Excerpt from The National Food Situation, Vol. 91: February 1960
The demand for food in the United States will continue strong in 1960. Total food supplies are expected to be up some from 1959 but because of the population increase civilian per capita food consumption will likely differ little from last year. Retail food prices this year are expected to average about the same as in 1959.
Civilians will likely have as much livestock food products per capita this year as last. Increases are in prospect for beef, veal, lamb and mutton, and turkey. The averages for dairy products as a group, chickens, and lard will likely be about the same as in 1959, but some decline is indicated for pork.
