华盛顿8月26日电(路透社)——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周三在格伦·贝克节目中表示,在贝克提出放松监管将让农民和牧场主能够自行屠宰牲畜后,他将审查牛肉加工厂是否存在过多监管规定。
特朗普政府一直在推动在全美范围内减少监管。

贝克请特朗普“审视肉类加工行业的卡特尔组织”,并暗示放松农业部的监管将让规模较小的牧场主更轻松地自行加工牛肉。
“这对牧场主来说可能是个非常好的举措,”特朗普说,“我只听到过负面评价——目前只有四家企业,这是垄断。”
四家公司控制了美国约85%的肉类加工业务:嘉吉(RIC:RIC:CARG.UL)、泰森食品(TSN.N,将在新标签页打开)、JBS美国分公司(RIC:RIC:JBS.UL)以及国家牛肉包装公司(RIC:RIC:NBEEF.UL)。美国司法部去年表示,正在调查肉类加工企业是否非法推高了消费者购买牛肉的价格。
特朗普上周表示,他计划暂时放松对部分牛肉进口的关税,以试图降至创纪录的高位牛肉价格。此举遭到了包括美国农场局联合会这一顶级农业游说团体在内的农业组织的批评。
美国农场局联合会主席齐皮·杜瓦尔在周二的一封信中敦促特朗普重新考虑该计划,称其将“破坏为美国家庭辛勤种植粮食的美国牧场主”。
农业部长布鲁克·罗林斯周二在白宫对记者表示,她不清楚特朗普宣布的措施将涵盖哪些国家。

WASHINGTON, Aug 26 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday said on the Glenn Beck program that he will look into whether there are too many regulations on beef processing plants, after Beck suggested less regulation would enable farmers and ranchers to do their own slaughtering.
The Trump administration has moved to reduce regulation across the government.

Beck asked Trump to “look at the cartel that is the meat processing cartel” and suggested that reducing Department of Agriculture regulation would make it easier for smaller-scale ranchers to process their own beef.
“This could be a very good call for ranchers,” Trump said. “I’ve been hearing only bad about – it’s four places, and it’s a monopoly.”
Four companies control about 85% of U.S. meat processing: Cargill RIC:RIC:CARG.UL; Tyson Foods TSN.N, opens new tab; JBS USA RIC:RIC:JBS.UL; and National Beef Packing Co RIC:RIC:NBEEF.UL. The Justice Department last year said it was investigating whether meatpacking companies were illegally driving up consumer beef prices.
Trump last week said he plans to temporarily ease tariffs on some beef imports in an attempt to lower record-high beef prices. The move was criticized by farm groups, including top farm lobby the American Farm Bureau Federation.
AFBF president Zippy Duvall urged Trump in a Tuesday letter to reconsider the plan, arguing it will “undermine America’s ranchers who work tirelessly to grow food for American families.”
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins told reporters at the White House on Tuesday that she did not know which countries were covered by Trump’s announcement.
