California Cattlemen's Association

The California Cattlemen's Association (CCA) is a non-profit trade association representing beef cattle producers, including ranchers and feeders, throughout California. Founded in 1917, the organization serves as a primary voice for the state's cattle industry in legislative and regulatory arenas. CCA focuses on promoting the economic viability of cattle production while advancing environmental stewardship and sustainable land management practices. The association provides its members with resources related to animal health, food safety, and industry-specific research. While not a biotechnology or pharmaceutical developer, it plays a vital role in the agricultural sector by interfacing with government agencies and supporting the livestock supply chain.
