Beef Quality Assurance certification offered
Anyone who sells cattle including dairy is required to be BQA certified, and each person who receives sales checks — even if the cattle come from the same farm — must be certified.
The Tuscarawas County office of Ohio State University Extension will hold a Beef Quality Assurance certification training on Thursday, Dec. 13 at 7 p.m. at the Sugarcreek Livestock Auction Barn.
Wendy’s Restaurant, Tyson Foods and multiple auctions will require beef and dairy producers to be certified in BQA. Anyone who sells cattle including dairy is required to be BQA certified, and each person who receives sales checks — even if the cattle come from the same farm — must be certified.
