I agree with the sustainability idea but wonder if the industry structure is against us...
Beef is a commodity - lots of production most of the time...
Concentration at the packer.....lots of power at purchasing time.
Concentration at the retailer....we can advertise a chicken special if beef gets too expensive...they like to sell cheap food...farmer be damned.
How do we get some control back to the producer in this screwy market?
