Flu May Have Market Impact On Beef Producers
Public focus and inaccurate references with respect to swine flu have devastated pork producers and experts predict impacts on all other meats as well.
Inaccurate references to swine flu are resulting in decreased demand for pork products. The H1N1 flu virus is also likely to impact consumer consumption of all other meats as well, as consumers who are concerned over the safety of pork are likely to reduce consumption of other meats also.
This situation could delay the economic recovery of the United States as other countries are likely to impose bans on the imports of various meats.
