Donation to Kansas Livestock Association will help family and independent cattle producers affected by recent wildfires

Dakota Dunes, S.D. – December 22, 2021 – �黨��ý is donating $100,000 to help support cattle farmers and ranchers affected by the recent wildfires in north central Kansas.�� Many family and independent farmers lost their homes, barns, and livestock.

“Our partnership with family and independent cattle producers is important to us, and we want to do our part to help those whose lives have been affected by the devastating wildfires,” said Shane Miller, group president, Fresh Meats for �黨��ý.�� “We’re grateful for the longstanding relationships we have with our Kansas independent cattle suppliers and stand beside them during this difficult time.”

The company’s donation will be made through the Kansas Livestock Association.��

�黨��ý employs more than 5,800 team members in seven locations in the state of Kansas, and partners with more than 300 independent cattle producers in the state to purchase approximately $2 billion of cattle every year.

“This significant donation from Tyson is greatly appreciated,” said KLA Chief Executive Officer, Matt Teagarden. “Their support, along with that of other generous donors from across the country, will go a long way in helping Kansas livestock producers impacted by the fires and severe weather rebuild.”

KLA and the Kansas Livestock Foundation are accepting donations to support farmers and ranchers impacted by the fire. The Foundation is working to identify a committee of livestock producers who will assess needs and oversee distribution of funds raised.

Last week’s fires burned an estimated 400,000 acres across four counties, a region that is home to several cattle suppliers for �黨��ý. Tyson’s operations have not been impacted by the fires.
