The head of the US Meat Export Federation says global demand for US red meat remains strong, but there are challenges ahead.
President and CEO Dan Halstrom says the US is still struggling on variety meat capture rates at some of the plants and they’re still struggling some specifications that require additional labor for the export market.
He says there are also logistical concerns as it relates to the ports. “Especially as it relates to the West Coast ports,” he says.
