NCBA Hoping to Come Out of 2010 Meeting More Relevant to Meet Challenges to Beef Industry
Wed, 27 Jan 2010 6:01:44 CST
The 2010 Cattle Industry Convention and Trade Show is starting to show some signs of life here in downtown San Antonio- and as cattle producers gather from all over the United States, several key issues are on the minds of producers as they arrive. One of the topics that has generated a lot of interest is really an internal one- the future structure of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association.
On today's Beef Buzz, we hear from one of the officers of the NCBA, Bill Donald, Vice President of the group, who is a cattle producer from Montana. Donald says this convention is where NCBA will "take the next step" on governance goals as outlined by the task force that's been working on the issue for the past 18 months. They'll report here at the convention and a vote will be taken on it Saturday. Bill says it will make them "more inclusive, more efficient and more effective" in representing producers across the country. It's a major step in the ongoing evolution of the organization.
The Beef Buzz is a regular feature heard on radio stations around the state on the Radio Oklahoma Network- but is also a regular audio feature found on this website as well.
