Texas producers approve state beef checkoff
Beef producers in Texas have approved a new state beef checkoff.
Just over two-thirds of the seven-thousand cattlemen who voted in the referendum voted for the one dollar per head state checkoff. Collection of the new fee will begin in October.
The money will be used to support promotion, marketing, research and educational efforts for beef and beef products in Texas, across the U.S. and overseas. The state checkoff is independent from the national Beef Checkoff program, which also collects one dollar per head.
