> RaboResearch's quarterly beef report finds global cattle markets trending higher in the first half of 2025, with European prices rising sharply as supply contracted. Bluetongue in Europe and the UK, along with screwworm in Mexico that closed the U.S. border to Mexican cattle, are constraining supply. Trade flows are expected to hold unless a U.S. trade war with major partners develops.
