About Us...
Since its inception almost twenty five years ago, the NBA, has grown from strength to strength, and today, it remains the only dedicated voice for British Beef Farmers.
At all times, our mission is to continually promote and support the UK beef industry at all levels. This we do by engaging with the Government and Devolved Administrations to defend the interest of beef farmers across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
We meet regularly as a Board, as do our four specialist committees - TB Committee, Pedigree Committee, Policy Committee, and, the recently formed Animal Health Committee. Each geographical area of the country is also represented at a regional level through the eight dedicated forums which hold regular meetings and events which are open to all members.
The beef industry has, and will continue to face many challenges, and through the revenue generated from members we can ensure that we continue to represent their views and concerns in Government. In addition we can help direct the course of future regulation, offer advice, overturn bad regulation and improve existing legislation.

We keep our ear to the ground to ensure that we are up to date with key issues which the beef industry is facing on a daily basis.
We secure our information from all of the devolved governments including AHDB, DEFRA, LMC, QMS, HCC and other representative bodies who all have an interest in keeping the British Beef Industry at the forefront of the world's economy.

A whole side of beef offers some many different cuts suitable for a wide range of different cooking methods, British and international recipes and seasonal treats.
When choosing your beef from either your local butchers, or supermarket butchers, it is always worthwhile having a chat to them about the cut of beef most suitable for use in the recipe you are going to cook.
Butchers are professionals, so don't be frightened to ask your butcher cut a joint to your own individual requirements. They will be more than happy to advise on cuts and cooking. The tender cuts of meat, fillet and rib are most suited to frying, quick roasting or grilling, the less tender cuts e.g. neck and shin are most suited to slow cooking, braising and stewing.
