The Wisconsin Beef Council's presence at World Dairy Expo provides an important opportunity to emphasize the role both dairy and beef producers play -- in producing high-quality beef.

Beef Council Executive Director Tammy Vaassen tells Teri Barr, the Beef Council's educational outreach during the Expo, includes conversations with students about beef's nutritional benefits and the importance of protein. She says the Beef Council provides resources for dairy farmers who are raising and finishing more dairy-beef calves, 

The interview also touches on the council's work with culinary students and chefs to promote beef, including underutilized cuts, along with new ways to prepare popular cuts. Vaassen encourages consumers and farmers to visit beeftips.com for beef recipes, nutrition information, and details about the beef checkoff.
