How much beef do I get?

Buying beef directly from a local farmer or ranchers often involves purchasing a half or quarter share of a live animal. Understanding roughly how much beef you will receive is a key to having a great experience and getting the value you seek.

Icon Key

BQA Certified - Beef Quality Assuranceis a program that trains farmers and ranchers on best practice cattle management techniques to ensure their animals and the environment are cared for within a standard set of guidelines and regulations across the U.S. beef industry.

WSDA Organic

Grass Fed - Animals spend their whole lives eating grass or forage.

Grain Finished - Animals spend the majority of their lives eating grass or forage and then are finished on grain.

Direct Marketing - Business sells products or services directly to the public, e.g. by mail order or telephone selling, rather than through retailers.

*A note to beef marketers:Any producer marketing cattle of that producer's own production in the form of beef or beef products to consumers, either directly or through retail or wholesale outlets, or for export purposes, shall remit to the Washington State Beef Commission an assessment on such cattle at the rate of one $1.50 per head.
