Pre-Conditioned Cattle Sales for Forage-Based Cow-Calf Management Systems
Demand for preconditioned feeder cattle continues to increase in the beef industry as value-based marketing and information flow expands indicating preconditioned forage-raised calves require less management, fewer losses due to illness and deaths, and increased profitability to both buyer and seller. The goal of a preconditioning program is to increase the value of weaned cattle (Bailey, 2002). The Northeast Texas Beef Improvement Organization (NET-BIO) is comprised of commercial cow/calf and stocker operators and various agribusinesses with the same interest. The objective of this study is to determine if prices received for preconditioned NETBIO stocker cattle increase the net income above preconditioning costs
Overview of the Tevatron Collider Complex: Goals, Operations and Performance
For more than two decades the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider was the
centerpiece of the world's high energy physics program. The collider was
arguably one of the most complex research instruments ever to reach the
operation stage and is widely recognized for numerous physics discoveries and
for many technological breakthroughs. In this article we outline the historical
background that led to the construction of the Tevatron Collider, the strategy
applied to evolution of performance goals over the Tevatron's operational
history, and briefly describe operations of each accelerator in the chain and
achieved performance.Comment: Includes modifications suggested by reviewer
