Bulls May Replace Steers
For Steak Production-Koch
By Cloyd Clark
Within 10 years steers will
not be raised for beef. Instead,
young bulls will take their
place in the farm feedlot en
route to the dinner table as
steaks and roasts.
This rather startling predi
cation was reported by Dr.
Robert Koch chairman of the
University department of ani
mal husbandry on his return
from a recent scientific short
course in Hanover, West Ger
many dealing with livestock
production.
In addition to the two week
school, Koch toured several
European countries inspecting
research farms and stations.
Dr. Koch was one of two
representatives from the
United States selected to at
tend the school which included
36 animal scientists from 16
countries.
Eleven were NATO nations
except one Yugoslavia al
though Iron Curtain countries
had been invited to the school
which covered problems of re
cording' systems and breed
ing plans of domestic ani
mals. "Bulls for Beef" is a rath
er startling statement es
pecially to the Nebraska feed
ers oriented to fattening
steers for beef and using bulls
for the primary purpose of
breeding. After the bull's util
ity in this field is expended
the animal is then slaughtered
for balony or some secondary
meat product.
Koch described the new use
of bulls as the development of
a distinct aversion for fat .and
a demand for more lean
meat. .
Bulls provide at least a par
tial answer to this demand

because their carcasses have

Domestic Consumption
In France. Dr. Koch ob
served, the hind quarters are
used for domestic consump
tion and the front quarters
are exported to Holland and
other countries to be ground
up in sausage.
Even in Germany, where
50-60 percent of all meat con
sumed is in the form of saus
age, there is a definite trend
toward less fat, Dr. Koch indicated.
The Nebraska researcher
m-aised the industrious West
Germans who are now pro
ducing food for 56 million
neonle on the same land area
that once supported only 33
million.
"This is beine done on land
once considered unfit for in
tensive cultivation," he
added.
Lejs Mechanization
However he noted that there
is less comDlete mechaniza
tion in German agriculture
than the U.S. although the
Bonn region has emerged as
an industrial giant in west
ern Europe.
Although most of his time
was devoted to animal re
search Dr. Koch was able to
spend some time observing
the European education system.
One noint of contrast be
tween the United States Land
Grant colleges and the
schools teaching agriculture
in France was the fact that
only one out of six to eight
applicants would gam admis
sion because of the stiff en
trance exams.
"This system provides quite
an elite group of students and
allows them to cover the sub
ject matter with great speed,
but it also prevents many
from gaining any formal ed
ucation," Koch said.
This method of testing is
only used in the engineering,
architecture and other tech
nological fields, according to
Dr. Koch. In the non-tecnni-cal
fields the certificate sim
ilar to our high school diplo
ma will allow students admis
sion to college.

riage; the Peace Corps and
international projects; re
ligion and college life; and
leadership training.
The new program will have
