Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Animal Fats: World Production and Trade
The increase in 1ard, tallow, and grease output from the 1935-39 average can also be accounted for by higher production in the Unit ed States and Europe-by the sharp rise in production during and since the war in the United States and by the postwar recovery of hog fat output and the gradual recovery of and grease production in Europe. For butter, too, World output has followed a pattern since the war: it increased in the immediate postwar years but declined in 1951 and 1952, partially due to a reduction in milk production and more fat arable alternative uses for milk, In the past 3 years butter (fat content) has made up about 35 percent of the estimated total production of animal fats; lard, about 40 percent; and tallow and grease, about 25 percent.
