I hope we have a federal program to buy up this glut of meat and destroy it so we can continue to drive up the price of red meat and transition the people for a sustainable future eating bugs.
The need is way beyond pipeline scale.
We need to stop the geoengineering of weather, as well of course, as the intentional shutdown of our fossil fuel (including fertilizer) industry.
The country needs to wake up fast to enforce that, however.
As WEF doll Jane Goodall is on video saying, “If we just get the population down to where it was 500 years ago (5% of what it is today), all our problems will be solved.”
Check The Old Farmer’s Almanac online , LOL
Franken-meat..........................
Wait, just six months ago it was “this summer we will have unprecedented food shortages.”
So far, nada. Yes prices are up (as are all prices). There are occasional specialty varieties that aren’t as abundant. But this is becoming a fear-mongering mantra.
I know farmers can get crop insurance. Can cattle raisers (”ranchers” I suppose) get cattle insurance?
I have no idea.................
85/15 ground beef on sale at $1.98 a pound last weekend. We laid a bunch in. Vacuum seal and deep freeze.

It takes two years for a calf to reach maturity

If herds are severely reduced, it will take several years to recover.
Like ‘sex’, ‘bad news’ sells...........................
*it would also be a big problem if distributing it all across the ranch lands. A logistical and cost prohibitive nightmare*
Perhaps a pipeline to where the great rivers begin. Disbursement in place. Pipeline might have to start in Canada.
Ill stick with poultry, thankyouverymuch.

Cost of beef goes way up and people eat more chicken. That will go up too.
Next year a Ribeye will cost you $50.00
If you can find them.

Da be in the can like spam, vinnie wieners etc
I don’t know about ranching, so I’m making assumptions, but I think that even feeding rivers wont help much. I think that under normal conditions you rely on precipitation, not irrigation from rivers and ground water sources. Maybe someone here has first hand knowledge on the topic
Just a bunch of histrionics but no data.
The horror, the horror. The temperature will be 100! Did anyone bother to tell the writer that the average for this time of year is 96. I wish I had a nickel for every time the temperature got over 100 in a Texas summer.
***Everybody is talking about how they have never seen anything like this before, and if the drought in the Southwest persists the lines could soon get even longer.***
1952 was so dry our wheat did not even come up.
1957-1958 comes to mind when Dad sold our herds due to the drought. It has happened many times before.
It was hotter in 1936. Hottest temperature ever recorded here: 120 F, Ozark, northwest Arkansas, 8/10/1936.
“1936 North American Heat Wave,” Before there was Glo-Bull Warming to blame.
There were lots of heat waves before glo-Bull Warming.
In 1831 it was so hot all the water holes on the Santa Fe Trail went dry.
1834, Oklahoma was so hot the Comanche chiefs told George Catlin even the oldest warrior had never seen it so dry.
1901 Eastern US Heat wave killed 9500.
1911 US heat wave killed up to 3000 people.
1930-1939 super hot dust bowl years
1952 so dry it forced us off the High Plains. I never saw that country green until 2013.
So... frozen instead of fresh?
