What is the Michigan Cattlemen's Association?The mission of the Michigan Cattlemen’s Association is to represent all aspects of Michigan’s cattle industry and to foster, promote and protect an environment conducive to profitable beef production through services, activities and policy formation. The Michigan Cattlemen’s Association (MCA) is a nonprofit organization of beef producers.

The association coordinates and arranges meetings, tours, and other activities in an effort to promote goodwill and communication in and for the cattle industry. In addition, MCA works to represent the Michigan cattle industry in legislative matters and policy formation at the local, state and national levels. MCA collaborates with cattle and other agricultural organizations from within Michigan, from other states and is an affiliate of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association.

The Board of Directors have worked diligently to form a 501 (c) (3) organization with the mission of fostering leadership and educational opportunities for youth and young cattle producers in Michigan. We are proud to introduce the Michigan Cattlemen's Foundation to the Michigan Agricultural Community. Development of the Association's Young Cattlemen Program was one of the late MCA President Brian Plank's priorities. In Brian's memory, MCA established a fund to be used for furthering the development of the association's young producers. It is from that beginning that the idea of creating a 501 (c) (3) foundation came. As a 501 (c) (3) organization, donations to the Michigan Cattlemen's Foundation may be tax deductible to the extent allowed by the IRS tax code. We encourage anyone interested in donating to MCF to further its mission to click HERE or contact the Foundation at the Cattlemen's office at [email protected] or 517-347-8117. |
