The demand for buffalo has grown rapidly in popularity over the past few years as consumers have discovered the great taste and nutritional benefits of bison meat.
The ability to continue supplying the growing marketplace, however, requires that the bison industry expand its production of good quality animals.
Last year, many of the leading processors teamed with the National Bison Association to revitalize the NBA’s Bison Check-off Program. This combined effort has two major priorities:
1. Continue to promote bison to the American public.
2. Promote bison ranching as a viable and profitable agricultural enterprise.
Now we need your help to get the message out.
The NBA has developed materials informing agricultural lenders about the viability of supporting expansion in bison production. Along with the many industry materials, we continue to develop consumer driven promotions, as well as materials for trade shows targeting producers that are looking into bison as a viable alternative for their agricultural enterprises.
These efforts are in addition to the ongoing work the National Bison Association is conducting to promote bison sales in the retail and the food service arenas.
But it isn’t cheap!
That’s why we are asking you to Check-off $1 per head of bison that you process to support these educational and outreach programs. Now is the time to step up to the plate. Invest in the future of the buffalo business. Remember, that all check-off contributions are fully tax deductible as a business expense.
Contribute to the Check-off program today and encourage your meat processor to participate as well and we’ll continue to grow the American bison industry together.
As always, your ongoing support of the National Bison Association’s efforts and you’re dedication to the bison industry at large is greatly appreciated. We look forward to continuing to work with you as we meet the opportunities and challenges ahead together.
