U.S. beef exports closed the third quarter on a positive note, with September volume increasing slightly from a year ago and value climbing 8%, according to USDA.
“Beef exports were once again encouraging in September, as global customers continue to show a powerful and loyal appetite for U.S. beef,” said U.S. Meat Export Federation (USMEF) President and CEO Dan Halstrom. “While consumers everywhere are feeling the pinch of higher household expenses, they still prioritize high-quality protein in their daily diet.”
