Quick Summary

US President Donald Trump plans to sign executive orders allowing cattle ranchers to protect their herds from gray wolves and making it easier for them to sell and process their own beef. The measures are intended to address record-high retail beef prices, which have been driven by a historically low cattle supply due in part to drought and wildfires. The move is also expected to benefit domestic producers through mandatory country-of-origin labelling for imported beef, a provision that was repealed in 2015 after the World Trade Organization ruled in favor of Canada and Mexico. Trump's actions are seen as an effort to address rising costs, which have become a top concern for voters ahead of the November midterm elections.

Story summary

U.S. President Donald Trump plans to sign executive orders aimed at easing high beef prices, which have hit record highs this year due in part to a historically low cattle supply constrained by drought and wildfires. The orders will allow cattle ranchers to protect their herds against gray wolves, as well as make it easier for them to sell food they've processed themselves, currently restricted under federal food safety laws. Additionally, Trump will take steps to require country-of-origin labelling for imported beef, a move that some ranchers have long sought in order to support domestic producers and provide more transparency to consumers. The dispute over beef labelling spans decades, dating back to 2009 when the U.S. required retailers to mark food with origin labels, but was challenged by Canada and Mexico who argued it disadvantaged their cattle and pigs.
