine\u27s meat processors are involved in retail sales and in custom butchering, which does not require the presence of an inspector. With details on Maple Lane Farms in Charleston, L.P.
