WELCOME TO THE HAWAII CATTLEMEN’S COUNCIL

The Hawaii Cattlemen’s Council, Inc. (HCC) is the Statewide umbrella organization comprised of the five county level Cattlemen’s Associations. Our 110+ member ranchers represent over 60,000 head of beef cows; more than 75% of all the beef cows in the State. Ranchers are the stewards of over 1 Million acres of land in Hawaii, or 25% of the State’s total land mass. HCC is also unified with the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA), so its members are represented on a County level, State-wide level and National level.
