The Oregon Cattlemen's Association (OCA) was formed in 1913 in Baker County by 12 individuals who sought to advance the economic, political and social interests of the Oregon Cattle Industry. As the voice of the cattle industry in Oregon, our mission is to: •Promote environmentally and socially sound industry practices; •Promote a positive, contemporary image of the industry •Improve and strengthen the economics of the industry; •Assure a strong political presence in all areas effecting the industry •Protect our industry communities and private property rights. OCA assists and represents ALL cattle producers through out the entire state on a daily basis on many issues. OCA is NOT a "one or two" issue organization (click here for current list). It is dedicated to deal with a multitude of issue simultaneously in order to allow producers - large & small -East & West - to produce. OCA can only do this with memberships and leadership. We pull together or we pull apart!
