Where’s the beef? Consumers connect with ranchers
Consumers looking for beef still have a lot of options
The Saskatchewan Stock Growers Association (SSGA) has compiled a list of beef producers offering direct sales to customers.
SSGA general manager Chad MacPherson said COVID-19 is disrupting beef processing in Canada and the U.S. and some consumers are turning to local producers for meat supplies.
“In the last weeks, we’ve been receiving more calls from people looking to buy beef directly from ranchers,” MacPherson told farmnewsNOW. “We thought it would be an opportunity for us to help.”
