Interregional Competition In Markets Facing Utah Livestock And Poultry Producers, Terrell O. Sorensen
Interregional Competition In Markets Facing Utah Livestock And Poultry Producers, Terrell O. Sorensen
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The purpose of this thesis is to make an evaluation of the competitive position of the Utah livestock industry based on feed ingredient and transportation costs, This is done by the use of a linear programming model (MPS-360). This is on the basis of the least cost means of production to meet the quantity demanded of the livestock products. This is accomplished by dividing the United States into six regions where Utah is one of these regions to enable careful consideration of Utah's agricultural enterprises.
Beef, pork, broilers, turkeys, eggs, and milk are the agricultural products used in the model. …
Plant Succession Studies On Subalpine Acid Mine Spoils In The Beartooth Mountains, Patricia Lea Howard
Plant Succession Studies On Subalpine Acid Mine Spoils In The Beartooth Mountains, Patricia Lea Howard
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Large areas within alpine and subalpine tundra have been by disturbed by mining during this century. The most promising method for retarding deterioration of these areas is revegetation with native species through both seeding and transplants. One natural process of revegetation which occurs on portions of many existing disturbances seems to be the establishment of a few species that expand with time to form matts of plants.
At the McLaren Mine, located at 3000 m elevation in the Beartooth Mountains, Montana, active succession is occurring and is dominated by Carex species. Seed viability and successional patterns studies were conducted on …

An Analysis Of Farm Land Use Changes Related To Inheritance Taxes, Estate Planning, And Sale For Retirement In Selected Utah Counties During 1971-1975, Randall Nolan Parker
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Because of increasing rural land values, potential estate problems have been created for farm owners. This study was conducted to analyze land use changes when the farm owner dies. Land use changes and factors related to use change for estates subjected to probate court during 1971-1975, in the selected Utah counties, are described in this thesis.
County records were searched for information pertaining to farm estates probaged in six Utah counties. Individuals handling the affairs of the estates were contacted by mail. Questionnaires returned were used in the analysis and are the basis for the conclusions of this study.

The Contribution Of Federal Land Grazing In The Eleven Western States To Total U.S. Beef Supply, Muhammad Rafiq
The Contribution Of Federal Land Grazing In The Eleven Western States To Total U.S. Beef Supply, Muhammad Rafiq
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The objectives of this study were to: 1) determine the contribution of federal land grazing to beef production in Utah and the 11 western states, and 2) trace the impact of hypothetical incremental reductions in federal land grazing in the 11 western states on total beef supply and retail beef prices in the United States.
The federal land animal units in the 11 western states were obtained from Bureau of Land Management and Forest Service records. The animal units were converted into the number of breeding cows and feeder calves totally dependent on federal land grazing, with the help of …
An Analysis Of Land Use Transfers, Agricultural Production, And Rural Zoning Requirements In Selected Utah Counties, 1974 Through 1976, Eldon James White
An Analysis Of Land Use Transfers, Agricultural Production, And Rural Zoning Requirements In Selected Utah Counties, 1974 Through 1976, Eldon James White
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Increased incomes, better transportation, and the desirability of country living all create the demand for land in the agricultural-urban fringe areas to increase. High land values, low returns on investment, and residential encroachment place farmers in a situation where continued agricultural production is difficult. As ownership transfer occurs, the use of land is often changed. This study is directed at measuring the effects of ownership transfers in rural areas of rapidly urbanizing counties on the local agricultural industries, and the effect of zoning requirements on these transfers.
The study sample consisted of land buyers recorded at the Utah State Tax …
