Tyson Foods to close US beef plant as cattle supplies dwindle
Nov 21, 2025 1:39 PM

CHICAGO, Nov 21 (Reuters) - Tyson Foods ( TSN ) will

close a beef plant in Lexington, Nebraska, with about 3,200

employees after U.S. cattle supplies dropped to their lowest

level in nearly 75 years, the meatpacker said on Friday.

Supplies are expected to remain tight for the next two

years, forcing meatpackers like Tyson and JBS USA to pay steep

prices for cattle to process into steaks and hamburgers.
