More Land Needed For Pasture To Meet Beef Demand
Washington says farmers must convert more cropland to grazing to support a 5 percent annual beef cattle rise for seven years, reaching about 99.5 million head by 1970.

The shortage of grazing land must be addressed, as dairy feed needs remain unaltered.
