Veal is the meat of young male calfs, some people want it banned because they think that it is cruel.

Unfortunatly there are reasons for killing the young and will go on without the sale of the meat, most notably:

So that the Cows produce milk for human consumption

So that a farmer doesn't have to pay to feed and keep surplus steer when he only needs one or two males to sell as studs, the remaining steer will just serve as meat anyway so why not kill them when they are young.

The more males you have, you need much more land spread over a large area, resulting in a quicker contraction of infectious dieseases such as Blue tongue, Foot and Mouth, and Bovine TB.
