The Indiana Beef Cattle Association (IBCA), in cooperation with Purdue University and Purdue Extension, has set the dates and locations for its 10 Area Beef meetings.
These meetings are open to all beef producers and will dot the Indiana landscape from early-December 2022 to mid-January 2023. The meetings feature great food and valuable information on association events and programs. IBCA staff will provide updates on state and national beef issues while Purdue Extension will share educational presentations on a variety of subjects related to beef production.
“We are excited about this year’s area meetings and hearing from our members about their current situations and their outlook for future opportunities within the beef industry,” said Joe Moore, IBCA’s Executive Vice President. “We look forward to learning about their issues at the grassroots level.”
