Ranchers warn immigration crackdown could push beef prices higher
Original: Ranchers warn immigration crackdown could send beef prices even higher
American ranchers are warning that a tightened immigration crackdown could drive beef prices even higher, on top of already elevated costs at the grocery store. The industry relies heavily on immigrant labor for processing and herding, and producers say labor shortages would shrink supply and raise costs. The warning adds to consumer concerns about food inflation in the United States.
Why now: Beef prices are already high and consumers and producers are worried immigration policy will tighten labor supply further.
