New Idaho beef plant adds local option for producers
May 6, 2018 /
A beef plant that opened in southern Idaho earlier this year gives the area’s dairy producers a local option on where to send their cows. Dairy producers had to typically ship their cows to out-of-state plants as Idaho had lacked large commercial slaughter and packing facilities.
The Ida-Beef facility in Burley harvests more than 100 cows per day, but it’s designed to eventually process 350 to 400 cows each day, The Times-News reported May 3.
CS Beef Packers opened a larger plant in Kuna last year to serve both the dairy and beef industries. Then in January, the Burley facility opened.
