The Nebraska Beef Council is seeking candidates in four districts to serve on the board of directors in 2023. Directors volunteer their time to represent fellow beef producers while overseeing Beef Checkoff collections and investments on the state, national, and international level.

The Board’s major responsibility is to oversee checkoff expenditures by determining promotion, research, and education programs for checkoff investments. The term is four years and will begin on January 2, 2023.
