Podcast: Putting American Beef back on Japanese Plates

In this podcast, Mark Jagels, Nebraska Corn Board Director and Chair-Elect for the U.S. Meat Export Federation, shares about the mission to Japan recently. The Nebraska Corn Board sent two of its members—plus two representatives of the Nebraska Cattlemen and one from the Nebraska Corn Growers—to Japan to visit with key customers and see what USMEF is doing.

While the group was there, USMEF sponsored a luncheon featuring a popular TV cooking show host who prepared dishes with U.S. beef and pork. Also, they hosted a large seminar on U.S. beef and pork, which was attended by 640 Japanese meat buyers. After the seminar, they were all treated to a buffet featuring a wide variety of beef and pork dishes.
