In China, the number of raising stock of cattle was 147 million and the beef production total was 5.8 million ton in 1998. Compared to the previous year, the number of cattle increased 5% and the production quantity raised by 7.4%. In this way, it is observed that the Chinese beef production is getting stronger trend and the processing industries is developing gradually. There are various shapes of beef production and management systems in China as if is a very big country. The Inner Mongolia has become a place of beef raising with the production of meat and draft animals. It has gained an important status of supplying beef to the towns and cities. In the pastural area of Shimon in Inner Mongolia, the remarkable change occured in beef production due to shift of enterprise from public control to special producers' group and community approaches. This happned afterthe large economic reform and the opening of market economy. Due to the integration process, it is also observed that the animal industries have been developing fast. Thus, recently, the public enterprise, private slaughter house, animal markets, etc. have been developed instead of only government structures and facilities previously. But due to privatization, the private managed products have been observed more in the markets with the increase of lower grade products in the distribution channels. But the state controlled facilities are now heavily indebted and thus, the meat industry development has been irnpedded with other associated problems.
