Agriculture Canada economists say these trends will continue into 1987. The North American cattle industry had unexpected increases in supplies in 1986 because of the USDairyTermination Pro- gram. However, based on current trends favoring herd rebuilding, together with reduced inventories on farms, a downturn in North American production is expected beginning in the fall of 1986 and continuing through 1987. The USDA predicts a two per cent decline in beef production in the fourth quarter of 1986 and further quarterly year to year decreases through 1987, This will result in an overall decrease next year 'of around seven per cent. The biggest decline in the US will be of non -fed slaughter cattle. However, decreases in fed beef production are also SHROPSHALL Most sincere thanks to my family and friends who brought food to the house, did household chores and kept the girls both before and after David's arrival.

This annual rate of growth is significantly below the growth rates of previous two years -10.8 per cent and 9.9 per - cent in 1985 and 1984. The limited growth in 1986 was due to under -utilization of quota available by all provinces. However, the economists expect domestic consumption to grow by about 7.5 per cent in 1987 in contrast to about 3.5 per cent in 1986. Domestic production is forecast. to grow by nine per cent over 1986 to 512, million kilograms. Global imports will be- set at about 30.8 million kilograms.
