If packers are colluding on prices, they are not very good at it. Been a bad run of sustained losses while ranchers and feeders have been profitable. Beef sector remains an outlier compared to other ag sectors.

I spoke with President Trump and Secretary Rollins today about the concerns I’ve heard from hundreds of South Dakota ranchers over the last two days regarding importing additional Argentinian beef. We agree that we need an America First game plan that prioritizes American ranchers. After today’s meeting, I am encouraged by the desire of President Trump and Secretary Rollins to do right by the American producer. I encourage patience as we await final details to be released, and in the meantime, continue to share your opinions with the administration.
At a White House meeting today, I had the opportunity to share with the President our concern specifically on this issue. I suggested that energy prices across the country are down not because we imported additional energy from other countries, but because we started producing more energy right here in the United States. The same rule should apply for American beef. We must place an emphasis on creating better conditions for American farmers and ranchers to drive prices down by increasing their ability to supply more product.
American cattle producers have been at a disadvantage for far too long. Opening the market to even more foreign beef, which American consumers cannot differentiate because of current labeling rules, would only exacerbate the problem and hurt domestic producers. Our producers will compete all day long, but only if there is a level playing field.
As I have said repeatedly, consumers should drive demand and the market should be able to work on its own. Unfortunately, the policy of Mandatory Country of Origin Labeling (MCOOL), a commonsense policy that empowers consumers to choose, continues to sit on the shelf. The Packers and Stockyards Act continues to be ignored, as four companies, two of which are Brazilian-owned, monopolize the beef processing market. This issue cannot be resolved by displacing American beef with foreign beef. It will only be resolved when consumers are able to differentiate where their product is coming from.
I might sound like a broken record, but there are only nine states where cattle outnumber people. We make up only 18 of the 100 U.S. Senators. The government shutdown has clearly illustrated the need for support from 60 members to pass any meaningful reforms in the U.S. Senate. That means if we want to accomplish any long-term solutions for the cattle market, we need to broaden our base and shift our message to focus on the benefits that policies like MCOOL would have on American consumers. We can do this with strong support from the Trump administration.

@amandaaa_fuller Will you give your opinion? Or just ask the question?

It’s 1985, and you live in California. Wife, 2 kids, 3 car garage and a good paying job
You put your aging dad, a Western KS farmer, in the home. Uninterested in dealing with tenants, you notice an exciting new provision in the latest Food Securities Act. A program called CRP

The thing about living in Columbus is that I’m always loosely aware I’m living on the edge of the frontier. Once you get west of highway 81, there aren’t many people until you get to the Front Range. What’s your theory on why there are so few people between the blue lines?

@Dale_Kinser Gotta slide. At some point, they won’t let him back I would think.

@NoahTaylor76 @trdraaron Agree. I think that’s being left out of the argument here. Pretty good annual dividend if you’re the renter.
