Cattle hides gain importance in U S exports noted by ERS
Washington AP reports Agriculture Department analyst Allen J. Baker says cattle hides are rising as export items due to less domestic shoe leather demand and shifting world trade. He notes U.S. shoe production fell 15 million pairs since 1968, with imports from Italy and Spain influencing prices. Japan remains top overseas buyer, while sugar beet hearings set for December in San Francisco and Washington. Meat imports in September hit a record 158.6 million pounds, nine-month total 953.86 million, mostly beef from Australia and New Zealand.
