In wholesale prices, global beef market deacreased by X% to $X in 2016, fluctuating somewhat notably over the last ten years against changes in producer prices, yield and global stock. This figure reflects total revenue of producers and importers (excluding logistics costs, retail marketing costs, and retailers' margins, which will be included in the final consumer price).
