The 15-person task force has met several times since the initial meeting in early May 2020 and was
formed with the mission of exploring opportunities that can be provided to Oklahoma beef cattlemen
and women specifically in the area of beef packing and processing.

The OCA is the trusted voice of the Oklahoma Cattle Industry. OCA is the only voice that speaks solely
for the cattlemen of Oklahoma and represents beef producers in all 77 counties across the state. For
