INTRODUCTIONMeat & Poultry Facts 2015 is the 44th edition of this popular livestock and meat industry resource. Produced by Sterling Marketing, Inc. and the North American Meat Institute, this compendium of livestock and meat industry information presents a sound foundation for analyzing and understanding key trends.

2015 Industry Highlights

The red meat and poultry industry came into 2015 as herd building began for both the beef and pork industries. Prices across the beef supply chain (except grinding beef and trim) continued to strengthen during the year and hit new records. Although cattle prices fell precipitously following Labor Day, the year’s markets will still perform relatively close to 2014’s record for cow-calf producer margins, thus keeping herd expansion on track. Sharp increases in pork production kept prices across the pork supply chain significantly below the year-earlier levels, but margins for both packers and producers remained positive. Consequently, producer margins were close to the historical top end of the range and expansion will stay in place, particularly with relatively low feed costs.

U.S. beef imports continued to be strong during 2015 and were largely driven by herd liquidation in Australia brought on by the El Nino driven drought. Through September 2015, imports were up 30 percent from a year ago with Australian beef posting a 47 percent increase from a year ago. During 2014, Australia’s shipments to the U.S. were up 74 percent from the prior year. Although herd liquidation was the catalyst to increased supply in Australia, the strong U.S. dollar and subsequent weak Australian dollar provided the economic incentive to export to the U.S. Australian beef imports tapered significantly from 2008 to 2013, when U.S. demand was reduced by a strong Aus. dollar and high U.S. prices. At the same time, Asian beef demand was growing and Australia filled that demand. The last two years have once again proven that the U.S. is ultimately the market for Australia’s beef.

Exports of both beef and pork, to a lesser extent, were negatively affected by the strong dollar and weaker Asian economies. Japan accounts for 26 percent of U.S. beef exports and 32 percent of U.S. pork exports. Through September, U.S. beef exports were down 13 percent from a year earlier while U.S. pork exports were down one percent from a year ago. The Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement was signed by 12 countries on October 5th and sent to the U.S. Congress for review and ratification. The up or down vote under trade promotion authority is expected in early 2016. The agreement would significantly reduce tariffs and ultimately remove quotas in countries signing the agreement, thus providing greater access for U.S. beef and pork, primarily in Japan.

Of course, challenges are never lacking in this industry, but in this situation, the challenges came back to back with PED virus followed immediately by avian influenza. Avian influenza became the challenge during 2015. Although broiler production was largely unaffected, egg production was significantly impacted because the disease was notable in the laying flock. At the same time, turkey production was hard hit.

The problem of avian influenza was no sooner solved when the industry was faced with a report from the World Health Organization’s (WHO) International Agency for Research on Cancer indicating the consumption of processed and red meats is a cancer hazard. The North American Meat Institute quickly responded to the report and pointed out the lack of scientific evidence supporting the conclusions, while the WHO clarified its stance, saying red and processed meat can be consumed as part of a healthy diet.

Packer capacity in the red meat industry is always an interesting topic and 2015 was no exception. Record market hog numbers raised concern about available shackle space in the pork industry, rekindling memories of 4th quarter 1998. Based on Sterling’s estimate of 117 million head for our November annual hog slaughter projection, the industry operated at close to 99 percent utilization during 2015. Obviously, increased hog numbers during 2016 will create a capacity squeeze. Seaboard and Triumph Foods announced a joint venture to build a new plant in Sioux City, Iowa, with completion expected in 2017 and a capacity of three million hogs per year. Other notable news in the packing industry was JBS’s purchase of Cargill’s pork assets. The Beardstown, Illinois, and Ottumwa, Iowa, plants have a combined capacity of 38,000 per day, bringing JBS’s daily pork slaughter capacity to about 89,000 head.

On the beef side of the business, excess slaughter capacity continued to be the hot topic as cattle numbers further tightened in response to cattlemen holding heifers and building herds. Capacity was reduced by Tyson’s announcement to keep the Denison, Iowa, plant closed, reversing an earlier announcement on that plant’s status. Also, PM Beef closed its Caldwell Packing plant in Windom, Minnesota.

Sterling Marketing Inc. and the North American Meat Institute accept the challenge to produce Meat & Poultry Facts as the premier source for a compendium of meat and livestock industry information. We hope the publication will continue to help people, both inside and outside of this complex industry, to better understand the industry’s interesting, but sometimes confusing, dynamics.
