Livestock Feed Relationships
Seen Little Changed from 70-71
A cutback in hog production
may hold the number of gram
consuming animal units in the
October 1971 September 1972
feeding year to about 118 3
million, nearly the same as in the
preceding year, according to a
report issued recently by the U S
Department of Agriculture
Packaging News
One new trend in food
packaging, explains Harold
Neigh, Extension consumer
economist at Penn State
University, is more ready-to
serve foods Researchers are now
working on grapefruit halves
already segmented in a
disposable bowl It’s being
developed in an effort to get fresh
grapefruit to people in in
stitutions who would not nor
mally eat grapefruit because of
time costs in preparation But it
will probably be available in
retail stores, too

The current situation and
outlook for livestock-feed
relationships are discussed in
this report by USDA’s Economic
Research Service Also included
are statistical indexes showing
relationships between livestock
numbers and feed and livestock
production and feed These in
dexes are given on a State and
national basis by kinds of on
farm livestock and their
corresponding livestock
products
During the 1970-71 feeding
year, the number of grain con
suming animal units rose 3 per
cent over the year before Hogs
and turkeys registered the
largest percentage gains,
followed by beef cattle other than
those on feed, and hens and
pullets
Broiler feeding margins caused
a reversal in the normal 2 to 3 per
cent yearly expansion rate in
broiler units which prevailed
during the 1960’5, broiler units
dropped 1 per cent during 1970
However, broiler placements
during the current feeding year
are well ahead of the 1970 level,
so the uptrend may resume.
Livestock production units
based on concentrates during the
1970-71 feeding year rose 3 per
cent to a record high of 126.4
million—with hogs, cattle on
feed, andbroilers chalking up the
highest percentage gains.
Prospects are for another 2 per
cent hike during the 1971-72
feeding year.
