Cattle producers from across the country will be in Reno, Nevada this week for the Cattle Industry Summer Business Meeting. The event features meetings of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, Cattlemen’s Beef Promotion & Research Board, American National CattleWomen, Inc. and the National Cattlemen’s Foundation.
The cattle industry comes together twice a year to discuss current issues as a group, to work on programs and initiatives, and to set the course they should take with various projects for the betterment of the beef cattle industry.
During the Summer Business meeting, cattle industry members will meet in both NCBA Policy committees and subcommittees, as well as joint committees and subcommittees to discuss current developments, to work on initiatives developed at the annual Cattle Industry Convention and to make plans for the upcoming fiscal year that begins Oct. 1.
While the official dates are July 25-27, ANCW members got together on Sunday to begin two days-worth of meetings. Most of the NCBA meetings are scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday.
