Pork Imports Exports Closer To Balance

U.S. pork trade nears balance as exports to Japan rise. Iowa State economist J. Marvin Skadberg notes imports average 430 million pounds yearly, with Denmark Poland and the Netherlands supplying canned hams. He projects 1976 exports at about 3 percent of production, challenging imports. Japan becomes top pork buyer as domestic production fails to meet demand.
