THE QUICK READ

National Beef Packing runs a cattle harvest and processing plant in Liberal, Kansas, taking cattle through slaughter and then through fabrication lines that cut carcasses into boxed beef, portion-control cuts, and consumer-ready products. Ammonia-based refrigeration keeps the chill floors and coolers at the temperature raw beef needs, and the plant hires maintenance techs specifically for that ammonia system. The size of the ammonia system isn't on file.
