Abstract: This publication provides guidelines for determining the feasibility of establishing cattle-slaughter plants in rural areas. It identifies specific prerequisites for a successful cattle-slaughter operation and demonstrates how an industrial survey can be used to determine the potential of a particular livestock-producing area. The approach is primarily one of applied research or interpretive analysis, using basic research published on the subject to make valid decisions about establishing such plants.
