Initiated 1898, the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) is the oldest and largest national trade association representing America’s cattlemen and women. With more than 25,000 individual members and 60 state and breed affiliates, NCBA serves as the collective voice of the U.S. beef industry. We strive to advance the economic, political and social interests of the U.S. cattle industry and to advocate for its policy positions and economic interests.
The decisions being made today in Washington, D.C. will impact America’s ranches, farms and feedlots for generations to come. To continue our way of life, we need to make sure our needs are being met in our nation’s capital. Over 98% of the United States population is NOT involved in agriculture. With less than 2% of Americans producing the food for the entire U.S. and beyond, we must stand together. Anyone with a stake in the beef and cattle industry needs to be a member of NCBA to ensure our voices are being heard loud and clear. Congress listens to the loudest voices. The more members we have, the louder our voices become.
