The U.S. is already importing beef at record levels. This decision would be an unprecedented move and would translate to nearly an additional 60% increase in imports over the next 90 days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"voa-body-copy\">\u201cFor almost a year now, we\u2019ve been advising the administration that America\u2019s ranchers are working to rebuild beef herds that had to be sold off due to drought. Despite high beef prices in grocery stores, prices paid to farmers and ranchers for their cattle have fallen sharply over the past two months, and beef packing plants are shutting down across the U.S. Further undercutting a fragile recovery by swamping markets with foreign products and attempting to manipulate prices threatens to wipe out any progress that has been made.<\/p>\n<p class=\"voa-body-copy\">\u201cWe appreciate the president\u2019s goal of reducing grocery costs, but short-term measures could have long-term negative effects for consumers and for ranchers who are making decisions on whether to retain or expand their herd. Growing dependence on foreign-grown food could ultimately lead to even higher grocery costs and reliance on other nations for our food security. We urge the president to strongly reconsider his plan.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall commented today on President Trump\u2019s plan to import an additional 300,000 metric tons of beef in addition to already record-high beef imports. \u201cFarmers and ranchers are extremely disappointed to learn that President Trump plans to flood the American market with hundreds of millions of pounds of foreign-raised beef.
