Oregon stockmen seriously
concerned about criminal
trespass by hunters brought
their case to the State Board of
Agriculture in Bend this week.
Terming the present
farmer-hunter situation "po
tentially explosive," repre
sentatives of several County
Livestock Associations said
that they have noticed an
increase in violence or
threats of violence by
hunters and others who have
been challenged by the owners
of posted land.
After hearing the testimony,
members of the board agreed
to examine all issues related
to damage and trespass on
agricultural lands when the
panel meets again this spring.
Martin Howard, a livestock
producer in Prineville and
chairman of the State Live
stock and Marketing Board,
said that stockman associa
tions are concerned and are
proposing new legislation
which would require the'
surrender of a hunting license
for five years by any hunter
convicted of criminal tres
pass. Howard said that document
ed violence against stock
menas well as threats at
gunpoint seemed to be on the
increase this past season.
"Some people think that just
because they have a license
and tag that they can hunt
absolutely anywhere," he
said.
Agriculture Director
Leonard Kunzman told board
members that he was deeply
concerned about the problem,
especially about a recent
incident in which an Oregon
rancher was beaten so severe
ly with his own rifle that the
stock was broken in the
assault. The producer was
beaten by two. hunters whom
he challenged on his own
land and was hospitalized for
two weeks for treatment of
serious injuries.
Kunzman said that he and
the department staff would
confer with officials of the
Department of Fish tnd
Wildlife and other agencies to
prepare a full package on the
trespass and land-damage
problem for the board's next
session.
Morrow Countians planning
to show market steers at the
June 6-9 Eastern Oregon
Livestock Show in Union must
have their steers weighed on a
certified scale at least 150
days prior to the show. That
gives participants only until
the first week in January to
perform the weigh-in. Local
Extension agents or FFA
advisors will assist.
This year, steers will be sold
on a carcass grade basis. The
weigh-in will help determine
rate of gain for the market
steers, which will be included
in carcass data.
