Read original story ↗At his November 1 rally in Salina, Kansas, Trump asked ranchers to produce more beef and said prices were coming down. His remarks followed industry opposition to his beef-import policy. The speech confirms his request to increase output; it does not establish that ranchers caused falling cattle prices. Prices paid for cattle and prices shoppers pay for beef are different measures.
