🚨 No one is talking about this. In 1975, America had over 130 million cattle. Today, we’re closer to 86 million. That’s the smallest cattle herd in decades. Meanwhile… There are 100+ million more people in this country than there were in 1975. More mouths. WAY fewer cows. And by the way… Americans still love burgers, steaks, brisket, tacos, and BBQ. Demand didn’t disappear. The herd did. This isn’t just a cattle market. It’s a supply problem grazing across millions of acres. Until the cow herd rebuilds, beef isn’t getting cheap. It can’t. More people. Fewer cows. Higher prices. Share this with someone who thinks beef prices are going back to 2019. 🐄 Buy The Cow. 🥩📈

I agree our herd should be larger, and beef should be a bigger part of the diet. What I’d be curious to know, is how much foreign beef was in our stores in 1975? Consolidated processing is a whole separate issue.
