Book excerpt: The growth of the global meat industry and the implications for climate change, food insecurity, workers' rights, the treatment of animals, and other issues. Global meat production and consumption have risen sharply and steadily over the past five decades, with per capita meat consumption almost doubling since 1960. The expanding global meat industry, meanwhile, driven by new trade policies and fueled by government subsidies, is dominated by just a few corporate giants. Industrial farming—the intensive production of animals and fish—has spread across the globe. Millions of acres of land are now used for pastures, feed crops, and animal waste reservoirs. Drawing on concrete examples, the contributors to Global Meat explore the implications of the rise of a global meat industry for a range of social and environmental issues, including climate change, clean water supplies, hunger, workers' rights, and the treatment of animals. Three themes emerge from their discussions: the role of government and corporations in shaping the structure of the global meat industry; the paradox of simultaneous rising meat production and greater food insecurity; and the industry's contribution to social and environmental injustice. Contributors address such specific topics as the dramatic increase in pork production and consumption in China; land management by small-scale cattle farmers in the Amazon; the effect on the climate of rising greenhouse gas emissions from cattle raised for meat; and the tensions between economic development and animal welfare.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Livestock and Meat Situation: July, 1950 Output of meat, nowat its seasonal low, 'will increase gradually through the' rest of the year. Production in october-december is expect-p ed to be slightly larger than a year earlier. The gain will be in pork, largely because of the 3 percent increase in the spring pig crop, and in the better grades of beef. The quantity of beef produced from grass cattle probably will be about the same as in the fall of 1949. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Livestock and Meat Situation, Vol. 31: September, 1949 September less meat is likely to be sold from storage than in the compa rable month of 1948. Supplies of beef the rest of this year will be influenced on the one hand by the prospective larger number of grain-fed cattle, and on the other hand by the fewer grass cattle, that will be slaughtered this year compared'with last. More cattle have been fed this year than in 1948; on August 1, the increase in the number on feed in the Corn Belt was 24 per cent. Consequently, slaughter of grain-fed cattle this fall will exceed that of last year. How many grass cattle will go to slaughter will be governed mainly by the number of cattle put into feed lots, since sale of twe-way cattle as feeders removes them.from.the immediate supply for slaughter. The most likely prospect is that eattle slaughter will have less of a seasonal peak this fall than usual and that the total number slaughtered in the last months of the year will be slightly smaller'than in the same neriod of 1948. Since weights per head.will be beatier, beef production may be as large or slightly larger than in late 1948.

This book was released on 2003-04-07 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Air Emissions from Animal Feeding Operations: Current Knowledge, Future Needs discusses the need for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to implement a new method for estimating the amount of ammonia, nitrous oxide, methane, and other pollutants emitted from livestock and poultry farms, and for determining how these emissions are dispersed in the atmosphere. The committee calls for the EPA and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to establish a joint council to coordinate and oversee short - and long-term research to estimate emissions from animal feeding operations accurately and to develop mitigation strategies. Their recommendation was for the joint council to focus its efforts first on those pollutants that pose the greatest risk to the environment and public health.

This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Livestock and Meat Situation, Vol. 91: August 1957 If general economic factors affecting cattle remain about as in 1957, numbers might not decrease as long or as far as usual. The low point might come in 1959 or 1960, and at around 92 million head. This is an estimate built on year-to-year projections of cow numbers, calf cr0p and slaughter rate, summary data for which are in table 6. A reduction in cattle inventories begins when prices (current and prospective) are unprofitably low relative to the factors involved in produc tion. Range and feed conditions, costs of purchased feeds, other cost rates, and the availability and cost of financing. Similarly, numbers are built up again when the price outlook is favorable relative to those factors. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Livestock and Meat Situation: August 17, 1956 Chief reduction this fall will be in slaughter of hogs. Following an 8 percent cut in the number of spring pigs saved, slaughter will increase less rapidly than last fall and will drop progressively farther below last year's slaughter rate. Slaughter of cattle is expected to continue above last year. However, average weights will be lighter and no more beef may be turned out than last fall. Fewer fed cattle may be slaughtered, as indicated by the 10 per cent fewer ou feed this July 1 than last, but slaughter of grass cattle will be larger. Calf slaughter in months to come may exceed a year before, sheep and lamb slaughter may drop below. Prices of fed cattle are likely to stay above last year. Feeder cattle prices, while declining seasonally, may gradually close the gap with last year. Prices of hogs will decline seasonally but probably will be above a year before. They definitely are not expected to drop as low as they did last December. Lamb prices may continue to average as high or higher thm last year.

This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Livestock and Meat Situation: November 6, 1956 In 1956 about million cattle and calves are being slaughtered. This is 1 million more than in 1955 and almost the same as the number produced less death losses. Thus, little change is likely in the 1957 cattle inventory. Nor will the count of individual kinds of cattle change much. The cow herd probably is nearly stable. The number of young stock on farms will remain very large, but probably will contain fewer heavy steers and more calves than last January. With this prospective inventory, cattle and calf slaughter may be fully as great in 1957 as in 1956. However, slaughter weights may average lighter than in 1956, when those through June were the heaviest for any recent year. Slaughter in 1957 will include as namr or more fed cattle, though these too will be lighter. With supplies staying cyclically large, no marked general change in cattle prices is likely. Prices of fed cattle will probably decline seasonally this winter but almost certainly will not repeat their low of early 1956. They may stay above comparable 1956 prices through the first half-year. As the supply of fed cattle for slaughter in 1957 will probably be distributed more evenly than in 1956, a price rise next sumner equal to that of this summer is not likely. However, weather and other conditions will affect actual price trends during the year. Sheep and lambs, like cattle, are neither increasing nor decreasing in number. Expansion in the East is offset by reductions in parts of the Wes Since May, lamb prices have been higher than last year, partly in reflecti of improving prices for meat animals generally. The higher level may con tinne through the first half of 1957. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Livestock and Meat Situation, Vol. 107: January 1960 Cattle slaughter was above a year ago in the final 2 months of 1959 after lagging behind a year earlier for approximately 2 years. Calf slaugh ter in commercial plants was also near the previous year's rate for the first time since the fall of 1957. These developments reflect a continued high rate of fed cattle marketings plus some slackening in withholdings for herd expansion. Fed cattle will make up the bulk of slaughter supplies this winter and spring and will continue large throughout the year. However, marketing of grass cattle next summer and fall will likely be moderately larger than during these seasons in 1959. Sheep and lamb slaughter has been significantly larger than a year earlier since July. As the 1959 lamb crop was up only 2 percent, slaughter this winter is expected to drop below last winter. Price advances will be moderated by liberal supplies of competing meats, but prices should soon rise seasonally up to or a little above last winter.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Livestock and Meat Situation: Jan. 7, 1955 Cattle slaughter this winter is expected to be very nearly as large as last winter. It probably will include about as many cows, fewer grass steers, and as many or more fed steers as last winter. However, for several weeks the supply of highly finished fed steers will continue seasonally short, and the price spread between top and lower grades will likely remain wide. The spread is expected to narrow as prices for fed cattle decline seasonally and prices for grass cattle increase during late winter and early spring. Although the beef supply may be no larger or a bit smaller this winter than last, the output of pork will be greater. A considerable number of hogs remained on hand January 1 from the 195k spring pig crop, which was up 12 percent from 1953. The fall pig crop increased 16 percent.
