Is Every Cattleman’s Business!!
All Pennsylvania cattle producers are invited to attend one of the fall educational
meetings sponsored by the Pennsylvania Beef Council, the Pennsylvania Cattleman’s
Association, the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, the Pennsylvania live
stock Markets Association, Taylor Packing, and Moyer Packing. The meetings will
bring cattle producers the latest information on targeting breeding for customer
satisfaction, culling strategies, and enhancing beef quality and product value. The
beef industry is going through tough times and facing increasing competition, but
with good information, cattlemen can meet the challenges.
