EU beef production grew in the first half of 2024 but is forecasted to decline slightly due to structural issues and environmental regulation, leading to potential support for European cattle prices. The UK is the EU's main beef trading partner. In the US, beef production remains stable but is expected to decline in 2025 due to reduced cattle herds and climatic factors, leading to record high prices. Australia has become the largest beef importer to the US in 2024.
