AgWatchersX EP14: Sheep, Cattle & the Shifting Global Game
This episode breaks down how the Middle East conflict, US-China tensions, and extreme weather are reshaping Australian red meat exports. Sheep meat is bouncing back. Cattle prices are holding firm despite softening. And supply chain disruptions may be opening doors most producers haven't spotted yet.
You'll get the details on:
Why China's demand for Australian beef and sheep keeps swinging — and what it means for your margins
How South Korea quietly became Australia's #2 beef export market, ahead of China
What US tariffs and trade programs mean for Australian competitiveness
How droughts and global conflict are moving grain and fertiliser markets — and what that means for future yields
Why ageing populations and rising protein demand will reshape meat markets long-term
Built for farmers, export traders, and anyone in red meat, grains, or fertiliser who needs clarity, not noise, to make the next move.
