National Cattlemen's Association (U.S.)

Hide Profile

The American National Cattlemens Association was organized in Denver, Colorado, on Jan. 25, 1898. It was originally called the National Live Stock Growers Association and included horse and other livestock breeders. The new organization changed its name to the National Live Stock Association in 1900. In 1905, a group of cattle and sheep growers broke away to form the American Stock Growers Association, but rejoined its parent organization to form the American National Stock Growers Association in 1906. In 1953, the organization changed its name to the American National Cattlemen's Association (ANCA) to reflect a membership almost exclusively of cattlemen. ANCA merged with the National Livestock Feeders Association to form the National Cattlemen's Association in 1977.
