Adaptability: Moving Forward, Part 2
By Martha Crump
As promised, this month will be a look at how 2022 has prepared us to move forward. While we have all been busy with our cattle enterprises, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association has been busy doing the public relations job we do not have the time or expertise to pursue. The Federation of State Beef Councils is a division of the NCBA and a contractor to the Beef Checkoff. The Federation represents the 44 Qualified State Beef Councils and includes more than 700 state board members representing every segment of the beef industry.
Their vision is “To build beef demand by inspiring, unifying and supporting an effective state and national Checkoff partnership.” They also push for strong state and national partnerships which result in increased consumer demand for beef and higher consumer confidence.
In 2022, $4.5 million was contributed by the Federation to supplement the approximately $40 million national plan the Beef Promotion Operating Committee put forth for promotion, research, industry information, and consumer information.
