Elo—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, March 20,1982
UNIVERSITY PARK.- The
importance of marketing received
a lion’s share of attention during
the biennial Beef Cattle Con
ference held recently at Penn
State.
H. Louis Moore, College of
Agriculture economist, summed u
up by saying that aggressive
marketing is the greatest need
facing the eastern beef cattle
business. Competition is keen, he
announced, from already efficient
poultry marketing in particular.
He predicted that production of
poultry broilers will expand 2.4
percent yearly until about the year
2000, with turkey production ex
panding 2.6 percent annually. Beef
cattle production will go up at a
slightly lower rate, at about 1.5
percent annually, he said.
The Penn State farm economist
indicated the price margin bet
ween poultry and red meats will
widen in the future, keeping
poultry meats a best buy. He added
that mechanical debonmg is “old
hat” today in the poultry business
but is not used widely with beef and
other red meats. Although
mechanical debonmg gives con
sumers lower cost meat, labeling
-restrictions have limited its use in
the red meat industry.
About 88 percent of the beef sold
to stores by the end of 1982 will be
marketed as boxed beef, he
commented. Boxed beef describes
the shipment of loins, rounds, and
other basic cuts m cardboard
boxes. In the older delivery

Cattle conference stresses marketing
method, carcasses or sides of beef
are shipped from packers to
wholesale outlets and retail stores.
He called attention to several
aspects of good management that
could help to keep cattle producers
m business during the next 10
years:
“Be as close as possible to your
markets,” he suggested. “Un
derstand as much as you can about
future markets. Make use of the
price edge that eastern cattlemen
and farmers have in the current
fuel crisis. Make every effort to
produce competitive meats. Use
the most efficient size operation
you can develop in producing
cattle.”
Moore claimed Pennsylvania
cattle producers are m a better
competitive position in cattle
slaughter than are producers in
neighboring states. Fifty-eight
percent of all Northeast cattle
slaughter is carried out in Penn
sylvania, compared to just over
one-third of 30 years ago.
Cattle producers were advised to
be optimistic about the future of
the beef cattle business by Michael
O’Feild, vice president of the
Farm Credit Banks of Baltimore.
4 ‘Tell the public, in various ways,
that food is a good buy.” CFeild
stated. “You should get your story
out to the consuming public. Make
them understand that the price of
food is cheap in the U.S. The
average American spends less of
his disposable income for food than
any other human being in the

everybody knows as much about
agriculture as you do. Less than 3

“An even better way to convince
consumers that foods are good
buys is to show them,” O’Field
declared. “Take the opportunity to
invite a chamber of commerce,

Fitzpatrick said the

summer.
“This will be the first
extensive, objective
study of the impacts on
agriculture of
deregulation based on
the Staggers Rail Act
and the Motor Carrier
Act of 1980,” Fitzpatrick
said. “In initiating this

explain to them that production
