Ft. Worth becomes cattle mecca
United Press International
FORT WORTH — The
Texas cattle business, once char
acterized by weathered animals
grazing the open range, is rapid
ly becoming a high-tech indus
try in which the modern cattle
man is a genetic engineer.
At this year’s Southwest Ex
position and Fat Stock Show,
running through Feb. 7, the cat
tle being shown are bigger, lon
ger, heavier and meatier than
those mangy range herds of ages
past.
Today’s cattle are locked in
feedlots and fed calculated por
tions of roughage, grain and
supplements — including vita
mins, protein, hormones and
growth stimulants.
This show is an opportunity
for professional showmen and
women to display the best of
their herds. Millions of dollars in
stud fees and calf sales will be at
stake.
But while the professional
displayers regard the show as
strictly business, it is also an
opportunity for the state’s
young farmers to show their
steers and heifers with potential
for a paid college education. In
most cases the animals are
actually half-ton pets that have
been fed, groomed and played
with.
But 75 percent of the show
consists of professionals show
ing cattle as a business promo
tion.
For them, the money does not
come until after the show, or
even after a tour of several ex-*
positions. The money comes
when a rancher-client decides to
upgrade his herd by crossbreed
ing his animals with higher qual
ity stock. Then he turns to the
prize winners for a cow, calf, bull
or a vial of semen.
The state Department of
Agriculture estimates the beef
industry exerts $24 billion worth
of impact on the economy while
providing some 308,000 jobs in
Texas alone.
Figures show Texas leads the
country in number of calves
born, number of cattle on feed
and number of cattle slaught
ered. It has more farms and ran
ches than anv other state.Com
pared to population, that is vir
tually one head for every man,
woman and child in Texas.
Thanks to genetic engineers,
cattle have been molded into su
per breeds and refined for max
imum growth through hybridi
zation, artificial insemination,
and, in some cases, embryonic
transplants. The result of that
effort is cattle that produce
more meat more quickly and at I he Fort Worth show is im- prestigious form of advertising
more cost efficient rates. portant because it is the most for a breeder.
