Recent articles in the U.K. sporting press record that; "some farmers are refusing to give permission for pigeon [A major pest in the U.K.] shooting on crops such as peas and laid cereal crops [ie:barley and wheat, laid flat by rain and wind] because some purchasors are refusing/reluctant to buy these crops due to concerns over potential liabilities in the event that the end consumer could ingest lead shot." One might expect that this approach,may be tried in certain areas of North America in order to justify a ban on lead shot.
