Virtual meeting During their 81st annual meeting Dec. 2, Idaho Farm Bureau Federation members supported three proposals that seek to make it easier for consumers to purchase meat directly from ranchers.
These proposals could simplify the pathway for cattle producers to sell directly to consumers, while maintaining a safe meat inspection process.
“The idea here is to think outside the box: How do we get safe, inspected beef to consumers in a different way?” said Lori Anne Lau, president of Caribou County Farm Bureau, which supported the proposals.
IFBF’s annual meeting brings together voting delegates from each of the state’s county Farm Bureau groups to vote on policy that guides the organization through the coming year.
