USAgNet - 07/16/2019

With the beef industry going through continuous changes and advancements, it is important cattlemen and women across the country are "in the know", which is where the Cattlemen's Education Series (CES) comes into play.

This partnership between the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) and the National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) is designed to provide resources to NCBA state and breed affiliates through a grant which allows them to extend outstanding educational experiences locally. The mission of the CES is to provide cutting-edge information to beef producers that contributes to increased knowledge, profitability and sustainability.

With approximately 32 percent of the Nation's 2018 corn crop being utilized as animal feed, this partnership is important as it promotes corn products and by-products utilized in the cattle industry.

"I understand the importance of being able to deliver a quality product for my customers," said Missouri farmer Gary Porter. "I take pride knowing the crop I grow will end up in so many outlets."

Porter also serves as the liaison to the National Cattlemen's Beef Association for the National Corn Growers Association. "Our ability to produce an abundant and high-quality crop, makes corn an attractive feedstock for current and future end users."

The recent advances in corn fractionation technology, provides the opportunity for more tailored, species specific distillers feed products, in addition to the great value that present DDGS bring today.
