Producers in Morris, Manitoba, can now access the March 2026 edition of Cattle Country, the latest industry update from Manitoba Beef Producers. This publication is released eight times each year and is written by beef producers to help others in the industry stay informed about recent news and technical updates.
The latest issue details ongoing work to represent the interests of local farmers at both the provincial and federal levels. Specifically, the group is currently speaking out against proposed changes from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency regarding how livestock are tracked across the country.
While the publication focuses on the beef industry, it arrives as the broader livestock sector continues to be a major part of the regional economy. In 2024, the hog sector alone accounted for 46 per cent of all livestock receipts in the province, totaling about $1.58 billion.
For those in the Red River Valley, the resource serves as a central point for feature stories and updates on organizational activities. It is designed to help local farmers remain connected to the wider agricultural community while staying up to date on government rules and research funding.
