Livestock prices during
1974 probably »ill be nea
rer 1972 levels than the
highs of last year but re
tail meat prices are likely
to stay high even if there
is some relief from the host
of problems that troubled
the industry in 1973, savOre-
gon State University Agricul
tural specialists.
Drought, price ceilings,
high feed costs and shor
tages, import-export woes,
and environmental impact re
gulations hurt livestock pro
fits and productions last vear,
it »as noted The energy cri
sis is a further complication
now.
It al! adds up to a time
of uncertainty and concern
for both meat producers and
consumers, according to
■■Oregon’s 1974 Agricultural
Situation and Outlook." pub
lished by the (KU Extension
Service
Authors are Stephen C.
Marks. Extension agricultu
ral economist, and Dean
W. Frischknecht and John
H. Landers, Extension ani
mal science specialists.
At present, the U. S beef
cattle population is largest
ever but the nation’s dairy
herd has been getting smal
ler in recent years. Oregon's
cattle herd increases have
been cut by the severe drought
and poor range conditions of
1973, they observed.
Hog numbers meanwhile
are at a cyclical low point
and the sheep flock is the
smallest since the tieginning
of the century Sheep, lamb
and wood production dropped
to a near record low in 1973.
Oregon producers' ability
to compete with meat ani
mal raisers closer to abun
dant feed resources will con
tinue to tie limited, the Ex
tension specialists emphasi
sed Energy shortages could
seriously complicate the Ore
gon picture too. It may be
difficult to get animals to
distant markets.
‘ Oregon cattlemen will
want to watch closely for
any Important changes in Bu
reau of Land Management
and U. S. ForestService gra
zing regulations and fees, De
partment of Environmental
Quality regulations, trans
portation rates, crop pro
duction forecasts and grain
and hay stocks reports,"
the
university specialists
pointed out.
All will play a part in
meat prices.
