Iowa Beef Checkoff Votes Certified

The Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship certified the results of the Iowa Beef Checkoff referendum last week, officially setting March 1, 2017 as the date collections will begin. The 50-cent per head checkoff passed with 56 percent of the more than 1,700 producers voting in favor of reinstating the assessment. The Iowa beef checkoff is mandatory, but refunds will be made available to interested producers. The federal beef checkoff of $1 per head remains in place and is not affected by the Iowa vote.
