The Cattlemen’s Beef Board Sets $38.1M Budget
Beef promotion, consumer information, foreign marketing, producer communication and research will be among the top fiscal priorities for the Cattlemen’s Beef Board (CBB) in fiscal 2026.
The organization that also manages the Beef Checkoff program is committing a total of $38.1 million to support the industry through a plan that also includes funding for 14 grant proposals, the group announced. The 2026 fiscal plan also includes: $25.1 million to the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, $7.9 million to the U.S. Meat Export Federation (USMEF) and $1.8 million to the Cattlemen’s Beef Board.
The CBB’s fiscal 2026 budget for the fiscal year that started Oct. 1 remains subject to USDA approval.

Trade Relations Between China & The U.S. Take Serious Turn
The ongoing trade issues between the United States and China are heating up as recent tariff announcements move closer to implementation. President Trump says he may end some trade relationships with China in light of the trading partner’s refusal to buy soybeans from U.S. farmers. China is the world’s largest importer of soybeans, but recently cut its purchase of U.S. soybeans after the imposition of 100% tariffs on Chinese-made goods on Nov. 1 or sooner. The trade dispute between the two superpowers have been strained since this spring after China did not renew operational permits of U.S. beef processing facilities, which have severely hampered shipments of U.S. beef products into China.

Kansas Cattle Thefts
With the continued surge in cattle prices, cattle thefts are also on the rise. Pawnee County, Kansas was the next location to get hit. And just one month ago in Cowley County Kansas, 30 head came up missing. If you see any suspicious activity, report it to your state department of agriculture and the local sheriff’s office.
