A Little History

"The meeting was over .... groups of cattle people, some with Levis and Stetsons pushed back to reveal pale foreheads and some with the rumpled attire of a professor with collars unbuttoned and ties flapping, were in lively discussion over the day's issues. All conversations centered on beef cattle performance ... laughter punctuated the sometimes intense discussions among these people of the beef industry...." From: Celebrating The First 25 Years

Why join BIF?

The human involvement that occurs in the transfer of technology results in the power of ideas. BIF is a story of how cow people neighbor together to bring about monumental change in the beef industry. The idea is to observe with objective clarity, the past, so that in the dust of the milling herds of today, the perceptions of the future on which the industry must act, can be clearly seen.
