While the cow numbers aio
the same 50 million tre
mendous improvements have

From the 'standpoint of ci.un
crops alone tins nation ol 200

400 million people in teims ol
ealoi ic output he stated
Looking ahead Di DeGiatl
said the pei capita demand ioi
beef will leach about 130
pounds pei peison in the United
States b\ the \eai 1980 At that
time the nation will need an
other one million bleeding cows
per vear to pioduce enough
beef for the counti\'s demands

noted While 13 pei cent of the
land is used foi clued food
