Summary
The President’s beef plan sparks backlash: letting ranchers sell their own meat clashes with importing 300,000 tons of cheaper ground beef—mostly from Brazil and Argentina. Rancher Jake Parnell calls it a betrayal, arguing the move undermines domestic producers while ignoring broader affordability issues. Economists say imports may barely dent prices, and small slaughterhouses can’t handle the load. With cattle supplies low and costs high, ranchers are cash-flowing but not yet ready to rebuild herds—raising fears this is just the start of deeper policy shifts.
