Stockmen urge more research on finishing cattle in ND
Vern Anderson of Carrington studies silage straw and crambe meal and envisions doubling North Dakota’s cattle herd without extra pasture. The North Dakota Stockmen's Association backs shifting NDSU center research toward finishing cattle for slaughter weight to boost the feedlot sector, while the state Board of Agricultural Research seeks broader agricultural focus and funding plans. Authorities note funding, credibility, and legislative support will shape any change as Dakota Prairie Beef expands in the region.
