Grid Pricing Versus Average Pricing For Fed Cattle: Where Is The Incentive, Scott Fausti, Bashir Qasmi

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

A weekly comparative marketing study of above-average and below-average quality slaughter cattle was conducted over a 154 week time period (Jan 1997 to Dec 1999). Two data sets containing carcass information on 1500 head of fed cattle were randomly selected from a data set containing carcass information on 2590 steers. Weekly average price per cwt. was calculated for both pens using two different pricing systems: a) the dressed weight pricing system; and b) the Agricultural Marketing Service grid pricing system. The empirical evidence indicates that over the 154 week period: a) the above-average quality carcass data set received a higher …

Cottonwood Creek Preliminary Assessment, John D. Lhotak, Jeffrey W. Dunn, Victoria Edwards, Michael Sanctuary, G. Hughes, Matthew V. Vitale

Clark Fork Symposium Archives

Cottonwood Creek is located in Powell County, Montana and flows through the town of Deer Lodge. The Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), will be working with ranch owners along Cottonwood Creek on restoration and conservation projects in the spring of 2001. In September and October of 2000, six graduate students from the University of Montana completed a baseline assessment of the lower Cottonwood Creek watershed, including the tributary Reese Anderson Creek. The assessment is the start of a more comprehensive assessment to be completed in the summer of 2001. The purpose of this baseline assessment is to characterize the current …

Plant Materials Centers Provide Vegetative Solutions, Larry Holzworth, Dwight Tober, Dan Ogle

Clark Fork Symposium Archives

Current land management practices are highly complex involving holistic approaches to achieve land health and environmental quality. Plants can be used to address today’s environmental problems. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) provides conservation planning, program administration, and technology transfer to private landowners. Plant Material Centers (PMCs), together with a multitude of partners, develop plant materials and provide technology regarding their use. To date, there are 484 cultivars and natural germplasms of improved plants that have been released by PMCs. A large number of these releases have been successfully incorporated into the commercial seed and plant production industry. Over 114 …

Biomarkers Of Heavy Metal Effects In Two Species Of Caddisfly Larvae From Clark Fork River, Montana: Stress Proteins (Hsp70) And Lysosomal Membrane Integrity, I. Werner, K. Broeg, Daniel Cain, W. Wallace, Michelle Hornberger, D. E. Hinton, Samuel Luoma

Clark Fork Symposium Archives

Potential sublethal effects of heavy metals in stream macroinvertebrates were examined with two cellular and biochemical biomarkers in larvae of two caddisflies indigenous to the Clark Fork River, Montana, - Hydropsyche spp. and Arctopsyche grandis. Stress proteins, in particular members of the HSP70 family, are involved in cellular protein homeostasis and repair, and are induced by a variety of stressors, which either damage cellular proteins directly or cause cells to synthesize aberrant proteins. Lysosomes are intracellular organelles that play key roles in the detoxification of both organic and inorganic xenobiotic compounds. Larvae of Hydropsyche spp. were collected from …

Evaluating Stream Bioassessment Protocols Using Data From The Clark Fork’S Ecoregion, Wease Bollman

Clark Fork Symposium Archives

A proposed method for the evaluation of macroinvertebrate bioassessment protocols is described in this study. The Montana Department of Environmental Quality (Montana DEQ) uses a modification of US EPA’s Rapid Bioassessment Protocols for stream assessment and monitoring. These protocols use a battery of macroinvertebrate community descriptors, or metrics, as indicators of biotic health; the metrics are based upon tenets of ecological theory and field observations and remained largely untested for sensitivity to the effects of human activities.

To evaluate the metric battery in current use, 93 stream sites were sampled in the Montana Valley and Foothill Prairies ecoregion (which includes …
