Dodge City's fortune was built upon the key role played by its cattle industry. The delegation were given a clear view of the importance of cattle to the City as they toured the Winters Feed Lot were some 50,000 cattle are housed prior to slaughter.
Councillors D'reen Ryan and Lynda Russell (pictured) were given a demonstration of the mechnisation and computerisation of the feed system and the difference that technology has played in improving the efficiency of the plant.
