关于我们
The Kansas Beef Council was first formed in 1973 by the Kansas Livestock Association for the purpose of beef promotion. The Kansas Beef Council is directed by a board of volunteer cattle producers from across the state. In May 1988, a national referendum was passed requiring $1 to be collected on each head of cattle sold. It is commonly called the $1 beef checkoff. Kansas collects about $10 million each year. Approximately 85￠ of each dollar collected in Kansas is forwarded to the national level to fund programs nationwide. There are 45 state beef councils that fund national beef promotion efforts with an approximate annual budget of $80 million. Program areas receiving checkoff funding from the Kansas Beef Council to increase demand for beef include: Advertising Retail Foodservice Research Public Relations Education Food Safety Producer Communications Nutrition The Kansas Beef Council works aggressively in all of the above areas to increase demand for beef and beef products. The checkoff is based on the following directives: It is fair. All producers and importers pay the same $1 per head. It is state based. One-half of the money collected by state beef councils -- 50 cents of every dollar -- is controlled by producers in the state. It is accountable. All checkoff-funded programs are budgeted and evaluated by the Beef Board, an independent organization of 110 checkoff-paying volunteers. It is producer-led. Beef Board members are nominated by fellow state producers

For K-State Wildcat fans, the question is not if they will hear the name of home-state hero Cooper Beebe at the 2024 NFL Draft, but rather when they will hear it. Beebe had a historic year for the Wildcats by receiving Consensus All-American status, a slew of Big 12 honors and finalist status for the William V. Campbell Trophy. There is no doubt that Beebe will excel at the professional level, and he got there by being elite on and off the field. Beebe has fueled his athletic success with beef, a high-quality protein that provides over 10 essential nutrients necessary for athletes. “It is the kinds of foods you eat. Foods with a big amount of protein is where us big guys live,” Beebe said. “High-protein options, like beef, help us power our bodies to get to where we need to be.” Beef has made an impact on Beebe’s nutrition, but he also has used it to help impact the community around him. The K-State offensive line, also known as the K-State Beef, teamed up with the Kansas Beef Council and Wildcat NIL to provide fresh ground beef to local food banks.
