Recent emissions data shows that the beef sector accounts for just 2.3% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. While there's always more work to be done when it comes to a sustainable future for our industry, we're proud to represent cattlemen and women who work hard every day to improve the sustainability of every bite of beef while also producing a product that's nutrient-rich and packed with protein. 🥩

While America's ranchers may not have the luxury of a 3 day weekend, you better believe they're still remembering why the rest of the nation has one. - - - #america #memorialday #beef #feedingamerica #idaho #cattle #honorthefallen #somegaveall
We celebrate beef every day here in Idaho, but May is just as good a time as any to remind you of some GREAT reasons to eat beef : 🥩Beef is a natural source of 10 essential nutrients! 🤗Ranchers care for their animals and the industry has evolved over the years to more efficiently continue to feed America's growing population while decreasing negative environmental impact through upcycling of byproducts and supporting regenerative rangeland practices, just to name a couple. ⭐America has the world's SAFEST beef supply! 🍔The industry leverages exporting less desirable cuts to other countries while importing quality (& safe) trim to supplement our appetite for ground beef products. 🌱Cattle & grazing are good for the environment! Cattle contribute less than 2% to greenhouse gas emissions and through properly managed grazing also support carbon sequestration, as well as help mitigate wildfire risks. - - - #beef #idaho #cattle #beefmonth #idahocattle #grazingisgood

Have you heard about ICA's Grass Futurity competition? It's an annual event where participants donate a calf to compete & see how their entry stacks up against the others through a 90 day average daily gain comparison! Since calves are donated to ICA, a buyer is procured at the end of the competition and proceeds go to fund our PAC & CALF funds, to name a few. Participants get a gift for participating, as well as potential monthly awards and overall payout, as well as stats including carcass data & genetics information provided by our sponsors - you can use this data as a tool for fine tuning your herd goals, or simply donate a calf to support these beneficiaries! Have questions? Call our office to ask or enter today! - - - #beef #idaho #cattle #idahocattle
