New regulations proposed by the USDA’s Grain Inspection Packers & Stockyards Administration — GIPSA — will hurt large and small cattle producers alike and if implemented, it will be consumers who will be hit the hardest.
That was the opinion of a Kansas Livestock Association official and a Colorado State University agricultural economist who spoke Thursday to about 50 Colorado cattle feeders and ranchers at a program hosted by the Greeley-based Colorado Livestock Association.
