Production may rise modestly, but most gains absorbed by military needs and noncombat civilian demand. Per capita civilian meat consumption projected near 131 pounds in 1944, with total meat output around 25.0 to 25.5 billion pounds dressed. Slaughtering of cattle and hogs up modestly, with feed inventories and market timing shaping actual flow.
