By the New Year, beef prices could rise by 5-10% due to changes in livestock production.

This is due to the fact that many farms are switching to pork and poultry production, leading to a decline in beef production. At the same time, livestock maintenance costs are rising. At the same time, Stanislav Bogdanov, a retailer, maintains that there is sufficient meat on the market and prices are under control. He also noted that last year, beef prices increased by 4.3%. Therefore, in his opinion, there is no reason to expect a sharp price increase this year.
