In a recent online poll, Progressive Cattleman asked, “Do you agree with the USDA's decision to allow beef exports from Brazil into the U.S.?”

About 8.5 percent said they didn’t know. Another 12.8 percent said, “Yes, it's a fair decision that allows U.S. beef to go into Brazil.”

However, more than three-quarters (78.7 percent) of readers said, “No, Brazil still has significant risks with its beef supply.”  end mark
