AVONDALE, Pa. — Pennsylvania farmers get a bad rap for nutrient runoff that makes its way to the Chesapeake Bay. “I think what got lost in the very beginning of those bay discussions was Lancaster County has more ag production than the state of Maryland,” said Matt Ehrhart, the director of watershed restoration at Stroud Water Research Center in Avondale.

1 month ago | lancasterfarming.com | Dan Sullivan

Small farmers practicing on-farm slaughter hope to take a bite of the large beef processors’ market share. “My belief is that we should slaughter animals where they are,” said Mike Callicrate, a Kansas cattle producer. Callicrate and others are showing that on-farm, USDA-sanctioned processing can work, once you make the investment. He said once animals are slaughtered on the farm, they can be moved to urban centers for further processing. “Then you get the best of both worlds,” Callicrate said.
