CBBC Executive and Staff are participating in a mission to Russia with delegates from the federal and provincial governments. The purpose of the mission is to participate in the formal grand opening of the Livestock Consultative Centre in Orenburg, Russia, meet with representatives of government and industry and tour ranches. So far CBBC has attended the Golden Autumn Livestock Show in Moscow and toured Red Square. There are Russian cattle on display as well as American. It was noted that the food displays included very little beef and mostly pork and chicken. Next stop is Orenburg at which time further updates will be posted.
