Livestock and Products Semi-annual

Cattle stocks are projected to expand in 2021 as the pace of slaughter slows after a strong 2020. Slightly lower carcass weights are expected to keep beef production stable at around 475,000 metric tons (MT). Beef imports will struggle to rebound from a slow 2020 amid sluggish foodservice demand. Swine stocks are projected to expand in 2021 on increased sow retention as robust market prices in 2020 support stable production at 1.3 million MT. Pork imports are projected to plateau after a strong 2020.
