Meat Consumption Is Studied at College Station
A USDA based review shows nearly one third of total farm cash receipts come from meat animals. Meat per capita use remains flat over 50 years while population growth drives total consumption higher. Regions differ: beef favored in the West, pork in the South, lamb/mutton dominant in the Northeast. Bergsma notes price swings greatly affect farm income and calls for competitive meat production to meet rising demand.
