Cattle farmers are facing financial difficulties due to rising fuel prices, which forces them to tighten their belts regarding their activity.
Transport of animals represents one of the main expenses affected by rising fuel prices, significantly increasing the operational costs of farms.

Costs associated with each animal have been increasing steadily, calling into question the economic viability of livestock farms.
