Sorting Pen: The California Cattleman Podcast
Season 5, Episode 20
To learn more about the conversations had during CCA’s recent “fly-in” to Washington, D.C., on this episode we first talk with CCA Feeder Chair Mike Sulpizio of Superior Cattle Feeders, as the New World screwworm situation and the border closure was a top priority he took to on that trip.
After we hear from Mike, stay tuned for updates from the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association’s CEO Colin Woodall about the latest announcement from USDA on Sept. 22 that New World screwworm flies were found less than 70 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. Colin will share what NCBA’s outlook on the situation, USDA’s handling of it and more.
