AP Farm Writer Don Kendall reports that lard production and per capita consumption have fallen to the lowest levels in six decades as farmers raise fewer and thinner pigs. For the year ended Sept 30 production dipped to under 1.1 billion pounds, down 20 percent from 1973 74, with forecasts of about 975 million pounds this season. Hog slaughter fell to 73 million head from over 81 million in 1973 74, the lowest since 1985, while yields averaged 14.7 pounds per hog. High feed costs and cautious farming cuts drive the reduced output, with meaningful recovery unlikely until late 1976. Per capita lard use remains around three pounds annually.
