Explainer: Why is the price of beef mince on the up (again)?

from RNZ - All Programmes

Beef mince used to be cheap & versatile red meat option for Kiwi households. But now we're paying $24.40 per kilo - that's a 30 percent increase in just two and a half years. So what's driving the demand? And can we expect prices to come back down? To answer those questions and more, Jesse is joined by Jen Corkran - Senior Animal Protein Analyst at Rabobank.
