Inside ACMA

摘要

Brad MacCallum is the new go-to guy for cattle, pork, and sheep producers. MacCallum, fresh on the job as the executive director of the Agri-Commodity Management Association (ACMA), was still in the process of unpacking when Atlantic Beef paid him a visit at his Truro, N.S., office. A shelf was stocked full of fat, empty binders. Beside him there were boxes stacked one on top of the other. Seated at a simple desk dominated by a large flat-screen monitor, over the course of about half an hour MacCallum described the role he sees himself playing as the point man for ACMA's three member commodity groups: the Nova Scotia Cattle Producers (NSCP), Pork Nova Scotia (PNS), and the Sheep Producers Association of Nova Scotia (SPANS).
