The airplane took off on runway 16 and was climbing to traffic pattern altitude when the engine lost power. The pilot elected to land the airplane in a field south of the airport. During the landing roll, the airplane impacted two cows and a fence. Examination of the engine revealed that the throttle linkage was disconnected from the fuel injector body.
Probable Cause: the in-flight separation of the throttle linkage, which resulted in the loss of engine power.
