It’s time once again for the Cattle Industry Convention. This week I’ll feature on-site coverage here on AgWired. But in addition to that I’ll also be blogging on the Cattlemen’s Beef Board blog. This first ever effort to use a new media option to more openly communicate Beef Checkoff information to cattle producers should be interesting. I encourage you to visit and let me know what you think.

We’ve created individual pages for each organizational committee that contain the meeting agenda and minutes from the last committee meeting. Like regular posts, these pages also have a comment feature. We are inviting producers to comment and pose questions, ideas and suggestions. They have already started to do so.

I will offer some information in follow up after the conference is over because this seems to be an idea that would have application to many other organizations.
