Meat Consumption Continues Up in 71
Per capita consumption of pork
in 1971 reached the highest level
since 1944, Clifton 'B. Cox, '
chairman of the Board of
Directors of the American Meat
Insititue reported recenlty.
On the average, each person in
the United States ate 73 pounds of
pork last year, an increase of
nearly seven pounds over 1970.
These spectacular increases in
pork boosted total red meat
consumption in 1971 to a record of
192 pounds per person, said Cox,
who is president of Armour Food
Company in Phoenix, Ariz.
He predicted that total meat
production and consumption will
reach new highs in 1972.
Cox said that the decision of the
nation’s farmers to raise fewer
pigs this year will cause a 750
million pound decline in pork
production and a five pound

decline in per capita pork con
sumption.
However, these decreases will
be offset by a substantial in
crease in beef supplies as a result
of the record feed grain harvest
in 1971 and the available supplies
of feeder cattle.
Cox predicted that beef
production will rise to 23 billion
pounds in 1972 boosting per capita
consumption to an all time high of
119 pounds up five pounds over
the previous record set this year.
In addition to pork, American
consumers, on the average, last
year ate nearly 113 pounds of
beef, down somewhat from 1970;
about three pounds of veal and
slightly more than three pounds
of lamb, Cox reported. He said
that beef consumption last year
edged downward due to lengthy
dock strikes that held up imports.
