Why are Australian consumers, who have access to their own hormone free beef going to choose hormone loaded beef from the US that has been flown half way round the world?

Some insight for you Mr Trump, we are not fans of America, and you are a big contribution to this.
Do you really think Australian's will buy U.S beef at the supermarket instead of our own?
We have more than enough of our own livestock to feed ourselves, and we buy off our own farmers first.
You personally, are making us and the rest of the world despise America.
A decade from now you will probably be dead from a heart attack or something else, but the damage you are creating will affect Americans for generations to come. And it all stems from the U.S not being able to pay their debt and you trying to get the rest of the world to pay it for you.
Just like you have screwed countless investors over to make your billions, you are now adopting the same approach to the rest of the world.
Good luck making America great again mate!

US food is full of grow hormones/chemicals and other harmful shit.

Mc Donalds had to change their products content to be allowed to sell their unhealthy stuff in the EU.

Not thank you Trump.

Its all yours. Enjoy it.

Hahahaha.. Safest and Best.. Hes delusional.. Its full of Mad Cow.. We wont touch that shit
Total LIE

Mad Cow happens in Europe & UK NOT in USA (since 2018)

Mad cow disease, also known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), is extremely rare.
Prevalence in Cattle:
Globally, there have been fewer than 200,000 cases of BSE in cattle since the disease was first identified in 1986.
The majority of cases occurred in the United Kingdom.
In the United States, there have been only a few dozen cases.
Prevalence in Humans:
BSE in cattle can transmit to humans as variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD).
vCJD is also rare, with an average of fewer than 10 cases per year worldwide.
Most cases of vCJD are sporadic (meaning they occur without a known cause), but some can be linked to consuming contaminated beef.
Current Status:
Due to strict surveillance and control measures, BSE is now extremely rare in cattle worldwide.
The risk of contracting vCJD from consuming beef is very low.
There have been no new cases of BSE in the United States since 2018.

You are delusion sir.

Ohhh yummy
Mate, we've got the best and cleanest beef in the world, I don't need your beef.
Even reading the reports from the veterinarians and advisors in Australia that influenced the decisions, it's clear that while Beef tracing in America has improved, this decision has been sped up and influenced by the need to maintain trade relations.
Thinking about it, I guess I am confident our biosecurity won't be compromised, since we take that stuff extremely seriously over here..
Even before the Mad Cow Disease, We hardly bought any beef from you guys anyway (most we've ever bought from America is 210 tonnes in a year), compared to nearly 400,000 tonnes we sold to you guys last year, so the chances your yummy beef will pass my lips is extremely low anyway.

For digital services and AI, USA having top tier products. For food however... I'm pretty sure folks in Europe, Australia and Japan (for rice) prefer their own food production and won't touch USA products.
And in Canada with dairy products.

AI Overview
Canadian dairy products are often perceived as superior to US dairy products due to Canada's strict regulations regarding the use of artificial growth hormones and higher standards for milk quality. Specifically, Canada prohibits the use of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rBST), a synthetic growth hormone, in dairy production, while the US allows its use. Additionally, Canada has a lower maximum Somatic Cell Count (SCC) than the US, indicating a higher standard for milk quality and cow health.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:

1. rbST Ban:
Canada: By law, all milk produced and sold in Canada is free of rbST.
US: rbST is approved for use in the US to increase milk production in dairy cows, though its use is not mandatory.
Health Canada's Stance: While Health Canada determined that rbST does not pose a health risk to humans, it was found to have negative effects on the health and welfare of cows.

2. Somatic Cell Count (SCC):
Canada: The maximum allowable SCC in Canadian milk is 400,000 cells per milliliter, with a provincial average well below that.
US: The US has a higher maximum SCC.
SCC Significance: SCC is an indicator of milk quality, with lower counts generally associated with better quality milk and healthier cows.

3. Milk Quality Programs:
Canada:
Canada has stringent milk quality programs and services that help farmers produce high-quality and safe dairy products.
US:
The US relies on a system of Grade AA, A, or B designations for certain dairy products like butter and cheeses, with U.S. Extra Grade for others.

4. Regulatory Differences:
Canada:
The Canadian dairy industry operates under a supply management system, which includes quotas and price regulation. This system aims to provide stability and consistent production levels.

US:
The US dairy industry is more market-driven, with farmers benefiting from subsidies but facing greater market volatility.
In essence, the Canadian approach to dairy production emphasizes animal welfare and milk quality through stricter regulations and a focus on minimizing the use of artificial growth hormones and maintaining low SCC levels, while the US allows for the use of rbST and has different standards for milk quality. Dairy Farmers of Canada notes that products made with US ingredients may not be guaranteed to be rbST-free.

I did try the US meet, and to be honest, I am not a fan (nothing personal) - I will skip this one. Plus, all those pumped hormones; the meat doesn't need it if it is of good quality and raised properly. I tried Argentinian, South African, British, Wagyu (top class), those meats are perfection and organic
You can scratch SA from that list, come here and check for yourself; you will be surprised.

Forgediron - Thank you for a well written response that I can totally agree with. I PERSONALLY have never had Aussie beef; only Brazil, Japan and US.

Tastewise - the Japanese Wagyu - but too expensive for regular consumption - special events only.
Brazil meats - eating in the all you can eat in Texas de Brazil - acceptable

US meet that I mostly consume: Ground and sirloins and I'm happy with taste and quality.

I wish you the best and respect your position.

{quote} You sound exactly like President Donald J. Trump. Influenced much?
I do? Lol, I guess he does sound like that at times.
I’m primarily influenced by being raised on a farm and the knowledge we are very well known for our quality and organic beef.
Also by the knowledge we export around 2000 times as much beef to America each year, as what we used to import before we found mad cow disease in their beef.
So no, we don’t don’t need American beef except as a loss leader to maintain trade relations.

I just had a peek of the monthly Feeder Cattle futures chart - since year 2000.

Price about $1.30 per pound in 2020, which except for a couple years prior in 2014 and 2015 it managed over 1.60 peaking at 2.30, about 1.20+/- was about it.

Since then, pretty much a continuous (with a contracting triangle a couple years ago) trajectory up to about $3.20-3.30 now. Smooth.

I see they are trading out to Aug '26. I reckon I'd hedge a bit if I were a cattle dude in the US given what I see of price action the last 25 years. I very much doubt that any possible Australian demand will have any bearing on price.

Lol as an Australian who has ties with the supermarket industry here, if the big supermarkets can get a good price for US beef, they will sell it. They will market it to consumers as hard as possible, and the consumers will buy it. You can say what you want about "Australian's won't buy US beef", but we will. There will be no debate on that. It'll probably be done through sneaky tactics, hiding exactly where it comes from and what's actually in it, just like everything else.
