Beta-agonists are non-hormonal growth promoters increasing muscle mass while improving growth rate of cattle. Several countries prohibit the use of these substances to raise livestock and the importation of these animals. For instance, in the European Union, the directive 2003/74/EC prohibits the use in stockfarming of beta-agonists.
