Walking through your local grocery store, such as Kroger’s, you will see the isle filled of poultry, with variation from chicken, beef, veal, and steak. People often question the high cost of the meats and their quality, but do they ever question where their meat is coming from or how it was processed? I would assume the answer is no. In the New York Times article “U.S. Research Lab Lets Livestock Suffer in Quest for Profit” we are introduced to the U.S. Meat Animal Research Center (MARC) and exposed to their inhumane experiments being used on our livestock’s, which in turn is the meat we buy in our stores. Although some experts such as Robert R. Oltjen, the center’s director, argue that humans are superior to
Bill McKibben who is the author for the essay called The Only Way To Have a Cow claims that the way meat is made is an unclean practice that has many negatives. The biggest of them all is methane in the atmosphere. The release of methane can be of the past thanks to today’s methods and technology. Methane can be reduced by having the cows become free-range and grass fed but that would increase the price of meat. Other ways methane can be reduced in the atmosphere is by being stored and used for energy, and by altering cows diets.
When eating anything, most people check the labels to see what the food all consists of. Just like when eating hamburger, some people may want to know if the hamburger came from grass-fed or grain-fed cattle. Depending on the person, they might prefer one over the other. Some people may think that one tastes better than the other or they may just think it is healthier. Not only might the meat coming from the cattle be affected, but also the milk coming from a cow. Either way, further explanations for grass-fed vs. grain-fed cattle will be discussed in this paper.
This discussion question is based on a case study. As in all case studies, review the facts of the case and consider the various steps of the nursing process in order to address the critical thinking questions.

Why did cattle ranching develop on the Great Plains? Cattle ranching developed on the Great Plains because vast fortunes were made. The cattle industry was based on some very important factors which were wild cattle, wild horses, and grass. These factors made cattle ranching very profitable, but however, for the cattle barons the bonanza didn’t last forever. In the North the market for beef was growing huge, and that meant ranching was a good way to live.
The reason I chose to use my show cattle as the main part of my video is because they are really important to me and have probably had biggest impact on my life as a whole. For the last 10 years I have been showing cattle and it has been a huge part of my life ever since. Showing cattle has taught me more about life and responsibility then anything else in my life ever has. Throughout the years of showing my cattle I have made many friends and been lots of places. The reason I chose the pictures that I did for my show cattle part of the video is because they show the way that I have grown and learned more over the last few years about showing cattle in specific. Having pictures of multiple years of calves that I have showed, explain how my showing abilities have improved since I started showing cattle. I mixed the different cattle that I have showed so that my video would show different perspectives of my show calves and the different breeds that I have showed. These pictures help me look back at the different shows I have been too with different calves helps me understand what I have improved on. Each calf that I have had, has been different in many ways, and each one has made me go out of my comfort zone in different ways and helped me learn new things such as, showing a different breed that I had no experience in, breaking calves to lead, new techniques for showing and prep, and figuring out new feed rations for my calves.
Because I love working with cattle I want to have 10,000 head of cattle so I can make a lot of money.I will have to have a lot of money to get started so I will have to have a big feed mixer and a bunch of land and gates to keep the cattle in.And I want to have cattle wrangling horses to get them in the trailer.I want to have a big tractor and big combine I want my farm outside of Oneida and maybe move to Kansas .Also I want to have a feed making station.I will have workers and i will pay them $60 an hour. Also i will provide them a nice house.Out of the 10,000 cows i want to have 60 bulls and 2,000 heffers and the rest cows and i want to have 10,000 calves every year so i will have more cows every
The over-arching problem that Breeder’s Own Pet Foods has is which marketing-strategy would best serve as a vehicle for entry into the dog food retail business. Additionally, it has to select the most prominent geographic location (s) for distribution of its product. Another root problem component is how to get the supermarkets to stock and distribute this dog food since it is in the frozen category and may not appeal to traditional dog food buyers because they don’t readily associate dog food with frozen goods.
The company needs to evaluate who comprises its target market. Is the market the entire dog food market? The 10 percent that is currently purchasing frozen food or the 15% that would purchase if it were more convenient to do so? Currently consumers do not associate dog food with frozen food; but even if they did, the product may still not appeal to the average consumer due to time requirements for its preparation and thawing.
This paper will focus on the finding the best solution for Cow wow and targeting the right customers. First, Recap and analyze the relevant facts, second Determining the root problem, Identifying the problem components, Generating the alternatives, evaluating alternatives, choose an alternative and Implementation plan and Alternative Choice Must be edited, still in
