Meat price relief foreseen as quotas tie to supply
Treasury Secretary George P. Shultz predicted retail meat prices will level off next month and then fall as imports rise. A White House meeting with 12 meat exporting nations addressed voluntary quotas, suspended earlier by President Nixon, to boost U.S. beef and veal imports and ease consumer prices. Delegates from Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and others discussed 1971 quotas and possible 1973 concessions to reward cooperation while protecting U.S. shortages.

Production for 1972 was estimated at 23.3 billion pounds. Bray said the 1972 foreign meat import quota proved too low to affect domestic meat prices even though the quotas were increased by percent over 1971. The excerpt notes the slight impact of quotas on prices amid higher production.
