BEEF QUALITY ASSURANCE -
A COMMITMENT TO CONSUMERS
The Wyoming BQA Program encourages all producers to feed and maintain cattle in a manner that will continue to provide a safe beef product for the consuming public.
The goal of Wyoming Beef Quality Assurance (WY BQA) program is to ensure the consumer that all cattle shipped from a beef production unit are healthy, wholesome and safe, and their management has met FDA, USDA and EPA standards. The program provides hands-on training, education and technical assistance through WY BQA certified veterinarians and UW Cooperative Extension personnel.
