Subject: ECONOMIC IMPACT OF FEEDLOTS

I am looking at a "Request for Proposal" to examine the impact of a cattle
feeding operation on local economies. They want a measure of the impact per
head of feedlot space on the local economy - both in employment amd dollar
terms. Where to start?! Any ideas are welcome - feel free to send them pri-
vately.
Thanks, Brian Freeze
