Meat packers have suffered the worst sustained losses in history, and I would not be surprised by any decisions that are made. Having said that, the major companies are doing their utmost to attempt to tweak their existing operations.

This business is about turning pennies into dollars and that's what they're trying to do.

Sadly the U.S. industry has not bitten the bullet and accepted the need for a compulsory system rather than voluntary system at this point.
