46—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, March 19, 1977 Livestock future is bright UNIVERSITY PARK - The future of the United States livestock industry looks very bright because meat and milk will continue to be the primary source of protein in our diets, reports Dr. Roy M. Kottman, dean of the College of Agriculture and Home Economics at Ohio State University. Dr Kottman was keynote speaker at the 1977 Livestock Day held March 1 on The Pennsylvania State University Campus. “Per capita consumption of beef this year is ap proaching 200 pounds and for' this reason we are feeding 50 per cent more beef cattle than we did in 1950,” he said. Pennsylvania is par ticularly suited for livestock production due to an abundance of permanent pastures and land adaptable for growing silage, he noted. Commenting on the need for more research in animal production and nutrition, the Ohio State University dean pointed out that the beef industry could realize' an additional $3 billion return if research funds were available to develop more efficient production prac tices. “We need more work on animal growth rate and feed efficiency. We’re still trimming too much fat off of dressed carcasses,” Dr. Kottman said. “We also need a lot of research in finding out how to best utilize low quality forages.” High feed grain prices should not be here forever. The lack of rainfall in parts of the world that normally receive adequate amounts run in cycles.
