World Without Cows will be screening at this year’s NCBA CattleCon

Cattle producers from across the country are gearing up for NCBA’s CattleCon in San Antonio next month.
They will have the opportunity to attend a screening of World Without Cows, a documentary exploring the impact of cattle on the economy, land, and nutrition.

Filmmakers Michelle Michael and Brandon Whitworth spoke with RFD-TV’s own Tammi Arender on what inspired this documentary, the people they interviewed, and what they hope the audience will take away from the film.
