Trump's Beef with Cattle Prices
Update: 2025-12-24
Description
Gary Vetter, a lifelong rancher and Trump supporter, now faces falling cattle prices due to Trumps policies. Trumps moves to quadruple low-tariff imports of beef from Argentina, probe meatpackers for price fixing, and lift duties on Brazilian beef have hit cattle markets hard. Ranchers, who mostly voted for Trump, feel the sting as the sharp selloff cuts their profits, scared off buyers, and made markets volatile. Despite high grocery prices, cattle prices have ticked up a bit but stay below pre-Trump comment levels. The administration keeps pushing a broad plan to cut regulations and boost small processors to help both farmers and shoppers.
