Members Urged To Contact Congressional Delegation To Oppose Increase In Foreign Beef Imports

This past Friday, President Donald Trump proposed increasing imports of foreign beef, including an additional 300,000 metric tons that would enter the U.S. market at prices well below current market levels. KLA and NCBA strongly oppose this proposal as it would undermine the market conditions that already are encouraging producers to rebuild the U.S. cowherd after years of drought, high input costs and other challenges that have reduced cattle numbers.
