# SE Asia report: Indo challenges mount | Swine fever ramifications | French frog legs - Beef Central

> Indonesian slaughter steer prices have fallen again in December, with the indicator at Rp41,000 per kg farm gate. Large feedlot inventories from imports of 60,000 and 70,000 cattle in July and August have created oversupply, and October imports of about 81,000 head are expected to add pressure. Australian frozen beef is also competing with lower-cost buffalo beef in Indonesia.
