Beef Slump in Argentina Echoes Consumer Prices
The Agriculture Department reports Argentina’s beef production fell 21 percent in 1971 to 4.5 billion pounds as heavy slaughter in 1969 and 1970 led to rationing and a drop in per capita beef consumption from 185 to 146 pounds. By comparison the United States produced 21.7 billion pounds with about 113 pounds per person. If the slump mirrored U.S. patterns, domestic prices and supply could face pressure.

Farm Roundup highlights beef shortages and US impacts
The United States faced a one fifth drop in beef per person from 1970 levels with 90 pounds per person last year. Argentine cattle prices rose to record highs, around 19.10 per 100 pounds live weight in January, easing to about 17 later on. US imports of canned corned beef fell 53 percent to 27.3 million pounds in 1971, while frozen cooked beef imports dropped 26 percent to 42.4 million pounds. The US does not import uncooked beef from Argentina due to foot and mouth disease. Eight 4-H Club members were announced as the national report-to-the-nation team at the 42nd National 4-H Conference in Washington. Also, US March egg production totaled 6.287 billion eggs, up 1 percent from last year, with layers numbering 320.6 million hens, down over three million from a year earlier.
