Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 5 page paper discussing current conditions in
Argentina's traditional focus of national pride, its cattle industry. The traditional method of
raising cattle is open-range, but Argentine beef can weigh as little as half of that raised in the

technology in improving herd management in Argentina through adopting the feed-lot system
for most animals while retaining the open-range approach for others, followed by astute
marketing of the benefits of range-grown beef. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
