Beef checkoff debated by Agriculture Department officials
Top Agriculture Department officials say they will remain officially neutral on the proposed beef promotion and research checkoff plan. Some insiders favor the proposal while others oppose, with a referendum expected mid July to decide its fate. The extension service says it will educate cattle owners on pros and cons, not advocate a yes or no. Registration could begin in mid June and voting would follow about a month later. If approved, the checkoff would be three tenths of one percent of cattle value, with refunds available on request. A Purdue University study reports higher egg intake plus exercise lowers cholesterol in men, while inactive men show no change.
