Cattle Industry Conference starts Wednesday
Meetings of the various councils and committees are a big part of the Cattle Industry Summer Conference.
The Cattle Industry Summer Conference takes place August 7-10 in Denver. The conference features meetings of National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA), Cattlemen’s Beef Promotion & Research Board (CBB), American National CattleWomen, Inc. and National Cattlemen’s Foundation.
According to NCBA president Scott George, the summer conference is where cattle producers discuss current issues as a group, work on programs and initiatives and set the course the industry should take with various projects for the betterment of the beef cattle industry. George says the event gives cattle farmers and ranchers an opportunity to engage in NCBA’s grassroots policy process while also networking with and learning from other cattlemen and women from across the country.
“We are looking forward to an action-packed conference this summer in Denver,” George says. “In order to continue being successful, cattle producers must continue to be engaged in the policy process so that the beef industry remains viable and beef continues to be on kitchen tables around the country and the world.”
