We appreciate the efforts of the Biden-Harris Administration to address competition, price discovery, & transparency. In 2022, we will continue to provide thoughtful guidance on each of the priorities outlined in the @WhiteHouse's Action Plan. https://t.co/2lt1JPD22Y

The Iowa Cattlemen's Association wishes you a happy new year.

We look forward to working on your behalf in 2022 and beyond!

[Iowa Dept of Agriculture & Land Stewardship @IADeptAg]

We want to hear from you!

Help us determine statewide producers' opportunities to minimize operational and supply chain disruptions, current level of FAD preparedness, expectations of roles and responsibilities during an outbreak and ways the Department can address those needs.

1/ We've long encouraged state officials to incentivize the development of beef processing capacity to meet fed cattle demand in Iowa. Today, the @BusinessIOWA Board awarded Iowa Premium tax credits through their High Quality Jobs program.

[Iowa Cattlemen @IAcattlemen]

Our partnership with @BeefUSA is valued. Together, we represent the cattle industry on several important issues��WOTUS, tax reform, etc.

Schiefelbein: If we are going to win, we have to stick together. Nobody can beat us at what we do best except ourselves.

[Iowa Cattlemen @IAcattlemen]

Don Schiefelbein, NCBA President-Elect: If not for Iowa, where would the discussion be on negotiated trade?

Iowa’s aggressiveness advanced the discussion. The introduction of 50/14 was a catalyst for change.

[Iowa Cattlemen @IAcattlemen]

Cattle are natural “upcyclers.”

Mitloehner: Cellulose is the world’s most abundant biomass. The only animals that can make use of that are ruminants.

[Iowa Cattlemen @IAcattlemen]

We’re starting the day with some remote learning. Dr. Frank Mitloehner, also known as the @GHGGuru, presents "Rethinking Methane: Livestock’s Path to Climate Neutrality.”

[Iowa Cattlemen @IAcattlemen]

Mitloehner: Can we eat our way out of climate change? No way.

Meatless Monday isn’t an effective tool to reduce greenhouse gases.
