[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 118722, member: 1604"] Actually Tyson said they preferred "High Yielding" cattle above "Quality Grade". Quote from decision; "It [Tyson] is a volume meat dealer; it's largest customers are are supermarket chains. To provide for it's customers in the most inexpensive and efficient way, Tyson prefers large, high-yielding cattle to high quality cattle." Tyson slaughters approx 35,000 head per DAY. ********************************** In answer to your captive supply question. Some of those cattle were sold on the grid which would have brought more money than cash cattle. [/QUOTE]
