Brae was slightly firmer in texture than corn-fed beef but exuded a quintessential beefy flavor that was a more than adequate reward for a little extra chewing. The porterhouse and sirloin steaks pan-grilled in an iron skillet would have done credit to any first-class steak house. A rib roast was succulent and tender, but ground sirloin and chuck were too lean to make properly moist hamburgers. Pot roast and stew cuts, though acceptable, cooked so quickly that they did not absorb the flavors of seasonings, one of the advantages of the usually fatty, long-cooking cuts...
...Miles, whose product is sold at Healey's Market, has been raising beefalo for four years. His animals are given no hormones and are fed whole- grain corn because consumers did not like the tougher, grass-fed variety. His beefalo was indeed juicier and more tender than the Chenango meat, which comes from cattle that graze on grass and are given spring water and supplements of mineral blocks and hay.

Yet despite an increase in cooperation from such nations as Thailand and Peru, many developing countries have mixed feelings about eradication programs because their peasants earn far more money cultivating opium poppies or coca plants than they would get from corn or cotton. Bolivia, for example, earns $1 billion a year from cocaine, its largest export...
...rate that exceeded 1000% in mid-1985. The government, which imposed wage and price controls last year, expects inflation to be just 28% for all of 1986. But like that of the other debtors, Argentina's improvement is tenuous. One potential threat is the fall in the price of corn, wheat and other grains, which provide about 45% of Argentina's export earnings...
