The activities of the Wyoming Stock Growers Association can be conveniently categorized as:
* Advocating on issues affecting the cattle industry, Wyoming agriculture and rural community living
* Providing members with timely information regarding events in the cattle industry and the activities of the association
* Promoting the role of the Wyoming cattle industry in resource stewardship, animal care and the production of high-quality safe and nutritious beef
ADVOCACY
* WSGA pursues it mission of advocacy primarily through effective lobbying at both state and national levels by volunteer leadership and experienced staff. The association makes it a high priority to develop productive professional relationships with state elected officials and government agencies. Our efforts are closely coordinated with our sister Wyoming agricultural organizations and with other interest groups with whom we can identify common ground.
* The association maintains a legal fund to enable it to initiate, defend or support litigation on critical issues with the potential to have a major impact on its members’ ranching enterprises. The legal fund is supported entirely through voluntary contributions.
WSGA-AGPAC is the political action committee of the association. AGPAC recruits and supports the election of members of the Wyoming legislature whose philosophies are conducive to favorable consideration of the policy positions of the association on issues before the legislature. The PAC accepts non-deductible political contributions from members and supporters.

Articles about the production of beef cattle and livestock.
PRODUCERS MUST PROMOTE INDUSTRY ACCURATELY
On a day to day basis every producer has the task of bringing consistent, accurate information to the marketplace in an effort of promote the beef product and to support this way of life. Understanding the challenge this presents in the marketplace and in the media is an important part of the battle and is the reason for this series of articles.
SOUTHEASTERN CALF PRICES STILL SHOWING IMPROVEMENT
For decades, cattle from the southeastern U.S. have sold at a discount compared to cattle from the Midwest. Data says they deserve better, according to a beef cattle specialist with Certified Angus Beef LLC.
IT'S THE PITTS -- DUDES AND DESPERADOES
Greed and stupidity must both travel on the same chromosome.
TOOLS FOR GENETIC PREDICTION HAVE EXPLODED
If you long for the good old days when a keen eye and perhaps a basic knowledge of cow families was more than enough to sort bulls, you're not alone. Though genetic selection is more accurate than ever, it can also seem more complex than the Tax Code.
A.I. IS BEEF INDUSTRY'S MOST UNDERUSED TOOL
This article will review the value that AI has to offer to the beef cattle producer and attempt to illustrate some of the production and economic benefits of this powerful resource. Hopefully we'll see some converts.
RIDGEFIELD FARM NAMED BREEDER OF THE YEAR
Ridgefield Farm, Brasstown, N.C. was selected as the 2009 Braunvieh Association of America (BAA) Breeder of the Year at the BAA 25th anniversary annual meeting, national show and sale in conjunction with the National Western Stock Show, Denver Colo., January 13-15.
NCBA STRUCTURAL CONCEPT ADOPTED AT CONVENTION
In preparation for key battles it foresees for the beef industry in coming years, the National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) Board of Directors voted to adopt a report and governance structure concept by a Governance Task Force that would lead to significant structural changes to the organization.
LITTLE CREEK FARM HOSTS MAGNOLIA CLASSIC SALE
The winter storm that rolled through the South in early January brought rain, snow, ice, blustery winds and tem¬peratures that dropped into the teens in Starkville, Miss. In spite of the conditions, a good crowd arrived at the Little Creek Farms Sale Facility on January 9 to appraise the offering of Full Fleckvieh Simmental and Red Angus cattle.
HEREFORD FEMALE SELLS FOR $38,000 TO BENEFIT YOUTH FOUNDATION
A big supporter of youth in the beef industry made a sizeable contribution to the future of the Hereford breed Jan. 16 in the Beef Palace Auction Arena at the National Western Stock Show in Denver.
EXTENDING PRODUCTIVE LIFE OF BULLS PAYS DIVIDENDS
Cattlemen have always been interested in one number; in particular with their financial reports, the bottom line. Speculation quickly turns to fact if it is in red or black ink, but how that figure came to be has been a mystery for some.
IT'S THE PITTS--THE MISSING MIDDLE
The middle class has gone missing in this country. In America today it seems like we have the super wealthy and we have the poor, with the middle class nowhere to be found.
THE WORLD ACCORDING TO HOOTER MCCORMICK--OLD FRIENDS-OLD ACQUAINTANCES
Hooter ran through his mental list one more time as he started his pickup.
GENERAL PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENTS OFFER PRODUCERS MOST FLEXIBILITY
At one point or another, most cattle operations form a partnership with another person or entity. Perhaps it is a partnership on a single head of cattle (e.g., a flush cow, a bull in a stud, a show heifer) or perhaps it is a more long-term partnership where profits and losses will be shared among family members or cattle operations.
BE AWARE OF BREEDING GUARANTEES WHEN BUYING BULLS
Run enough bulls long enough and it's not a matter of whether one will become unusable; it's a matter of when and how many.
EXPORT MARKETS OPEN UP NEW MARKETING POSSIBILITIES
Marketing plans often take many shapes or forms depending on the firm's overall goals. Developing untapped resources often adds another option for these outfits to make a profit. As production costs continue to rise, market diversity will sometimes help defray expense.
