Beef - Veal Welt European imports of beef and veal will fall sharply in 1974, aa beef consumption remains depressed and production continues to increase, ac cording to a report issued recently by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Economic Research Service. A conservative forecast of a 10-percent increase in Western Europe’s produc tion would result in a more than 650,000 metric ton fall in their net import requirements. An even HOG PRODUCERS!

The sharp drop in West European imports will put increased pressure on the U.S. market, as suppliers seek to divert exports. For example, U.S. beef imports (mainly canned beef) from Argentina • a major supplier to Western Europe - were up by 54 percent in the first half of 1974. However, sanitary and health regulations will prohibit the major suppliers of the West European market from shipping fresh, chilled, or frozen bee! to the United States. Only cooked beef is allowed. Also, these regulations will restrict U.S. imports from most of the West European countries. Western Europe's pur chases from elsewhere - mainly Latin America, Eastern Europe, and to a lesser extent, Oceania • will likely suffer the most from the cutbacks. Actions so far by the West European governments to end the meat “glut” have been strongly oriented toward reduction of these imports. In addition to the existing tariffs and levies, the European Community has several times this year authorized the imposition of import embargoes on beef and veal imports from non-EC countries. On July 16, the EC banned imports of beef, veal, and live animals through October. Other West European countries have also taken restrictive action. Hie 1974 surge in beef production in Western Europe results from the large herd buildup that has taken place over the past 2 years. At the end of 1973 there were over 7 million head more cattle than 2 years earlier. This herd buildup was stimulated by improved profitability in the dairy sector and a big jump in beef prices in 1972 and early 1973. High levels of West European beef and veal production can be expected SPECIAL FALL FEEDER CATTLE SALE DEMONSTRATIONAL SALE WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23 BEGINNING AT 7:30 P.M.
