Wyoming K-Stater joins CAB team for summer

By Steve Suther

Hannah Johlman joined the Certified Angus Beef ® (CAB®) Industry Information team in May 2016 as a summer intern, writing features, news releases, columns and blogs on all who aim for the brand, from rancher to consumer. She began the summer term with a story tour of ranches and feedlots in Kansas and Colorado.

The Kansas State University (K-State) senior in ag communications and journalism as well as animal sciences and industry works from her home base in Sheridan, Wyo., with the CAB team of journalists in Kansas, Nebraska and Florida.

Johlman credits her passion for the agriculture and cattle community to her grandfather and uncle, who attended K-State veterinary school. As an active 4-H member, she saw the need for industry advocacy and after working on ranches in Nevada, Montana and Wyoming, Johlman’s choice to be that advocate led her also to K-State.

There, she’s a member of Agricultural Communicators of Tomorrow and Block & Bridle, and has interned at the Kansas Department of Agriculture.

CAB was founded in 1978 and is based in Wooster, Ohio, where Johlman attended a young leaders’ seminar last winter. She learned about the brand’s mission of adding value to Angus cattle by providing consumers with a great eating experience.

The first and largest premium beef brand, CAB stimulates demand that incentivizes producers to raise the highest quality beef – some 2.5 million pounds sold each day around the world.

Not From Your Pocket

Not From Your Pocket

When Angus ranchers ask how CAB is funded, the answer isn’t dollars out of their pocket. No portion of American Angus Association® membership dues or fees for cattle registrations or transfers goes toward the brand’s budget. As a not-for-profit company, our revenue is generated through packer commissions.

Protecting Brand Integrity

Protecting Brand Integrity

Protecting the brand’s integrity has been a core pillar since 1978. Integrity is so foundational that the brand was built around the premise: with integrity, nothing else matters, and without it, nothing else matters.
