why do cattle ranchers deliberately keep herd sizes small to drive up prices?
>>541281663I don't care. I only eat Wagyu. American beef is goyslop. I wouldn't eat it if you gave it to me.
>>541281663thats antisemetic, definitely dont look up the majority ethnicity of these cattlemen
>>541281663Jews are trying to get rid of cattle because they allegedly fart ot and are therefore dangerous to the environment
>>541281663The keep herd sizes small when range is poor and hay is expensive. The West has had an extended drought and the last two years were really bad in most places. Ranchers can't afford to feed their animals, so they sell them en mass to be slaughtered. This temporarily helps beef prices come down, but the price increases drastically in subsequent years because supply drops.
>>541281663satanic farmers whi have poisoned you for decades with seedoiks, soi and other slop are seething. the faggots are scared lol
>>541281783>only eat WagyuWhy lie?
>>541281663ongoing drought driving up feed costsgovernment regulations making herd management more expensivewhile government approved meat processing cartels are colluding to lower amount paid to ranchers
>>541281663Last i looked up on this alot of verticle integration happenend in butchery/packing and they leverage that to capture most of the value in the supply chain.
>>541281663I have no opinion either way but ground beef being $8 a lb and steaks being expensive is nuts even in today’s hyper inflated market. What if the herd doesn’t rebound? This is what the WEF and climate alarmists desired so it’s awfully cohencidental that there is a cattle shortage right out schedule
>>541282894I only eat waygu cause I raise waygu.
>>541281663Processing plants becoming an effective monopoly is a greater concern. Who owns Tyson?

>>541281783>meat:-/>meat Japan:-OOOOO
>>541284258>Who owns Tyson?Anybody who can scrape together $58 and figure out how to install Robin Hood app on their phone. Not a big barrier of entry to get in on the gravy train if you feel there is some kind of infinite free money glitch happening there.
>>541281663Retarded republican sena-nigger. You can't just increase a cattle herd overnight.
>>541281663>imported beef below market prices>Advised the President (government intervention)>let the market workFucking hypocrite
>We need foreign labor, Americans are too expensive!>Oy vey we can't compete with foreign beef! Its annudah shoa! Communists were right about farmers.
>>541281663>Our cattle herd is too smallWhy is it too small retard? Why are companies downsizing their herd? Maybe something to do with you blowing up Russia and spiking fertiliser prices.
>>541282071We need more farm and ranch coverage to help explain some market pricing. Sometime I wonder if people just see red shaped slabs of bloody flesh and think," which magically appearing soft tissue cube looks good today? Perhaps a soft tissue slab? Or ground soft tissue? WHOAH LOOK AT THAT PRICE! I thought the shelled yellow/ white embryo goop was expensive!"
>>541281663>why do cattle ranchers deliberately keep herd sizes smallBecause they import cattle for cheaper and legally brand them as their ownIf they can't import then they are left with very small numbers, usually niche cattle like premium stuff or low-enough quality for their local marketplaces
Strange, that every country seems to be driving down local productions lately. Both left and right are working hard to crush local agriculture and farm industry.
>>541281663I don't give a fuck about our cattle ranchers. I'm not eating the bugs because a bunch of zionist welfare queens want to fuck around and not overbreed in anticipation of supply shocks. It's not like the fucking cows spoil when you don't slaughter them within a year
>>541282071Fuck off. It's greed to inflate prices. Ranchers are fucking rich as fuck, and I'm done with you retards pretending otherwise because they live in red states. You're making the whole country suffer by taking away staple meat, and you deserve shit for it including new competition. You made to choice to stop doing your job, so fuck you!
>>541283080>ongoing drought driving up feed costsPROPAGANDA. They were doing this before the drought you gaslighting liar.
>>541281663>We need to just let $15 /pound hamburger be a thing foreverKys
>>541281663in oregon at least the lesbo governor appointed her former lesbo roomate/girlfriend/scissorpiece with a botany degree to be in charge of wildlife management and throught it would be a good idea to reintroduce wolves into the wild and not tell anyone, and so a lot of the ranchers lost a bunch of head because they were operating under the assumption that the government solved the wolf problem 150 years ago when the state was first chartered
Why exactly do we need to support our ranchers? Why am I supposed to upset that imported beef is going to be cheaper? I would like to eat, I don't give a shit if they're getting undercut.
>>541281663Kill yourself
>>541281663Tom Cotton? zionist stooge, he will be gone in a few months, im more interested to hear what 6th generation farmer and future queen of Arkansas Hallie Shoffner has to say on the matter...
>>541287267post nose
>>541281901>if we kill the cows their farts won't change the weatherThe environmental wackos are truly mentally ill
>>541281663>Farmers be like "Fuck you pay me or I will starve you"Stalin was right about kulaks
>>541286445Why don't we encourage hunters to thin out the deer population instead of wolves?
