Participants from Pennsylvania included Roy Neer-Quail Run Ranch, Slippery Rock and Tom Soboleski-Windridge Farm, Waterford. For their time, these cattlemen received a bird’s eye view of the industry and the changes going on within it. While there were no easy answers, industry themes revolved around product and price discovery. As an example. Tom Meyer, corporate sales and training mana ger for Excel, one of the nation’s top three beef packers explained, “Quality is where we’re headed today...it’s not just the retailer who needs to sell beef.” Ralph Chain, owner of Chain Land and Cattle, a sprawling com mercial cow/calf, stocker and feedlot operation based in Oklaho ma added that if cattlemen want a premium, they have to be willing to build a superior product first.
