Abstract

The gross agricultural production in Eastern Europe increased 20 percent between 1971 and 1976-78. The livestock sector grew faster than the crop sector causing a widening gap between domestic feed requirement and supply. The increasing feed imports together with higher prices of energy forced the countries to heavy borrowing. The larger current debt servicing obligations retard economic growth. Based on the present economic conditions a slow down in the rate of increase of the livestock sector is expected during 1981-85. .The projected annual rate of increase for total meat production is 2 percent. Based on projected total grain production and consumption Eastern Europe's net grain imports will be about 9.6 million tons and total protein meal import 5.4 million tons by 1985.
