Huff, North Dakota rancher Mary Graner is a member of the Cattlemen’s Beef Board executive committee and helped review proposals for beef checkoff investments during the Cattle Industry Summer Business Meeting. Graner is focused on research. “What we need to do as producers right now is highlight why beef is better, why red meat is better and we’ve got to stay away from the fake meat,” said Graner. “We have to prove that we have a good product that’s safe and healthy to eat. That’s my priority here.” Graner values her role on the national beef checkoff board. “We are here to make sure with the checkoff dollar that you get more bang for your buck.”
