Canada: Livestock and Products Annual
The cattle sector is expected to grow only marginally in 2017. Cattle exports and slaughter are forecast to increase; coupled with heavier carcasses beef production will be on the rise. Beef exports will continue to be supported by a weaker dollar. The hog sector continues on its path of moderate growth, and hog exports are forecast higher in 2017. Pork production is expected to reach a new record volume, while pork exports are estimated steady into 2017, at a record level as well.
