The 1972 summer outlook ties been prepared by Canada De- partment of Agriculture, as part of the program 'to regularly 1114.. form the agricultural community of the supply, demand and price for the major agricultural com- modities. Since many production decis- ions have already been made, particularly for crops, this is a general market outlook, With an accent on prices. The analyses are based on information available up to June 15, 1972. • There is also an assessment of farm income for 19'72 and, for the first time, an outlook on retail food prices.. This report is one of a number regularly issued by the Markets Outlook Section of Agriculture Canada. ' WHEAT Summary: , World exports in 1972-73 should be up slightly from the low level of 1971-72. Canada's total wheat and flour exports will probably exceed 500 million bushels in 1971-72, and should reach at least 450 million in 1972-79. Price changes are uncertain for the next six months. . World wheat trade between July, 1971 and March, 19'72, at 33.58 million-metric tons (m.t..), • was down from the year .earlier by 1.82 million m.t. While data available are still fragmentary, the level of world exports should increase in 1972-73 from the 1971-72 level. arc!! tura supp yr p ice trends durina summer DAIRY Summary: Canadian milk pro- duction in 1972 is forecast to in- crease three to 9.5 percent from 1971 levels. It may reach 18:4 billion pounds. Farm cash re- ceipts for milk and butterfat in cream will increase in 1972. Milk production is expected to be up this year, resulting in a larger output of butter, skim milk powder and whole milk cheeses other than cheddar. Fluid sales of milk and cream will increase about two percent over 1971. BEEF Summary: For the last half of 1972, prices and supplies will average above a year ago. Sum- mer demand for beef will be strong because of seasonal in- terest for outdoor cooking, low- er pork supplies, and aggressive packer competition for supplies., Federally inspected cattle ' slaughter in North America for the first ,six months of this year is up moderately from 1971 first half levels -- three per cent in Canada and one percent in the U.S. Average carcass, weights in both 'countries have shown little change from 1971. To the end, of May, Choice and Good slaughter cattle com- bined were up 'by '7.8 percent from the same period last year and accounted for 66- percent ef all slaughter. For. the same period, the combined slaughter of Standard, Commercial, Utility Manufacturing and, Bulls showed a decrease of 4.6 percent. By the end of May,. steer and heifer slaughter were up three and 10 percent respectively over May 1971, but cow slaughter was dawn 2.5 percent. In C anada, cattle slaughter for the last half of 1972 will probably exceed the last half level of 1971 by three to five percents mainly., as fed • beef. This is" a continua- tion of a trend begun in 1962. Cow slaughter is not expected to change significantly during the last half of 1972 because feeder cattle prices still favor herd ex- pansion. In the U.S., the .1972 annual increase in cattle slaughter is expected to be up about three, percent; 'with the bulk 'of the increase probably in fed steers. The lower female slaughter ex- pected in the U.S. indicates a continued buildup in cow flume bars. .. U.S. officials look for fed cat- tle marketings for the last half of 1972 to average four to five percent above 1971. This level • will probably brine about . some moderate price'weakness, prob- ably-$3d - $15-fai•—clioide steers at Omaha, compared to an aver-, age of $35.40 to the-end of May. In Canada, fed Cattle prices ,strengthened in January and to the end-of May, averaged$97.19 per cwt. for Choice steers at Toronto, $3.35 above list year's level and $1.80 over Omaha. These higher prices' were as- sociated with an increase in total beef slaughter, including an eight percent increase in fed cattle slaughter (Choice and Good car- • casses combined). Notwithstanding' the relation- ship of fed cattle prices be- tween Canada and the U.S., and the fact that domestic fed cattle , slaughter in the lastahalf of 1972 can be expected, to average above , 1971, there, are grounds for fair- • ly strong fed cattle prices in Canada during the last half of 1972, probably. ayeraging above, the $34.75 for Choice steers at,- Toronto—during the last half of 1971. In both Canada and the feeder cattle demand was ex- . eeptionally strong in early 1972 with prices at the highest level on record' for any winter-spring period. Feeder cattle prices during the last half of the year will be strongly influenced by the trend in fed cattle pricee. With a larger 1972 calf crop, the potential supply of feeder 6 cattle for fall movements into "feedlots will be greater. The normal seasonal pattern would be for some price weakness dur- ing the fall period, especially if the 1972 calf crop shows a substantial increase.

Prices will be fairly stable for livestock and livestock products. Prides for fresh pro- duce will-depend largely on grow- ing conditions this year. Food prices in retail stores rose quite rapidly in the last half of 1971, and -prices con- tinued to advance in the first four months of 1972. Higher prices for all meats, dairy pro- ducts, fresh vegetables and 'for sugar at the farm and wholesale levels accounts for a large part of the rise of retail prices of recent months. Pork prices re- covered from the depressed lev- els of earlier months. Rising costs pressure throughout the food processing and merchandising industries also contributed to the advance of food prices, and these pres- sures show no signs of slacken- ing in 1972. Places of livestock and live- stock products are expected to remain relatively stable because of adequate supplies in relation to market requirements. The adverse effects of rising food prices have been completely offset by a 'more rapid rise in the level of disposable incomes of most families in Canada. In 1972, Canadian food expenditures will continue to expand by about six to seven percent. They will account for a slightly smaller percentage of consumer spending than in 1971 when consumers spent about 17 percent of their disposable incomes on food for use at home and.away from home. Farmers have been -attempt- ing to keep up to .the rising in- come levels of urban families. They have been expanding farm production at a fairly fast pace.- in 1971, the index of farm Pro- duction was 45 percent higher than in 1961, although population advanced by only 19 percent. This higher production occ- urred on 366,000 farms in 1971, compared with 481,000 in 1961, a reduction of 24, per cent. guest and usher at the Johns and Webber wedding on Saturday, at Elimville United Church and later at the reception.
