MB_rancher and others,I have posted below the public meetings arranged so far by the National Farmers Union to discuss their report on the cattle crisis. If this report is to achieve anything we must have the popular support of producers. Please attend your nearest meeting and add your voice to the call for change. Only by standing together and making our voice heard will the politicians be forced to act.
