Plans to change the National Cattlemen's Beef Association governance structure have been suspended to give the Federation of State Beef Councils an opportunity to clarify its role and intentions to all industry stakeholders.

Scott George - Division Chair of NCBA's Federation - says the group is not turning its back on revising its governance structure - but is turning its attention to U.S. producers to ensure a governance structure that fosters unity within the industry is developed. He said the unintended controversy around NCBA's proposal was getting in the way of an accurate discussion about the Federation.

Chuck Adami with Equity Livestock represents Wisconsin on the Federation.
