Initiated in 1898, the National Cattlemen's Beef Association is the marketing organization and trade association for America's one million cattle farmers and ranchers. With offices in Denver and Washington, D.C., NCBA is a consumer-focused, producer-directed organization representing the largest segment of the nation's food and fiber industry. NCBA works to achieve the vision: "A dynamic and profitable beef industry, which concentrates resources around a unified plan, consistently meets global consumer needs and increases demand."

As the nation’s largest beef breed organization, the American Angus Association serves more than 21,000 members across the United States and Canada. The Association provides programs, resources and leadership that improve and promote the Angus breed, enhance the livelihoods of family farmers and ranchers, and exceed consumers’ expectations. The American Angus Association is more than just a membership organization. We are independent cattlemen and women who will collectively lead the beef industry into the future. We have over 140 years of rich history and heritage, but we’re not willing to rest just yet. Together, we are improving the Angus breed and therefore, the profitability of the commercial cattlemen who trust us with their livelihoods.

The American Simmental Association believes the best way to serve its members, its members’ customers and the beef industry is through continual improvement and use of genetic and associated technologies. As such, the Association will continue to be a worldwide leader in the development and integration of these technologies for the beef industry. The Association will initiate and foster relationships with like-minded entities to enhance our ability to achieve this objective. The Association will be widely recognized as having an unyielding commitment to scientific principles and as a hub for the industry's most progressive seed stock producers – an organization that is extremely cooperative with all facets of the industry and tirelessly devoted to the success of its members and its members' customers.
