Meat production poses Battle for Khrushchev by Peter Knox London upi1 agricultural experts Here believe russian pre Mier Nikita Khrushchev s Battle to give his people More Meatto eat might prove one of the toughest of his career. Khrushchev admitted in his speech to the communist party Central committee monday that there is a Scarcity of meat in rus Sia but predicted he would be Able to remedy the situation quickly. A Survey of soviet statistic available Here however indicated that the Battle to boost meat production has been in full swing thoughtful pose president Kennedy rests hit Chin in his hand m he nit in his rocking chair during a meeting at the White ii Ouw with All Benjelloun Morocco s new ambassador to the . A since about the time Khrushchev came to Power five years ago. Cattle sheep pigs and poultry have All increased considerably since 1956, but the rate of growth has done Little More than compensate for the rapid expansion of population and the improvement in living standards. The russian population is in creasing by 3,5 million people a year to the Point where it is no Well Over 200 million Mark and soon could reach the 250 million Mark. The amount of meat it produce remains Well below the figure for he United states with its 180 Mil lion population. Additionally the United states is a huge importer of beef Russia buys practically nothing abroad. Annual review figures published Here by the Commonwealth economic commit tee in their annual review meat showed that the cattle population in Russia went up from 58.8 Mil lion in 1956 to 75.8 million in 1961. But the increase Between 1960 and1961 was Only fractional74.2 Mil lion to 75.8 million. The rate of expansion in other words had dangerously slowed. During this same five states cattle population remained fairly steady it went from95.9 million in 1956 to 97.1 million in 1961. Russia s sheep population in creased from 103.3 million in 1956 to 132.9 million in 1961, according to meat but Many of these were for Wool production. Possible solution Khrushchev in his speech said that pigs and poultry might provide the answer to the meat shortage. The figures published by meat however showed that while pig meat production had gone ahead Between 1956-60 from 2.6 million tons to 3.2 million tons. It was actually falling at the end of the period. Production was 300,000 ton higher in 1959 than in 1960. Agricultural experts said that Khrushchev would need to produce some revolutionary new ideas to get production going Forward again.
