Resolutions

Resolutions provide direction in the focal areas of the commission – guiding your investment in the industry.

In January and February, cattle producers come together at ABP’s Producer Meetings, where action items for the commission are discussed in the form of resolutions. Those resolutions that are carried through Producer Meetings see another chance for discussion – primarily either at a Board of Directors meeting or the Annual General Meeting.

Below you’ll find a list of resolutions that were carried at both a Producer Meeting and their respective follow-up.

The resolutions included below are from 2023 on. Older resolutions are included below the search directory.
