LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE CANADIAN CATTLE INDUSTRY: NATIONAL ANIMAL IDENTIFICATION AND THE MAD COW AgEcon
Lawrence, John D.; Strohbehn, Daryl; Loy, Daniel D.; Clause, Reginald J..
Canada implemented a national cattle identification system led and developed by the industry. Initially a voluntary program beginning in July 2001, it became mandatory in July 2002 and achieved 92-95 percent compliance by that fall. The system was low cost to initiate and operate and only requires that animals be tagged before leaving the farm of origin and the tags are read when the animal dies or is exported. The national ID system did not protect Canadian cattle from a sole case of BSE, or Mad Cow Disease, found in the spring of 2002, but it did help speed and lend confidence to the investigation. While the ID system was the objective of the study, the team also report on how markets and an industry behave in a crisis.

ELEMENTS OF CATTLE FEEDING PROFITABILITY IN MIDWEST FEEDLOTS AgEcon
Lawrence, John D.; Wang, Zhi; Loy, Daniel D..
Conventional wisdom and earlier research have concluded that cattle feeding profitability is more determined by feeder and fed cattle prices than by animal performance. This study examined cross-sectional and time-series data from over 1600 pens of cattle in more than 220 feedlots in the upper Midwest where weather and lot conditions are thought to influence feedlot profitability. In addition to input and output prices and animal performance, other factors found to significantly impact cattle feeding profitability were sex, placement weight, facility design, and to a lesser extent placement season.
Tipo: Journal Article Palavras-chave: Cattle feedlots; Probability; Risk; Livestock Production/Industries.
