The updated site contains a library of research fact sheets, project summaries, executive summaries, etc., and features a user-friendly filter process to ease the visitor’s ability to find the right information. Now, the viewer can go to the program area of interest, then filter by topic, type and date. With hundreds of research items, this functionality makes for a much-improved website experience. An added feature for those on the move is accessibility from all mobile devices — laptopos, tablets and smartphones.

The Beef Checkoff Program was established as part of the 1985 Farm Bill. The checkoff assesses $1 per head on the sale of live domestic and imported cattle, in addition to a comparable assessment on imported beef and beef products. States retain up to 50 cents on the dollar and forward the other 50 cents per head to the Cattlemen's Beef Promotion and Research Board, which administers the national checkoff program, subject to USDA approval.
