ORISKANY, N.Y. — Local livestock producers are invited to attend a discussion on profitable meat marketing scheduled for Friday September 14th from 6pm to 9pm at CCE Oneida located at 121 Second St. in Oriskany.
Producers interested in determining the optimal marketing route and pricing scales will benefit from attending this presentation. Livestock marketing specialist, Matt LeRoux will demonstrate and discuss the benefits of using the Cornell Meat Price and Yield Calculator.
Please come prepared. Gather your current meat prices, invoice from your processor, and the weights of cuts from one average animal from your herd. As time permits individual data can be entered into the calculator to determine if current marketing routes are viable and if your pricing approach is on target to meet your business goals.
Light snacks and refreshments will be served. No charge to attend, but registration is required by calling Marylynn at 315-736-3394 ext. 132 or email at mrm7@cornell.edu by Monday September 10th.
