Cottle Raising Tukes
Priority Over Rice
In Jdmuicd

A shift in emphasis from rice
to cattle is nov taking place in
the crops appearing as No. |
priority on the list of the Agri-
cultural Development Corpora
ton. While the Corporation has
not substantially reduced its acre
age in rice over the past twelve
months, it is no longer expand
ing rapidly in this crop; but at
the same time it is making rapid
strides in collaborating.
The total ADO herd of cattle
now stand at 1000 head, and it is
estimated that by this time next
year, the herd will have grown
to at least 5000 head as a result
Of an intensive feeding and breed
ing program.
On taking over the properties
it now owns, the ADO came into
a total herd of about 1000 head
of cattle, but disposed of these,
and at one time had no appreci-
able cattle. The present herd OF
1000 head has been a rapid build
up based on the belief that cattle
growing has a great future in the
islands economy.
