Livestock Men Push Meat Board Promotion Plan
About 60 eastern Iowa livestock producers met at the Roosevelt hotel to hear J. C. Peterson of Spencer outline National Livestock and Meat Board expansion. The board’s current budget is about one million dollars funded by three cents per cattle head and one cent per hog and sheep head, matched by packing industry contributions. A goal of three million dollars for expanded promotion was announced as part of broader participation efforts. Meetings across Iowa, including Cedar Rapids, select county leaders to drive broader producer and processor involvement.
