KANSAS CITY, Mo. -
“Money, Energy and Con
sumer Demand: Seeking A
Management Strategy” has
been announced as the
theme for Livestock
Marketing Congress ‘BO,
conducted annually by

Institute, Kansas City. The
Congress, the industry’s
premier conference on
livestock economics, will be
held June 18-20 m San Luis

not new, no other three
topics will have a greater
impact on the livestock
industry m the nert few

L. Nock said in announcing
the theme. “Our approach in
dealing with them will go
beyond merely providing a

plain fact is that there is a
shortage and all of us face
energy adjustments. How do
we manage today’s energy
costs, and tomorrow’s
energy uncertainties?”
