More Meat to Eat in ’74
Americans will have more
meat to eat in 1974 than in
1973, Richard Lyng,
president of the American
Meat Institute, said recently.
U.S. consumption of red
meats this year should be
about 180.4 pounds per
person, up nearly four
pounds per person over 1973,
but below 1972 levels, Lyng
said at a press conference at
the Palmer House, Chicago.
He said that the 1973 meat
boycott and price controls
have made livestock
growers uncertain about
future expansion of
production. He urged
removal of remaining Phase
IV economic controls on the
meat industry as a signal to
livestock producers that the
government intends to
return to the free market in
meat.
“Producer confidence
needs to be restored now,”
he said, “because production
decisions being made now
will determine our meat
supplies later this year and
into 1975 and beyond.”
Lyng predicted that in 1974
each American would eat 115
pounds of beef, up nearly
four and a half pounds from
1973 ; 61.5 pounds of pork,
down slightly from last year;

2.6 pounds of lamb and 1.3
pounds of veal, about the
same as in 1973.
“Supplies of beef and pork
will probably be quite tight
at times during the first half
of the year,” Lyng said. “But
more beef and pork should
start coming to market
during the second half of
1974.”
He cited some favorable
indicators for 1974 meat
supplies such as a record and

Industry.
Lyng said that there will
be strong demand for meat
in 1974, so prices will be firm
and probably will average
higher than in 1973. But they
will not reach the peak

Mordan pointed out that
“banker association ac
tivities through the years
have played a prominent
role in helping banks remain
the largest lenders to
agriculture.”
On January 1 of 1973
Pennsylvania banks were
helping farmers with $433
million in loans.
Mordan added that' the
award is also recognized of
efforts by banks to provide
that ‘extra’ service to the
state’s farmers.
This is the thirtieth year
that the bankers association
has received the national
award, indicating the con
tinuing interest on the part of
banks in a sound agricultural
economy.
