2003's gatekeeper: idaho's Eric Davis leads the way as NCBA's 2003 president

摘要

They say you can't judge a book by its cover. Eric Davis of Bruneau, ID, who becomes president of the National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) this month, is such a case in point. Davis is a cattleman - he's always been a cattleman, he'll alwaysbe a cattleman. He's also tends to be quiet, unassuming and, at times, comically self-deprecating. He's a man with whom just about anyone in the cattle business can identify. But don't let this Bruneau, ID, rancher and cattle feeder's easy-going exteriorfool you into thinking he's not a scrapper. All you have to do is take a look at the geographic environment of which he's definitely a product to know he's tough and persevering - with roots set solid in the cattle business.
