Audubon Conservation Ranching

This year the sixteen Audubon-certified ranches in Montana were offered an opportunity to participate in a cull cow pilot project to ship cows specifically to butcher for Ikea’s popular meatballs. Those of us who opted to join the program received a premium in compensation over market value. Presumably similar programs by Audubon Ranching will follow. Clearly, Ikea sees the value in attaching their product to an environmentally positive name.
