The US food supply chain is losing thousands of cattle as the global famine plan picks up speed.
- last year
Do you find it odd that each week, tens of thousands of cattle heads just disappear from our food supply chains? Americans are being warned by ranchers that a meat recession is imminent as our herd of beef cattle continues to drastically decline. Numerous animal herds were destroyed this summer as a result of a significant sell-off, but the mass slaughter has continued into the fall and is now at an all-time high. Farmers are now warning us that it will take years for stocks to return to normal levels, so we must prepare to pay significantly higher costs for meat going forward.

Farmers and ranchers are currently dealing with some of the most difficult conditions for livestock raising in more than ten years, and they are informing us that it will take some time to rebuild our country's cattle production.

The cow herd has decreased as a result of droughts, according to Good Ranchers. "Our anticipated annual total meat supply has been drastically reduced.

This meant that the daily cattle slaughter was in the 126,000- to 128,000-head range.
The situation has significantly worsened throughout the summer. An extraordinary selloff began as a result of the shortage of water, with drought hurting the vast majority of U.S. farms and notably Texas ranchers...
