The 2022 Cattle Industry Convention & NCBA Trade Show is quickly approaching, but it’s not too late to join the herd in Houston, Feb. 1-3, where thousands of cattlemen and women from across the country will gather for education, entertainment and engagement. Registration is available online or it can be handled on-site.

The 2022 Convention will include five general sessions packed with timely industry updates, inspirational speakers and important information that every producer can use. And the NCBA Trade Show is the biggest ever encompassing nearly 10 acres of exhibitors, displays and educational opportunities all under one roof.

The convention is preceded by the 29th annual Cattlemen’s College, which begins Monday, Jan. 31, with afternoon sessions and live animal demonstrations, followed by an evening reception, then continuing the next day with 15 educational sessions and a keynote presentation and lunch.

Wednesday’s two general sessions focus on today’s issues and tomorrow’s outlook featuring a state of the industry overview and updates on taxes, cattle markets, conservation, animal health, trade, infrastructure and much more. CattleFax’s outlook seminar highlights demand and supplies for beef, cattle and competing proteins as well as an extensive weather forecast. The Closing General Session on Thursday will celebrate the Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) Program and BQA award winners and features two-time Pro Bowl quarterback Joe Theismann.

Daily networking activities in the trade show such as the Whiskey Tasting reception and Pups & Suds Yappy Hour are always popular, and evening entertainment includes live music, local food and a lot of fun. Everyone is sure to enjoy the Cowboy Comedy Club featuring headliner Jim Gaffigan on Thursday.
