 ANIMAL HUSBANDRY AND NUTRITION
 The curriculum in animal husbandry gives fundamental training in the various
phases of the production of beef cattle, swine, horses, and sheep. Practical experience
in the above phases is essential.
 In addition, special consideration is given to meat products, the packing house in-
dustry, and the grading and marketing of meat and meat producing animals. Subjects
in the basic sciences and related agricultural fields are required as a foundation for a
study of animal breeding, nutrition, and management. Students majoring in animal
husbandry are required to take BLY. 161-162 as corequisites with C-6, and CY. 121-122
and ACY. 208. AL. 312 is suggested to be taken as soon as prerequisites are completed.
Students planning to do graduate work in animal nutrition should elect AL. 427, and
should take CY. 301-302 instead of ACY. 208.
