Cattle ranchers invited to Round Butte listening session

The Montana Stockgrowers Association (MSGA) is hosting a listening session at 6 p.m. Monday, May 13, at the Round Butte Women’s Club, west of Ronan. Food and drinks will be provided and MSGA will host a drawing for a vaccine cooler.

The listening sessions are part of the organization’s Producer Profitability Initiative, a grassroots movement started and led by cattle ranchers who have a vision to create a sustainable future for the American livestock industry. All livestock producers are invited to attend.

“The livestock industry has an opportunity to come together with one another like never before. There are many issues that affect ranchers, and at the end of the day we can agree that keeping land in production agriculture and our industry strong and vibrant for generations to come is something we can all rally around,” said Lesley Robinson, MSGA vice president and chair of the Producer Profitability Initiative task force.

The Producer Profitability Initiative encourages participation from beef producers of all ages, management styles, and operations large and small whose livelihood and identity are tied to ranching and whose focus is to ensure the sustainability of the American livestock industry while providing security for the domestic food supply.
