[QUOTE="BC, post: 1662240, member: 67"] Lee VanRoss, importers also pay the checkoff. I think it is based on carcass equivalent. If you read the Beef Promotion Act that authorized the checkoff it says to promote beef. Most of what is imported is lean trim to mix with the fat trim off our grain fed carcasses. Ask your spouse which hamburger blend (lean to fat) they buy - 73/27, 80/20. 85/15 or 92/8. We do not produce enough of the lean trim in this country to satisfy the demand for the leaner hamburger that our American consumer is demanding. [/QUOTE]
