The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) plans to release new dietary guidelines this year. However, ag groups across different sectors are worried the draft guidelines released last fall could become a reality.
The Advisory Committee recommended focusing on less red meat in favor of plant-based proteins. The National Pork Producers Council (NPPC) has concerns and says the recommendations do not support human health and nutrition. The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) previously called the move a solution in search of a problem.
“While U.S. pork producers are committed to supporting human health and nutrition with safe, wholesome, and nutritious protein, the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee’s recommendations do not,” said Rob Brenneman, NPPC Vice President and pork producer from Washington, Iowa. “Our nation’s health is at risk, as these Guidelines inform all federal nutrition programs – including those affecting our schoolchildren and the military – and provide recommendations to health professionals. We urge this Committee to do the right thing: follow the science.”
