摘要:Total red meat and poultry production rose over 3 percent in 1991, paced by gains in poultry and pork. An increase of 4 percent is anticipated in 1992. Both pork and poultry production are expected to again register solid gains. However, beef production is expected to continue with only a modest gain. On a per capita basis, total meat production rose over 5 pounds in 1991, and is expected to increase another 8 pounds this year. Achieving these expectations would mark the tenth consecutive year of rising per capita production. However, the prospects for larger production suggest livestock prices will continue to be pressured during 1992.
