pynprtpd decade supplant Alberta as the countrys prime meat producer as well The growth of the Saskat Saskatchewan ¬ chewan beef cattle industry is being encouraged by govern government ¬ ment officials through a variety of pasture programs Farmers are welcoming the industry be because ¬ cause of its financial rewards and its increasing stability The provinces beef cattle population increased about 50 000 head a year from 1956 to 2170000 head at the end of 1962 third only to Alberta and Ontario This rate of growth is well above the long term Cana Canadian ¬ dian average and has left Sas Saskatchewan ¬ katchewan about 1000000 head behind leading Alberta Cattle marketings in Canada during the 1952 62 period in increased ¬ creased to 3842000 from 2065 000 annually During the same period sales in Saskatchewan climbed to 772000 from 317000 again outstripping the national percentage increase Sales in Alberta in 1962 totalled 875932 while in Ontario they reached 845168 HAS RIGHT CLIMATE Agriculture Minister I C Nollett a former rancher pre predicts ¬ dicts that within a few years Saskatchewan will have another 1000000 head of cattle A government official says the long pull favors livestock expansion in northern and cen central ¬ tral regions of the province where weather conditions are not as ideal as in the southern districts for production of high quality wheat He cautioned however that any growth musUbegradual to prevent periods of disruption in marketings that would aursely affect consumer prices v North America had to be con considered ¬ sidered on beef market area Its average annual population increase of 3000000 ensured long term demand if prices were held to reasonable levels Beef now enjoys a favored position among North American consumers the official said This can be maintained only if prices hold steady Periods of high prices f lighten custom customers ¬ ers to other meats Once lost they are hard to regain Livestock men cannot allow such preference shifts es especially ¬ pecially since it costs more to produce a pound of beef than either pork or poultry NEED MORE PASTURE The anticipated growth of the industry in Saskatchewan will require more pasture lands The province now lacks what is considered sufficient acreage for its present cattle population About f0500000 acres are in involved ¬ volved in livestock production or about 10 acres an animal The accepted minimum is 15 acres an animal This shortage necessitates costly supplementary feeding programs to finish cattle But new pasture lands being opened under Prairie Farm Rehabilita tion Act projects others con contemplated ¬ templated under the new Agri Agriculture ¬ culture Rehabilitation and De Development ¬ velopment Act and conversion of acreages now being used for grain production are expected to overcome this shortage I 4ue a out a Saskatchewan to have an important bearing on the future Production of high protein fodder on land irrigated by the project is considered much more desirable than grain crops Such production also would eliminate dependence upon other provinces for feed in dry years Feed shortages in the past have hindered cattle production and forced ranchers and farmers to sell out herds IMPROVE GRAIN METHODS The added stability is ex expected ¬ pected to make cattle raising more attractive to farmers in rnarginal grain - growing dis districts ¬ tricts industry spokesmen say Saskatchewan last year had about 41000000 acres in grain production About one quarter of this area was termed mar marginal ¬ ginal grain land better suited to feed crops Government officials suggest the loss in grain acreage could be met by improved practices in the good grain growing dis districts ¬ tricts The vast grain industry has hidden the growth of beef cat cattle ¬ tle production in Saskatchewan In 1962 cne third of the prov provinces ¬ inces net cash farm income came from likestock sales the lowest percentage in Canada But the transfer of grain lands to fodder production and livestock and the opening of new pasture areas will change the balance and increase over all farm income totals an industry official said Canada got 128 from livestock-sales for every 1 in grain sales last year A similar trend will appear in Saskatchewan because it has more agricul agricultural ¬ tural land than any other singlo province and she will have to carry an increasing share of the beef catle production load if we are to meet market de demands ¬ mands QUESNEL TV TONIGHT 400pm Scarlett Hill 430 pm Faith for Today 500 pm Razzle Dazzle 530 pm
