EPISODE 97 DETAILS
According to the USDA's August WASDE report, U.S. beef production in 2025 is projected at 25.992 billion pounds, reflecting a decline due to reduced fed and non-fed cattle slaughter and lighter dressed weights. If realized, this would mark the lowest annual beef production for the U.S. since 2016. Meanwhile, Brazil is forecast to produce 26.23 billion pounds of beef in 2025, slightly exceeding its record output from 2024. If this projection holds, Brazil will produce 243 million pounds more beef than the United States—a historic first.
This milestone marks a dramatic shift in global beef production dynamics. In 2000, the U.S. outproduced Brazil by more than 12.7 billion pounds, but that gap has steadily narrowed. While U.S. production has declined by 4.1% since 2000, Brazil’s output has surged by over 82% during the same period. Brazil first surpassed 20 billion pounds of beef production in 2007 and has steadily expanded each year since. The 2025 forecast reflects the culmination of this long-term growth trajectory, positioning Brazil as the world’s top beef producer for the first time on record.
