Meat production set to reach record in 1955 and rise in 1956
The Agriculture Department reports 1955 meat output near 26.7 billion pounds, five percent above 1954, with bumper feed crops and many meat animals. A 1956 high volume is viewed as almost certain, prices for feeder cattle expected to stay narrow with profits likely average to modest due to lower feed costs. The 1956 spring pig crop should exceed 1955, but gains may be moderate and margins remain slim amid large output.
