Kansas Cattlemen Concerned Over Farm Bill Amendment to Mandate Egg Production
"It is great to see how it (Creekstone Farms) has created a program that produces a consistent top quality product. With their age and source program, Creekstone can track back their product to each individual rancher. This is a great example of how the industry and cattlemen have come together to develop a voluntary animal I.D. system without government stepping in and mandating it," stated KCA Director and El Dorado cattleman Mason Greene.
"Holding events like this holds great importance in our industry because we always want to share with consumers how wholesome, healthy, and safe beef is. By touring Creekstone, we are not only showcasing state-of-the-art facilities but also the efficiency and quality that they send out to the store shelves on a daily basis. Not everyone understands production from farm to fork but by holding these types of events, we are hoping to educate more and more consumers on the positives of beef production," stated KCA event coordinator Kelsey Gibson.
KCA would like to thank Creekstone Farms and Christine Tanner for their hospitality and all of the sponsors who made this event possible: Howard State Bank-Howard, Bluestem Veterinary Clinic-Cedar Vale, Winfield Livestock Auction-Winfield, Mid American Credit Union-Arkansas City, Valley Co-Op, Inc.-Winfield, Prairieland Partners-Winfield, Ark Valley Credit Union-Arkansas City, Bank of the West-Winfield, Schmidt & Sons-Winfield, Citizens Bank of Kansas - Winfield, Caney Valley Electric Co-Op-Cedar Vale, Community National Bank-Winfield, Cowley County Farm Bureau-Winfield, and RCB Bank-Ark.City.
