Injection of this GE hormone forces cows to increase their milk production by approximately 10% or more. Is rBST used worldwide? Currently rBST is widely used in the United States, but is banned in Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. How widely is rBST used in the United States? The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) advises that approximately one-third of dairy herds are injected with rBST, but significantly less than 5% of the commercially produced milk can be certified as coming from rBST-free herds.
