The proposed Montana Cattle Committee envisions a healthy, sustainable marketplace for all Montana beef and cattle producers.

With a mission to strengthen the cattle industry and safeguard the state’s ranching heritage, the proposed Montana Statutory Commodity Board will enhance profitability by funding research, education, beef promotion and domestic and international market expansion, the group said.

Funded by a refundable $1 per-head assessment on all cattle sold, the initiative intends to provide resources for value promotion, youth programs and reputation management. Once codified by the Montana Legislature, the committee’s establishment will be decided by a vote of Montana cattle producers. For more information, visit montanacattlecommittee.com.
