� Focuses on recent and current processing practices and numbers � Looks to help answer the main question: � Are there sufficient numbers of animals to support a new slaughter and/or cut-wrap facility? � There are still producers we don’t know about � There are producers outside of the immediate trade area that are potential users � Contra Costa RCD also surveying beef producers � Additional interviews will add to the final report 2
Asked � Do you sell meat or live on the hoof? � How many animals do you process for meat (2013-2015) � What facilities do you use? � What distance do you travel for current processing? � Why do you use the processors you use now? 3
� Gathered 65 contacts � 11 contacts were not viable: out of business, out of area, or redundant � 35 surveys or interviews were completed � 19 did not respond � Producers who stated they only do processing on-farm with no or informal sales excluded 4
