Feed Shortage Reflected in Fewer Livestock
The American Feed Manufacturers Association predicted continued reduced supplies of meat, milk, and eggs for many months due to a feed shortage that ended last spring. It said the livestock and poultry population was cut last year and further declined in July and August. By Jan 1 hens and pullets will be 10 percent fewer, dairy cows 5 percent fewer, and farrowings of pigs at least 20 percent lower, delaying benefits from available feed until animal numbers recover.
