Talking Beef Board Business with CBB Vice Chair Weldon Wynn

Talking Beef Board Business with CBB Vice Chair Weldon Wynn


Weldon Wynn is an Arkansas cow-calf producer with a smooth baritone voice who is using that voice to speak for fellow cattle producers as an officer on the Cattlemen's Beef Board- the body responsible for collecting and spending the dollar per head beef checkoff.


According to the Beef Board website- Wynn has an impressive resume- "Weldon Wynn owns Wynn Beefmaster Farms and Wynn Rice and Soybean Farm. In addition, he and his wife own and operate Wynn Insurance Agency. He is an active member of his community and industry, including service on the board of directors of the Pine Bluff National Bank of Star City; former emcee and judge of the National Beef Cook-Off; National Beef Ambassador judge; past president and active member of the Arkansas Cattlemen's Association; member of the University of Arkansas Animal Science 2000 Advisory Council; past president, treasurer, and fair manager of the Lincoln County Fair, among many others. On the Beef Board, Weldon has served on the Beef Promotion Operating Committee, the CBB Executive Committee, the Joint Advertising Committee, for which he served as vice chair in 2010, and the Joint Beef Industry Budget Committee."


Wynn is currently serving as the Vice Chairman of the CBB- and we recently sat down and talked with him about his cattle operation in Arkansas- as well as the current atmosphere surrounding the relations between the CBB and its main contractor- the National Cattlemen's Beef Association. Wynn tells us that he believes the working relationship is stronger than ever, which he contends is a good thing for the checkoff and for the cattle industry.


The first part of our visit with Weldon makes up today's Beef Buzz.


The Beef Buzz is a regular feature heard on radio stations around the region on the Radio Oklahoma Network- but is also a regular audio feature found on this website as well. Click on the listen bar below for today's show- and check out our archives for older Beef Buzz shows covering the gamut of the beef cattle industry today.
