A Note on Soviet Per Capita Meat Consumption

David J Sedik

Comparative Economic Studies, 1993, vol. 35, issue 3, 39-48

Abstract: An examination of per capita meat consumption in Eastern Europe and the republics of the former USSR in 1990 reveals a relatively high consumption of meat compared to market economies with similar per capita incomes. Thus, cutbacks in the livestock sector in Russia may be warranted. Downsizing the livestock sector is part of a larger restructuring of Russian agriculture where production adjusts to domestic costs and demand.
