facilities for feeding 400 cattle The cattle will be fed in groups of 1G allowing simulta simultaneous ¬ neous testing of as many as 25 lots of cattle Such major problems as the Ivst process to use in feed reparation feed grades to ue Htieties additives that im- pUvc feed efficiency milling I jrthods could be attacked at mc time and in a scope to pro provide ¬ vide meaningful answers Nowhere has the feeding va value ¬ lue of grain been a factor in plant breeding savs Dr Bell Such research as ours might siark such work Specially bred ricties off coarse grains with high protein content might make it possible to eliminate expensive supplementary feed ine At present most feed grain is that which dils to make the grades for human consumption Few farmers purposely produce feed grains to meet livestock needs But work by plant scien scientists ¬ tists could promote greater in interest ¬ terest among farmers in con consciously ¬ sciously growing grain for feed The feed lot also will make it pi5blc to dcublccheck under Canadian renditions supple supplementary ¬ mentary diets currently used bv Canadian cattlement on the bais of US testing An ex example ¬ ample Is the use of amino acids such as ljsen and methionine FEEDING INEFFICIENT Tl e amino adds arc said to Improve the efficiency of beef rattle and thj is of major con concern ¬ cern to catte mnn The transformation of feed to beef Is one of the least effi efficient ¬ cient processes now practised in apiculture Three pounds of feed tan be transformed into a pound of pork under controlled feeding and two pounds can bo transformed into a pound of potltry But it takes at least eight pounds of grain to pro produce ¬ duce one pound of beef ThJts why early projects wilt be aimed at improving the efficiency of feeding programs Tiii results will bo funnelled to the industry which can use them to increase production meet the rising demands of a growing population and help to reduce the cost to the consum consumers ¬
