About Us

Funding for the Secure Beef Supply (SBS) Plan and website was provided by USDA APHIS VS National Preparedness and Incident Coordination (NPIC) Center and the USDA National Animal Disease Preparedness and Response Program.

The SBS website is maintained by Iowa State University, Center for Food Security and Public Health.

The Secure Beef Supply Plan and associated resources were created and updated through collaboration between cattle producers, veterinarians, state and federal government officials, Iowa State University, Kansas State University, and the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association.
