Cattle herd falls to 75-year low
Retail beef prices reach record levels as drought and wildfires contract US cattle supplies.
A 300,000-metric-ton lower-tariff beef trimming expansion collides with new executive moves on meat processing and country-of-origin labelling. Supply chain leaders face record prices, a 75-year-low cattle herd, and producer opposition.
DOJ's beef price probe now reaches eight major grocery chains, adding compliance pressure to an already strained beef supply chain. The probe highlights structural shortages: record-low cattle inventory from drought limits supply even as consumer demand persists.
The new tariffs hit sugar, steel, machinery, and textiles, forcing U.S. importers to seek alternative suppliers. However, exemptions for beef, coffee, and aircraft parts provide relief for select industries. The move tests global procurement strategies.
The U.S. imposed a sweeping 25% tariff on thousands of Brazilian imports, effective July 22. While key commodities like coffee and beef escape levies, supply chain managers must navigate higher costs for steel, machinery, and sugar, and prepare for potential Brazilian retaliation that could disrupt backhauls and sourcing.
The 25% U.S. tariff on Brazil spares coffee, beef, orange juice, and aerospace parts, shielding critical supply chains from immediate disruption. But logistics and procurement leaders must brace for potential retaliatory measures and adjust sourcing for non-exempt goods like sugar, ethanol, and steel.
