flag Trump expands Argentine beef imports to 80,000 tons to lower prices amid U.S. supply shortages.

flag President Donald Trump signed an executive order Friday increasing the 2026 tariff-rate quota for Argentine beef imports from 20,000 to 80,000 metric tons, primarily for lean trimmings used in ground beef, as part of a broader U.S.-Argentina trade agreement. flag The move, aimed at boosting supply and lowering consumer prices amid record-high beef costs, follows a shrinking U.S. cattle herd due to drought and wildfires. flag While the administration argues the increase will support affordability, some American ranchers have raised concerns about competition, domestic price pressure, and animal health risks. flag The expansion is temporary and limited to specific beef products, tied to current market conditions.
