D22—Lancaster February 27,1982 Beef cattle conference features ‘best bet’ feeding UNIVERSITY PARK Improved feeding systems for beef cattle will be among featured topics at the every other-year Beef Cattle Conference to be held March 5 and 6 at Penn Slate. The event will take place both days here in the Meats Laboratory^ Different methods of using the corn plant for cattle rations will be among the feeding options described by Dan Loy, graduate assistant in animal industries. Loy will compare the benefits of corn silage with •'earlage”, a feeding system using chopped and ensiled corn ears, including husks. Loy’s experiments with cattle feeding at Penn State have tested various ration com ponents which he will describe March 6. Loy has compared the ef fectiveness of various rations as applied to different beef cattle breeds, various interest rates, and changing prices in buying feeder cattle. Discussing the cattle feeding situation, conference chairman Harold W. Harpsler said income from beef cattle feeding has been low or even unprofitable during the past two years. He said this was created by high feed prices, “skyrocketing” interest rates, and relatively high prices tor feeder calf replacements. At the conference, Harpster will describe use of computers as one of the better methods of managing beef cattle feeders. He considers the microcomputer "the latest instrument to revolutionize cattle feeding and all of agriculture in making management decisions.” One Penn State animal scientist will center his comments around the question, what is the most profitable type of animal m the teedlot— steers, heifers, or bulls? Erskine H. Cash will describe nutrition and management programs to maximize the efficiency of feeding bulls, steers, and heifers. Another topic of in terest to the cattle feeder will be a “cow to carcass” discussion by Lowell L. Wilson, professor of animal science, and John H. Ziegler, professor of meat science. Lester A. Burdette, Extension animal scientist, will speak on “Management • Alternatives for Calves.” Speaking at the an nua 1 Cattlemen’s Banquet March 5 will be Michael O’Feild, vice president of the Farm Credit Banks of Baltimore, MD. His' topic will be, "Finan cing Agriculture For Tomorrow—Optimism, Not Pessimism.” The banquet will be held at Galsby’s in Stale College, at 7 p.m., preceded by a social hour.
