Smithfiled in SD is not the only plant closing. There are also plants in Colorado, Iowa, Nebraska & Pennsylvania closed. These are suppose to be temporary but they could re-open only to have to close again. You never know.

We could have beef, pork, poultry, fish shortages.
I already stocked our freezer I could see this coming.
