FOR CATTLEMEN SOON Food shoppers' preference for lean, red meat is working gradual changes In the "finishing*' und marketing of beef animals, says an Oregon State college extension livestock marketing specialist. W .’Y. Fowler points out that fat meat has become a drug on the' market Food retailers are primarily, interested in the per centage of saleable red meat or trimmed retail cuts, he adds. The marketing specialist says the new trend for lean meats has run headlong into the tradition of buying anil selling cattle car casses on the basis of “dressing percentage” which gives equal value to saleable meat and fat. Since retailers anil consumers pay the final bill, livestockmen and packers are keeping a close watch on market demands. The trend is already bringing major changes in the swine industry where an effort is being made to develop meat type hogs and to emphasize trimmed retail cuts. Following are a few suggestions aimed at profitable “feeding out” of beef cattle to meet new mar ket demands: Where grass and silage are to be feil, stay away from higher feeder grades that won’t return enough as fat cattle to justify the initial expense. For heavy feeding of grain, select the higher feeder grades that can carry the finish. Don't overfeed. Sell Individual animals from the feedlot or range as soon as they’re ready for mar ket. Keep in touch with the com mission man or buyer to learn how your cattle are "cutting out" and seek opinions from the pack er on how quality of your cattle might be Improved.
