Due to bad weather in the midwest last year a lot of people lost their herd due to lack of feed.

There is that much less beef around which is the explanation of the imports.

Expect beef prices to soar again!

Not that i care since i am a beef farmer myself. 🤗i raise black angus. Small-scale of course.

Sorry about that . Years of drought and shrinking grazing lands has brought the US cattle herd down to its lowest levels in decades

Young people are eating far less beef than those over fifty. For both health reasons and environmental concerns.

Health reasons! That's a new one.

Young people know little about health issues.

Yeah and more people really have no idea where their meat comes from these days.

They go to the store and it is there . Behind the scenes are hard working ranchers who work 7 days a week .

Yes indeed and they sure do work hard. I’m thankful for that.

I have eaten lots and lots of beef since I first got enough teeth to do so. I get plenty of exercise and my health is very good. The reason they have spread the lies about beef is because it can’t be mass produced like chicken and pork. There’s no way to push out the little guys. Except for the rare set of twins you get one calf per cow per year. They require a good amount of land and are very labor intensive. The lies are strictly for control of the population.
