US beef export sales data revised sharply downward by USDA

The change has drawn criticism from ranchers who tied the deterioration to weaker conditions for U.S. beef export sales.

Reported · Written up by our desk · Agriculture

MarketWatch reports that the USDA made a large revision to its beef export sales data, reflecting a noticeable deterioration in the figures.

The outlet says ranchers described the revision as another sign of worsening conditions, using a metaphor about “driving one more nail into the proverbial coffin.”
