Abstract

The future of food animal practice is dependent on the success of the livestock producing industries. Despite the current difficult financial situation for some segments of agriculture, there seems to be a promising future for the well qualified farmer's livestock enterprises. The problems faced by the producers are analogous to those of their veterinarians- they must be good at the biological aspects of their job but they must also be adroit managers and businessmen.
