What is a relevant example of how a change in the market (including information, preferences, technology, price of alternative goods, regulations, taxes, etc.) has shifted either the supply or demand of a good. How did this change affect the market equilibrium for that good or service? Explain.
Next, find a relatively recent news article (within the past year) to support your finding (the news search feature in Google is helpful with this). If you cannot find an article specific to your example, you may find an article about another similar good or service. Talk about the article and its findings, then include the URL.

C- A new breed of cattle of cows is developed with much faster growth
D- Medical research proves that cattle of cows results in hamburgers with less cholesterol than hamburgers from sheep
E- direct subsidy on each head of cattle is given to farmers raising cattle.
