Bought 1 kilo of ground beef yesterday at the supermarket for €7.99. How much did it cost at the village butcher?
As I wrote... €9.99. He also keeps animals himself and they are not cramped.
It just caught my attention because I think that especially these direct sellers have their calculations closely aligned with market conditions.
That doesn’t work with the discounters. That comes with a delay and during the time of a normal fattening period, farmers end up biting their nails because they cannot produce cost-effectively. In the next fattening cycle, fewer animals will be fattened, so the supply decreases and the prices rise further.
..., however, I am not so sure if I should not consider that a good thing.
At least up to a certain extent, that is not a bad development.
Having meat once a week is okay too.
