I am on the New York Beef Producers’ Association (“NYBPA”) Government Relations Committee with Nicole Tommell from Fonda, New York. Together we have started a Facebook page to start keeping the membership updated on state and local policy that may affect New York beef producers. You can also follow the legislative alerts on Twitter @NYBeefLeg. I will also be blogging here from time-to-time on New York agriculture policies that may specifically affect the beef industry. If you are interested in joining the NYBPA Government Relations Committee and/or want to send us information
, please email nybeeflegislation@gmail.com.
Additionally, New York Farm Bureau, New York Agri-Women, and New York Beef Industry Council are all on Facebook. I suggest following their feeds for information affecting the New York beef industry. I also post some legislative updates on the firm’s Facebook and Twitter pages. I also recommend following @BeefUSA on Twitter.
