Its pretty hard here to get anything other then grass fed cattle.

Generally most meat cuts are $10 to $20 (sometimes up to $30) a kilo.

Or in US terms $3.50 to $7 a pound for most cuts with some things like scotch fillets $10 a pound.
Gah, even the finest cuts here are 7.99 per pound tops, and that for high end stuff thats fresh off the block. I can usually finds a 2 pound corn-fed London broil or Ribeye for about 9 US dollars fresh, 6 dollars 3 days old, and that not buying in bulk but at the grocer.

The grass fed stuff, however, is a good 25% more expensive straight up, and there's less of it around which raises the price during droughts. Honestly, I can't taste the difference unless theres also a fat content variable, but I'd rather not eat the corny beef as it does not contribute to the subsidy sham. Grass fed farmers have a hard scrabble and are highly vulnerable to weather fluctuations, and I'm more than happy to support them because they are the real farmers, not jimmy the corn king.
