US Meat Industry at a Glance

2010 U.S. Meat Industry at a Glance

The American Meat Institute (AMI) released an updated version of its U.S. Meat Industry at a Glance document and pocket guide to reflect the most recent data available for 2010. It provides the most up-to-date information, facts and figures about U.S. meat and poultry in four areas: production, economic impact, nutrition and trade.

The U.S. Meat Industry at a Glance, 2010 is available electronically on AMI's Web site and can be folded into a pocket-sized guide for ease of use and convenience. The document is available at http://bit.ly/cFrn7b.

Highligts include: Dietary guidlines for meat consumption, beneficial nutrients found in meat, statistics on the value of meat to the US economy, and average US male and female consumption trends. Really neat graph shows that the US spends less on food than any other country in the world.
