New
marketing patterns
emerging as a result of in
creased populations and rising
incomes throughout Europe, the
United Kingdom and Asia have
led Oregon Director of Agri
culture Irvin Mann, Jr.,towarn
United States producers against
cutting their beef herds.
Speaking to the Umatilla
County Cattlemen’s Association
on December 9, Mann stated
that under proper management,
the domestic cattle industry
could expand production with
minor fluctuations in herd sue
and still be in good shape for
a long time to come.
He cited the differences in
consumer preferences for beef
in the countries making up the
principal world beef markets,
which have resulted in certain
types of production by their
traditional suppliers. Demand
is growing at such a pace,
Mann said, that these suppliers
soon won’t have the herds to
support any other export pro-
grams which could hurt United
States market potential.
He cited Great Britain, where
butchers are demanding a total
ban on beef exports because of
a shortage at home and an ar
tificially high price.
“U. S. cattlemen need to
fight the temptation to reduce
cowherds materially. For the
long-term picture, it appears
that increases in world beef
production
will be racing
against rising population and
rising incomes.
■•Properly managed, and with
minimum peaks and valleys in
numbers, the cattle business in
tlie United States should be good
for a long time to come,” the
agriculture director said.
