OPS to Seek Retail Meat Price Slash
Price Chief Tighe Woods plans to cut consumer meat prices if legally possible. He ordered staff to prepare by next Monday an order rolling back retail meat prices and asked for reasons if not doable. Woods cites consumer concern over food costs and notes live cattle prices have fallen while beef prices stay high. Trade groups and industry reps dispute calls for excessive profits. Possible method under review is switching to a margin type regulation with regular ceiling recalculations reflecting wholesale costs.
