# Meat faces new price pressures for 2027

> Mexico’s meat industry council forecasts 2027 price increases of 6% for beef, 4.8% for pork and 3.3% for chicken, attributing the outlook to production costs, road insecurity, energy, animal health and reliance on imported inputs. The forecasts are estimates, not price increases already applied to consumers.

## Why it matters
