An Economic Information Program For The U.S. Beef And Pork Sectors, N. A. Aulaqi, J. B. Hassler
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Major objectives of the study were: first, to review present public data programs and to indicate areas of inefficient performance in the production and marketing of beef and pork that still exist under the present data system; second, to simulate an operational information service program for the beef and pork sectors based on programmed solutions for industry allocations and activities; and third, to outline possible implementation procedures for the information service programs and to indicate the role of each of the participants in making it successful.

Specific objectives of this study are: (1) To evaluate the recent historical price relationships of the beef sector indicative of profit and loss conditions caused by disorderly aggregate performance in production and marketing. (2) To analyze the risks involved at various positions in the chain of production and marketing activities. (3) To suggest information and action programs which could reduce the amount of disorderly production and marketing.
Orderly Production And Marketing In The Beef-Pork Sector, John E. Trierweiler, James B. Hassler
Orderly Production And Marketing In The Beef-Pork Sector, John E. Trierweiler, James B. Hassler
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
This study will present economic models for analyzing temporal equilibrium positions for the beef-pork sector. The issues of spatial distribution, storage, and meat forms will not be directly analyzed. Grade and yield changes for various carcass classes will, however, be implied in the carrying costs of the animal. The models will be designed such that a number of different factors that affect the production and marketing of beef and pork can be analyzed simultaneously.
