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.
Evaluating Economic Efficiency By Relative Price Analysis (Feed, Livestock And Product Sectors), J. Y. Chen, J. B. Hassler
Evaluating Economic Efficiency By Relative Price Analysis (Feed, Livestock And Product Sectors), J. Y. Chen, J. B. Hassler
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The specific objective of this research is to delineate efficient and inefficient economic performance areas and thereby locate the more significant problem aspects for research and program attention. Specific price analyses will be used to evaluate the price interrelationships for functional efficiency in the dimensions of space, form and time. Not only the efficient aspects of production and marketing will be indicated by the analyses but the inefficient aspects of economic performance will be stressed also. This research will provide some foundational information for making decisions, both public and private. Moreover, it will direct the attention of researchers or program …

Wheat And Feed Grains In The Great Plains And Northwest: Study Area Descriptions And State Statistical Summaries, W. F. Lagrone, R. E. Hatch, G. A. Helmers
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The objectives are: (1) To determine individual farm-supply response for alternative product-price relationships and price levels with emphasis on wheat, feed grains, cotton and livestock (2) To estimate aggregate subregional and regional supply functions for major commodities (3) To provide guides for optimum farm organizations and adjustments and attendant adjustments by farm-related businesses and institutions in the Great Plains and Western States.
An Annotated List Of Grasshoppers (Orthoptera, Acrididae) From The Eleven Panhandle Counties Of Nebraska, A. F. Hagen
An Annotated List Of Grasshoppers (Orthoptera, Acrididae) From The Eleven Panhandle Counties Of Nebraska, A. F. Hagen
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
A description of the study area is presented indicating the ecological niches that exist in the Nebraska Panhandle. Seventy-five species of grasshoppers are listed from the 11 Panhandle counties. Twenty-one occur in the subfamily Acridinae, 29 in Oedipodinae, 24 in Cyrtacanthacridinae and 1 in Romaleinae. Ecological, taxonomic and distributional data are presented.
Wheat And Feed Grains In The Great Plains And Northwest: Supply Response And Resource Use, G. A. Helmers, W. F. Lagrone
Wheat And Feed Grains In The Great Plains And Northwest: Supply Response And Resource Use, G. A. Helmers, W. F. Lagrone
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The basic objective of the research reported here is to estimate supply response with varying product prices for wheat and feed grains. Within a framework of representative farm income maximization, changing product price relationships lead to supply adjustments which are aggregated and expressed as normative supply functions. Another objective is to analyze the resource use and net returns with varying prices for wheat and feed grains. The analysis of resources considers changes in overall levels of resources demanded in response to changing wheat and feed grain prices. Similarly, the analysis of net returns examines differences in net returns in response …
Growth In Weight Of Selected Organs, Tissues And Systems In The Pig, William J. Loeffel, Robert M. Koch
Growth In Weight Of Selected Organs, Tissues And Systems In The Pig, William J. Loeffel, Robert M. Koch
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
As a result of investigations at the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station in 1929, 1930 and 1931 to determine the effect of weight and degree of fatness of the pork carcass upon the quality and palatability of the meat, 40 pigs were slaughtered, five each at the approximate live weights of 70, 80, 90, 100, 115, 135, 160, and 180 kg. This corresponds to carcass weights ranging from 50 to 150 kg. The results of the meat investigations and feedlot data were reported elsewhere (Loeffel et al.,1943). This study reports data relative to the weight of selected tissues and organs, as …
