Montana Organic Producer Co-op is a collaborative marketing cooperative for qualifying organic producers of agricultural products. Focus is currently on certified organic grassfed beef, but will soon expand into lamb and other meat proteins as supplies and opportunities grow. Grain marketing will follow with an organic grain marketing division. MOPC is affiliated with a network of other farmer marketing cooperatives and OFARM to share information, contacts, pricing, and to develop marketing opportunities for member producers. MOPC's purpose is threefold: 1) to find markets for members' products and negotiate fair, stable, consistent pricing; 2) to act as an information source for member producers, and to provide grading and yield data back to producers so they can better manage their crops and herds; 3) to speak for organic farmers' interests in legislative matters and with the NOP, and in other instances as warranted.
WESTERN GRASSLANDS BEEF COOPERATIVE
My name is Wayne Langston and I am the Production Manager for Western Grasslands, Inc. out in California. Our Quality Control Manager is Pam Cooper.
Western Grasslands is a grass-fed and organic beef marketing company who helps ranchers and producers market their quality all natural and organic grass-fed cattle in California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, and Nevada. Our mission and goals are to bring the producers the maximum premium return on the high quality product they are producing.
Western Grasslands would love to help any producers looking for assistance in this area and would be glad to talk with them about our programs. If you are receiving contact from any producers and would like to refer them to our company please feel free to do so. I would be glad to visit with beef cattle producers on the west coast or anywhere in the U.S. about how Western Grasslands can help them market their cattle.
