Another Trump trade winner..

Trumps deal with Australia has allowed access for American beef to the Australian market for the first time. I wont go into the details. But US "Standards" have more holes than my underwear, including shipping cattle untested from Mexico and blending them into US herds.. But a deals a deal, although personally I wouldnt feed American beef to my tamed magpies.. But that was last weeks news..
Today, all major Australian supermarket chains made a joint announcement that they will NOT stock any US beef.. Sometimes the market gets it right..😷

It’s same with milk and dairy products. That’s why some countries don’t want it.

@Nick1 I did hear Canada just rejected a lot of American milk...And Dairy farmers are already doing it tough...😷

@whowasthatmaskedman They use drugs on their animals down there to boost production, and don't care about animal welfare. Milk from US is not as safe or clean as Canadian milk. I personally would not buy it even if it was up here.

@JamesBugman I did read up on that. Apparently the rejected production is being put back into the domestic market, driving prices down further with oversupply. Another nightmare for the farmers..😷
