Beef prices have been ridiculously high for the las couple of years, they’re going to have to drop sometime.

Yep.

Farmers are in business to make money, and won’t bypass an opportunity.

Besides, I’m not sure food prices have done anything except reflect the falling value of the dollar.

Depends on the big packers honestly.

I know quite a few beef farmers. They are not getting the premium that is being charged in the grocery stores.

There is a reason I buy my beef from farmers I know.
