The checkoff‐funded National Beef Quality
Assurance (BQA) program is giving all beef producers and interested individuals
the chance to become certified for free thanks to a partnership with Boehringer
Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc. and the Beef Cattle Institute (BCI) housed at Kansas
State University. The cost of BQA certification is normally $25‐$50; however, between Feb.
11, 2013 and March 15, 2013, Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc. will defray
the cost of the certification, making it free for producers. Those
interested in taking advantage of this BQA certification opportunity
should start at www.BIVI‐BQA.com.
Idaho producers that obtain
BQA Certification via this method will be certified in Idaho and receive
verification from Idaho BQA.
