ranches and farms and has long advocated for sound policies that
will preserve family-owned beef operations for generations to come. I
applaud Representatives Panetta and Walorski for their leadership and
dedication to protecting future generations of agricultural producers
who seek to preserve a multigenerational legacy by maintaining a
family-owned business.”
In the Tax Reform Act of 1976, Congress recognized the
disproportionate burden of the death tax on agricultural producers
and created Section 2032A as a way to help farmers keep their
farms. However, the benefits of Section 2032A have been stymied
over the years as the cap on deductions has failed to keep pace with
the rising value of farmland. The Preserving Family Farms Act of
2019 increases the maximum amount allowed under the exemption
from $750,000 to $11 million (indexed for inflation), thus reviving
a critically important tool in the toolbox for farm and ranch
families across the U.S. If enacted, this legislation will provide a
permanent solution to an issue that has long plagued our nation’s
cattle producers.
NCBA Supports Effort to Combat Antimicrobial Resistance
NCBA believes that responsible use of antimicrobial drugs will aid
in preserving the future effectiveness of antimicrobial agents against
common pathogens in both human and animal species.
In 2018, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) set forward a
challenge to combat antimicrobial resistance (AMR Challenge). Since
its launch, the AMR Challenge has been one of the most ambitious
global initiatives to combat antibiotic resistance, garnering broad
support and engagement from across sectors, states and countries. In
response to the CDC’s AMR Challenge, NCBA worked to increase
participation in the Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) program. By
increasing BQA certification numbers, NCBA seeks to ensure beef
producers are responsible and judicious in their use of antimicrobial
products through every segment of the industry.
The number of beef producers who have completed certification
exceeds 318,000 producers, an increase of more than 73 percent over
last year’s number. Today, 85 percent of beef in the United States comes
from cattle which have been produced by BQA-certified cattlemen
and women. In all, a total of 318,415 producers have completed a
BQA training program.
NCBA is proud of the efforts of our beef producing community
to take steps necessary to improve and protect our beef supply. The
motto of BQA outreach is “The Right Way is the Only Way,” and
we stand behind that principle and the industry’s work to supply
consumers with the safest, highest quality beef possible.
