EPISODE 67 DETAILS
A New Packing Plant & Consumer Food Prices
New Packing Plant In Missouri
America’s Heartland Packing is finishing construction of its new plant in Warren County, Mo., with processing operations now slated to begin in April, the company said Tuesday.
A division of Wisconsin-based American Foods Group (AFG) LLC, the $800 million plant will have a daily capacity of eventually more than 2,400 head in a 775,000-square-foot, mixed cattle facility, including a harvest floor, carcass chillers, fabrication area, rendering, further processing area, storage coolers, freezers and loading docks.
President Trump Urged To Make Changes & Address Food Costs
The Meat Institute urged President Donald Trump to reduce regulatory burdens that it says are driving up food costs for consumers. In a letter addressed to the president, Meat Institute President and CEO Julie Anna Potts highlighted the organization’s concerns about several regulations finalized under the previous administration and proposed actions to alleviate their impact.
The letter called on the administration to withdraw or revise rules, including USDA’s Inclusive Competition and Market Integrity rule. Additionally, the group urged the EPA to withdraw its Clean Water Act Effluent Limitations proposal, which the Meat Institute claims underestimates compliance costs and could force facilities to close.
The Meat Institute also expressed support for USDA’s inspection modernization for pork and poultry processing, advocating for interim rules to allow modernized facilities to operate above traditional line speeds. The organization emphasized the importance of these changes in addressing inflation and reducing consumer costs.
