While the head of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) says the group is thankful beef producers will be getting more than half of the COVID-19 relief funds from the USDA, NCBA head Colin Woodall told Brownfield Ag News the industry does not want anything for commodity purchases.
“Given what we are seeing with the packing plants that have shut down or have scaled down we need to make sure all of that product is going directly to retail,” Woodhall said. “So, that is our preference right now. So, NCBA will not be asking for a beef buy by the U.S. government nor have we asked for a beef buy.”
