Beef cow numbers and slaughter activity will see contraction continue in 2019 but with the pace mitigated by reduced cow slaughter, growth in the calf crop and increased import activity. The Canadian swine industry will look to rebound from the smaller pig crop and lower slaughter numbers of 2018. Stability of the Canadian swine herd in 2019 will result from growth of the pig crop and sow retention. Canada will continue to grow export activity to Asian-Pacific markets for beef and pork.