>>541281663We have the same prices it's a big scam.The drought is officially over as El Nino is going to piss rain from end of August into April next year. They sell using the global export prices not the national prices. Pure Judaism >here is taxpayer subsidies for your ranch>thanks but I'll be selling at global prices like this is gold >okay then fuck you we are importing cheaper Australian beef>nooo you can't do that
>>541287798because then they will go for the cows.wolves are not dogs. they are apex predators that hunt with nigger tactics and will fuck your shit up. the only responsible thing is to put them (back) down.this happened like 20 years ago in russia. wolves were killing livestock, young children waiting for the school bus, and the occasional drunk. the only fix is agressive termination
>>541281663Is this the latest migger cope about why eating bush meat is actually a good thing?
how does importing beef prevent them from breeding more cows
>>541288220Every other nation subsidizes their domestic agriculture sector instead of actively trying to destroy it like the US does
>>541288284Doesn't help here we subsidize but they increased the price 60% and climbing anyway
>>541288284>Every other nation subsidizes their domestic agriculture sector instead of actively trying to destroy it like the US doesyou're on drugs if you don't think US agriculture is subsidized, lol, Republicans no longer believe in punishing business owner incompetence, the cognitive dissonance is insane
>>541288410yet you still havent boogalooed
>>541288423you are retarded. go back to r*ddit.
>>541288284We subsidize the ever loving piss out of select crops especially corn. What the fuck are you talking about? We haven't had a free market for food prices in almost a century. Milk prices were too cheap in the 1930s so they started dumping it and pouring it out.
>>541288423>you don't think US agriculture is subsidized, lolYes the Republicans are absolutely subsidizing farmers. Argentinian ones not American
>>541281663you answered your own question
10 DOLLAR DOLLAR MONEY THERE GIMME A 20 20 DOLLAR THERE 20! DOLLAR DOLLAR THERE CAN I GET A 30 30 DOLLAR DOLLAR MONEY THERE?
I like beef as much as the next guy, but maybe we need to start considering less resource intense meat sources?
>>541288525>in the 1930sDamn had to go all the way back to the New Deal lol
>>541288514>you are retarded. go back to r*ddit.great argument faggot, if people listened to Trump instead of retards like Cotton, you wouldn't be losing the next election, people can't afford meat, and its the fautl of faggots like you that act like rich farmers are Grapes of Wrath dustbowl farmers and can make any idiotic decisiont hey want even if the entire country suffers, want to be a business, actually compete retards
>>541288649thats when it all started. the government guaranteed farmers they would buy *ANY AND ALL* excess crops, which incentivized overproduction, and in the absence of modern refrigeration, is why most was just dumped out.its also why you got the little red boxes of raisins with your school lunch, and why every restaurant has extra cheese on everything, and came up with shit like cheeze stuffed crust pizza to use even more cheese
>>541288649The new deal is when massive government involvement in the production of food started.
>>541288772>youyou seem to be lost. cotton voters are back where you came from on r*ddit
>>541282071>teaching goyim basic economics
>>541281783Good for you. Want a cookie you sanctimonious cunt?
>>541289000>republicans on reddit>from a person actually arguing on Cotton's behalf in fucking 4chanyeah you're the tourist retad, you think voters are going to happy with $10 a pound hamburger because some multi-millionaire rancher that has Mexicans doing is work for him will have less gold bars in his Scrooge McDudk vault? fuck off, nigger
>>541281663HAMBERDERS ARE VERY IMPORTANT FOR AMERICAIN AMERICA YOU DONT MESS WITH THE BURGERS
>>541281663>support our cattlemen>let the market workPick one
>>541289323unironically true, Republicans keep stepping on rakes, add this to being anti-porn and anti-weed and everything else
>>541281663reduce the chance of diseases spreading through more live stockyou're pretty stupid...
>>541281663>why do cattle ranchers deliberately keep herd sizes small to drive up prices?Who says they are doing that?
>>541290090>Who says they are doing that?reality? are you stupid?
>>541289437Like screwworm? Something that hadn't been a problem in the US for decades until Trump decided efforts to prevent its spread were woke and cut the funding... Such that now its infesting herds in Texas?
>>541281663It's not the cattlemen or even the grocers. It's the meat packing middlemen that are basically running a cartel.
>>541291052They blame Biden and illegals for the screwworm, whom I’m sure they’ll blame for the drought as well like they were stealing our clouds or something
>>541281663>why do cattle ranchers deliberately keep herd sizes small to drive up prices?Let's see, off the top of my head>epic drought in western us>Biden limits on herd size on grazing allotments - your 2000 head allotment is now 200 head>still unsolved rash of arsons on processing facilities >herd sizes still recovering from effects of pandemic>now Trump proves he's a certified genius by flooding the US market with undercutting Argentinian beefIt's all so tiresome.
>dont raise grass fed only cattle>Think wagu is the best beefYou Americans are funny sometimes
>>541283812There is no Wagyu beef outside of Japan you retard.
>>541291680Do you honestly think that? It’s just a different breed of cow. Straws of semen are transported all over the world from their premier bulls.
>>541291610Grass fed is trash I wouldn’t feed my dog
>>541281663they can't afford more cattle
>>541286275feed lot owners are rich, cattle calf operators are often just making it.
>>541281663I see. So in addition to price gouging ranchers for no reason, politicians are also lying about cattle numbers too. For no reason.
