Got Beef? Tyson Shutting Down Wallula Plant For Now
I'm not sure if this is going to trigger the hoarders (it probably will) but Tyson has decided to shut down their beef plant temporarily while health officials test all workers for COVID-19. We've all heard about the number of workers who have already tested positive at the plant and this is obviously why they've made the decision to close for now. While beef supplies will be temporarily less, this also affects farmers and ranchers who depend on Tyson to purchase their stock.
