Iowa State College economist Francis A. Kutish notes cattle and calf slaughter rose to 37 million in 1953, up 42 percent from 1951, but production lagged. Cattle herd surpassed 94 million this year after a 1 million rise, with most growth in cows and heifers. Slaughter remains about 10 percent above a year ago, signaling potential stabilization or slight decrease in 1954.
Kutish projects total slaughter this year at 40 to 42 million head, with cattle on feed up from last year. He notes beef outputs may stay high through 1955 1956, and prices likely fall slightly next year barring income changes. Feeder cattle profits hinge on fall feeder cattle costs.
