Abstract: Interregional and interseasonal competition in the U.S. beef industry have been studied extensively during the past decade. Linear programming, quadratic programming, simulation, and various other econometric models have formed the analytical frameworks in these studies.Reactive programming was first introduced as a useful tool in analyzing interregional competition problems by Tramel and Seale in 1959. Since that time, it has been utilized on a limited basis in spatial analyses in general, and the beef sector in particular. Goodwin used reactive programming in analyzing feeder cattle distribution patterns in the Southwest. In 1972, King and Ho reported a revised reactive programming algorithm and three illustrations of its applicability.
