Mindy Campfield is the Executive Director of the Iowa Beef Breeds Council. The council puts on the Iowa Beef Expo every year. Campfield tells us about the busy schedule they have for this week.

Campfield says this isn?t about highlighting one breed over the other. There are eleven different breeds having sales at the event.

This is the event?s 43rd year. Campfield says the event has been often imitated but never duplicated.
