Pork is still cheap.
But Beef and Chicken are too expensive. We ought to be working on more production to lower the costs.

could you elaborate on that? Is pork production growth not as constrained as beef or chicken?

in my simple mind...it would “seem” that growth of chicken production would be less capital intensive than either beef or pork....also less time to maturity, far less space, etc. (at least animal per animal, maybe not calorie per calorie)

what are the factors which are currently constraining beef production growth?

“We ought to be working on more production to lower the costs.”

If only that had occurred to the market. Trust the “invisible hand.”
