The meat price refers to the price of meat.
Inexpensive meat or cheap meat include e.g. fatty cuts of lamb or mutton. [1]
Factors influencing the price of meat include supply and demand, subsidies, [2] hidden costs, [3] taxes, quotas or non-material costs ("moral cost") of meat production. Non-material costs can be related to issues such as animal welfare (e.g. treatment of animals, over-breeding). [4] [5] [6] Hidden costs of meat production can be related to the environmental impact of meat production and to the effect on human health (such as resistant antibiotics). [7] Critics of the meat industry often point to these aspects as a problem. [8]
