Wed, 17 Jun 2020 07:25:53 CDT
Beef prices and stocking shortages from the Covid-19 pandemic have consumers have been asking how they can support local, and buy beef directly from
ranchers. The Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association (OCA) partnered with AgBoost to build a powerful
resource to meet this skyrocketing demand. This powerful application, a product of AgBoost's
synergistic partnership with the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association, connects buyers to sellers by
enabling individual member ranches the ability to list product, speak to consumers, and sell beef directly
to the public.
"We are grateful for our partnership with AgBoost and appreciate their willingness to house the OCA
Member Beef Direct Sales database which will make it easier for beef consumers to locate our members
selling beef direct," said Mike Weeks, OCA President. "The new searchable list is a win for the
consumer, the beef producer, and for AgBoost when producers take advantage of this cutting-edge
app."
The new AgBoost Marketplace will allow ranchers the ability to market live animals along with the data
that has been collected on those animals to interested buyers. Product and service providers may also
list and sell products to potential customers.
"We would like to provide an interactive and efficient way for our users to easily look up, research and
initiate contact with providers" said Mark Tague, VP of Sales and Marketing for AgBoost. "By allowing
users a simple, interactive platform, we hope to continue expanding our marketplace by providing the
best user experience."
As part of AgBoost's recent update to the application, the herd management feature in the application is
now free to all users.
"Our goal is to provide our users access to technology for the benefit of their individual operations. We
believe by giving producers the ability to advertise their animals, genetics, products, and services online,
we believe we can offer them a competitive advantage," said Sean Akadiri, AgBoost Founder.
