Abstract
A total production of 137 million tons of meat was produced in 1979, and pork, beef, poultry, sheep, and goat meat accounted for 97% of this total (Jensen 1980). A great percentage of the meat is consumed in the country in which it is produced, with only 5% being exported [excluding trade between European Economic Community (EEC) countries], and the developing countries, if considered as a block, import approximately the same amount as they export (FAO 1980).
