Jaclyn breaks down the economics, potential implementation challenges, imported beef and lean trim, consumer demand, voluntary Product of USA labeling, and the unanswered questions surrounding who pays for a mandatory program. Rather than telling producers what to think, Lauren and Jaclyn challenge listeners to look beyond social media headlines, ask harder questions, examine the numbers, and form their own opinions about an issue that could have major implications for the entire beef industry.
