Shad Sullivan - The Agenda Against The Beef Industry
Manage episode 348574424 series 3319768
“Once we get three generations away from the farm, we lose consciousness of where our food comes from.” -Shad Sullivan
Have you ever wondered if the meat you buy in the store actually comes from the US?
What can you do to restore country-of-origin labels on all beef sold at every supermarket and grocery store?
In this episode, Shad will discuss the market trends affecting consumers who are struggling to put high-quality beef on their plates. He will also talk about the impact of the centralized system on American beef producers and consumers access to the highest-quality beef originally produced in the US and what we can do about it to help strengthen national food security and help stimulate economic growth.
Shad Sullivan is the R-CALF USA Private Property Rights Committee Chair. Sullivan is a fifth-generation native of southeast Colorado. Raised in the family stocker operation on Antelope Mesa in northwestern Crowley County, Shad learned early on the importance of hard work, dedication, loyalty, and integrity. He is a graduate of Crowley County High School and earned his Bachelor of Science Degree in Agriculture/Animal Science from West Texas A&M University in 1996. After a short stint instructing and coaching equine evaluation at Clarendon College, Shad returned to the family ranching operation to help perpetuate the family tradition of land stewardship and beef production. His greatest love is watching the cattle grow.
