Beef Pool

We are actively procuring for our cull cow program in the Midwest and Mideast (Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky) regions. Additional regions continue to be considered. If you are an organic dairy producer and interested in marketing your cull cows through our program, please contact the Farmer Hotline: 888-809-9297.

We are not actively procuring for our finished beef program at this time.

Requirements:

Cull Cow:

• “Cull cows for slaughter” must be on your organic certificate.
• Livestock must be managed organically from the last third of gestation.
• The use of approved parasiticides (Ivermectin) disqualifies the animal for organic slaughter.

Finished Beef:

• All farms must be organically certified.
• All delivered finished beef cattle must grade USDA Choice.
• All cattle must meet the production standards of the Beef pool.

Pay Price:

All cattle are paid on carcass weight. Pricing programs are set by the CROPP Board of Directors with feedback from the membership. Please contact the cooperative for current pricing details.
