Prices are going up due to drought,  price of grain and high interest rates.   Ranchers have thinned herds and it will take years,  when they start replenishing them, for prices to stabilize and meet demand.

No problem for me ...have not eaten any meat other than occasional chicken for 15 years. 

Sorry for farmers. Climate change affecting everything around the workd.

I eat beef every single day. This is terrible news.

I could live without meat with no problem, my husband wouldn't enjoy it though.  We could make do with salmon and chicken if we had to, or lamb.  I also feel for the farmers.

I won't give up beef.  I can make adjustments like using ground beef more often and trimming elsewhere in my grocery purchases, if needed.

We won't give it up either. We only eat chicken and beef. Neither of us like pork (unless it's baby back ribs) or fish. We'll adjust.

@JeanLouiseFinch.  The only beef I buy is ground, usually for casseroles and it was almost $7/lb for very lean.  That's riduculous.

I can't even remember the last time I ate beef so rising beef prices has zero impact on my grocery bill.

I buy grassfed in 1 pound packages.  I get it for around $5, unless it goes on sale for $4.  I have a big freezer so I'll stock up and share with family.  Waygu beef is usually expensive but it's $5 this week so I may pick up a few packages.

i made a double pot roast last night for 8 people it was over six pounds of meat and included carrots, onions, celery, and potatoes. it was roughly $6.50 a pound from sams club.

i have to say it was DELICIOUS and there was plenty for everyone to have leftovers.

not going to give up meat.
