Title
Davis and Kelsey Serve on Shawnee County Cattle Task Force
Description
Dean Davis and Scott Kelsey, both of Rossville, and Mrs. Virg Huseman, Topeka, have volunteered to be county coordinators of the Kansas Beef Development Taskforce (KBDT).
A state organization of cattle producers, the KBDT is supporting a "yes" vote in the national beef referendum to promote the industry through increased beef promotion, consumer education, research and foreign market development.
The Taskforce estimates the program to raise $30-40 million a year through a national voluntary check-off program of three-tenths of one percent on the sale value of all cattle. More than 80 national and 20 state producer organizations have endorsed it.
As Shawnee County coordinators they will be organizing campaign efforts to pass the referendum by holding county meetings and disseminating information.
