Beef…Beef. . .Beef. . .

A  beef  operation looks like….

A pasture full of  cattle so the cattle are free to to roam around and coral pins to keep them together when needed. The industry is 30,000,000 in the us and oregon has 500 acers .  The beef products get to us by shipping trucks and  unloaded by us. 

The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association and the Public Lands Council  are strongly opposing the so-called “America’s Commitment to Clean Water Act,” introduced by James Oberstar . The Act would remove the word "navigable" from the definition of “waters of the United States” under the Clean Water Act, granting the federal government unprecedented regulatory authority over all waters regardless of whether or not they have any environmental significance.

The future of the 1 million cattle farmers and ranchers in this country depends on producing a safe, wholesome and nutritious food tailored to the needs of consumers. For many farmers and ranchers, raising cattle is a family tradition.
