Japanese buyers visit Wisconsin to learn about US dairy cattle and beef quality
USMEF’s Tokyo office led a team of foodservice buyers to Wisconsin last month to examine dairy cattle production and learn about dairy beef quality.
“Team members learned about dairy cattle breeding and raising and the production differences between beef cattle and dairy cattle,” says USMEF Marketing Director Tatsuru Kasatani. “Most important, we were able to demonstrate the high quality of beef from dairy steers and cows. These buyers are now very receptive to purchasing these products from the United States”.
Funding support was provided by the Beef Checkoff Program and Wisconsin Beef Council. The tour was also supported by the Wisconsin Corn Promotion Board and Wisconsin Department of Agriculture.
