Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "By the late nineteenth century, Americans rich and poor had come to expect high-quality fresh beef with almost every meal. Beef production in the United States had gone from small-scale, localized operations to a highly centralized industry spanning the country, with cattle bred on ranches in the rural West, slaughtered in Chicago, and consumed in the nation's rapidly growing cities. Red Meat Republic tells the remarkable story of the violent conflict over who would reap the benefits of this new industry and who would bear its heavy costs"--

Download or read book The Rise of the Midwestern Meat Packing Industry written by Margaret Walsh and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the meat packing industry of the Midwest offers an excellent illustration of the growth and development of the economy of that major industrial region. In the course of one generation, meat packing matured from a small-scale, part-time activity to a specialized manufacturing operation. Margaret Walsh's pioneering study traces the course of that development, shedding light on an unexamined aspect of America's economic history. As the Midwest emerged from the frontier period during the 1840s and 1850s, the growing urban demand for meat products led to the development of a seasonal industry conducted by general merchants during the winter months. In this early stage the activity was widely dispersed but centered mainly along rivers, which provided ready transportation to markets. The growth of the railroads in the 1850s, coupled with the westward expansion of population, created sharp changes in the shape and structure of the industry. The distinct advantages of good rail connections led to the concentration of the industry primarily in Chicago, but also in St. Louis and Milwaukee. The closing of the Mississippi River during the Civil War insured the final dominance of rail transport and spelled the relative decline of such formerly important packing points as Cincinnati and Louisville. By the 1870s large and efficient centralized stockyards were being developed in the major centers, and improved technology, particularly ice-packing, favored those who had the capital resources to invest in expansion and modernization. By 1880, the use of the refrigerated car made way for the chilled beef trade, and the foundations of the giant meat packing industry of today had been firmly established. Margaret Walsh has located an impressive array of primary materials to document the rise of this important early industry, the predecessor and in many ways the precursor of the great industrial complex that still dominates today's midwestern economy.
Download or read book Cutting Into the Meatpacking Line written by Deborah Fink and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nostalgic vision of a rural Midwest populated by independent family farmers hides the reality that rural wage labor has been integral to the region's development, says Deborah Fink. Focusing on the porkpacking industry in Iowa, Fink investigates the experience of the rural working class and highlights its significance in shaping the state's economic, political, and social contours. Fink draws both on interviews and on her own firsthand experience working on the production floor of a pork-processing plant. She weaves a fascinating account of the meatpacking industry's history in Iowa--a history, she notes, that has been experienced differently by male and female, immigrant and native-born, white and black workers. Indeed, argues Fink, these differences are a key factor in the ongoing creation of the rural working class. Other writers have denounced the new meatpacking companies for their ruthless destruction of both workers and communities. Fink sustains this criticism, which she augments with a discussion of union action, but also goes beyond it. She looks within rural midwestern culture itself to examine the class, gender, and ethnic contradictions that allowed--indeed welcomed--the meatpacking industry's development.

This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Technological Progress in the Meatpacking Industry, 1919-47 Since its emergence before the Civil War, the meatpacking industry has passed through four stages of development-the country slaughterhouse; winter slaughtering and packing plants; year -round meatpacking plants; and the present integrated food-processing establishments. Throughout this period of development, the major Operations performed, if not the methods used in performing them, have remained relatively unchanged. In brief, animals are killed, eviscerated, either depilated or skinned, chilled, and then cut into primal cuts which are either sold fresh or processed further (cured or canned). The byproducts and edible offal or variety meats, such as tongue, liver, and heart, are separated out. Finally the fresh and processed meats, and the byproducts are disposed of through channels of distribution.
