At least Mexican beef is good for something, the uneducated beef buyer.

You must not buy the beef. US beef is twice as much as Mexican beef at the grocery store. Prime CAB ribeyes were $18.50 lb with the purchase of 10+ lbs last week at our meat market.

Imports down, exports up.
Never let facts blur mindless hysteria.
No one said it had no input. But you implied it was the primary factor in the price drop, which is absolutely incorrect.True Grit Farms":18c09v9i said:TennesseeTuxedo":18c09v9i said:"The United States exported 2.55 billion pounds of beef in 2016, up 12.56% from 2015."

You have me on the ropes like always. So with US beef exports up 12.5 percent and the price falling at the grocery stores, Mexican beef has no input on the US market? I'm trying to figure out what point your wanting to debate.
I didn't go to Harvard, just the school of hard knocks.

And that the primary import threat is Mexico which is also a dubious claim. Bottom line, we all need someone to blame when things go wrong (translation - go our way). Blaming is counterproductive in every facet of life. Don't need a Harvard degree for that. That info comes from the school of hard knocks.

Alright then, why is the beef price dropping when the US is exporting more beef?

I'm seeing price improvements at the sales I track. I'd say prices are normalizing after the anomaly of higher prices on the hoof we saw in 2014-2015. We all knew those prices were unsustainable.

I'd like to see the prices hold about where there at now, it's good for everyone. If fuel and fertilizer stay close to the same price a good cattlemen can make money.
