SAN ANTONIO, Texas—By a
narrow margin, directors of the
National Live Stock and Meat
Board here took action to move
toward consolidation with the
National Cattlemen’s Association
to form a new organization to rep
resent the beef industry.
According to current Meat
Board bylaws, such a change in the
organization’s structure required
75 percent of directors to approve
the changes. Citing the loss of
effective multi-species, programs
in the interest of a beef-specific
future, directors voting against the
consolidation said they wanted to
send the message that there would
continue to be a need for “meat”
programs and that the separate
industry organizations would have
to work hard to continue these
programs. The issue passed by a
margin of only 75.2 percent.
Meat Board Chairman Jim
Hauge said, “Today is a difficult
and sentimental time," but noted
that the plan represented what
amounted to the best course of
action for the : ndividual species.
And Ron Curtis, chairman of the
Meat Board’s Beef Industry Coun
cil, said that while the plan wasn't
perfect it was “the best plan possi
ble,” and said, “the federation (of
state beef councils) will remain the
strong foundation on which a
consumer-driven beef organiza
tion can be built” John Lacey, a
former NC A president and a mem
ber of the Meat Board Executive
Committee, said it was time for the
industry “to move forward with

The actions taken by Meat
Board directors: (1) supported the
beef industry reorganization plan;
(2) approved the bylaws of the new
organization; (3) approved the
concept of a joint agreement with
the Beef Board; (4) empowered the
current Meat Board executive
board to negotiate and execute the
necessary transfers of governance,
