There is no shortage of data. Reports, dashboards, headlines, hot takes from every direction. What is missing is someone to tell you what actually matters and what you can safely ignore. That is why I am here.

I am Michael DiSabato. I have spent more than 30 years in the protein industry, working across the beef, pork, and chicken markets and sitting on just about every side of the table. The one lesson that has held up the whole way through: the best decisions come from cutting through the noise, not drowning in it.

I am also the founder of HighLine Consulting Group, a protein industry advisory firm. We help companies turn market signals into procurement and business decisions they can stand behind, with clarity instead of guesswork.

HighLine Insights is where I share that thinking openly, every week. Each issue is built to be read in a few minutes and to leave you with something you can use:

  • Center of the Plate is the one story shaping the market this week, plus my take on what it means for you.

  • Prime Cut and The Cutsheet are the stat and the numbers worth tracking.

  • The Holding Pen is what I am watching next.

  • On the Rail is a short list of reads worth your time.

No fluff, no jargon for its own sake, no analysis paralysis. Just an experienced read on beef, pork, and chicken and the forces moving them.

If that sounds useful, subscribe and join us. New issues land weekly, and I would be glad to have you along.
