EXPORT BEEF.
CHILLED QUALITY MAINTAINED. Since tho commencement of the war no chilled beef has been imported into the United Kingdom, but as New Zealand’s chilled beef production had grown rapidly prior to tlie war, and the overseas market showed great potentialities, the New Zealand Aleut Producers’ Board considers it most essential to maintain and even improve the present-day quality of chiller beef production. With this object in view, the board is continuing to offer substantial prizes in the various districts for cattle suitable for chilled beef. It is hoped where possible that A. and P. societies will arrange a field day when the cattle arc judged in order to demonstrate to fanners the type of animal required. To meet tho requirements of tho British Government, all New Zealand’s chiller quality cattle are now being shipped as frozen beef. It may bo mentioned, however, that in tho discussions between tho New Zealand Government and the British authorities, the New Zealand Aleut Producers’ Board especially arranged, through the Now Zoaland Government, that the special quality of our chiller beef should Lie recognised in the price offered even though tho beef was frozen instead of being shipped as chilled.
