Meat is one of the most basic parts of an individual’s balanced diet. A major source of proteins and other very important nutrients has a wide demand and consumption over the map. Every country and every continent has its respective statistics for the meat requirements. The demand for meat is primarily based on economic status as well has climatic effects in each country. Several studies, researches, surveys and detailed reports over the years have concluded the demand and consumption of meat in different countries of the world. Let’s zoom into these surveys and reports to understand the meat statistics.
AS stated earlier, wealth and economy of a country are directly linked to the consumption of meat for example if we were to research wholesale meats Melbourne we would find large sources of quality meat ready for public. Developing countries or under-developed countries, unfortunately, have the minimum demand and exposure to meat. On the other hand, developed countries with boosting the economy and overflowing treasuries welcome an abundant amount of meat in all forms to their land. All the surveys and studies show a detailed insight into how a poor country such as Ethiopia and a country known for its wealth such as Australia and the USA consume meat based on their income. Many local, national and international reports are confined to this topic mainly discussing the outcomes.
According to the report of BBC, the latest report subjected to the demand, requirement, and consumption of meat was brought to the papers and screens in 2013. This report recorded the statistics of all countries around the world and summarized the information. Stretched over the entire global map, this report shows that the highest consumption of meat is made by none other than Australia and the USA. This doesn’t surprise anyone because the economy of both countries is ideal. They keep moving forward in every aspect of the economy. With no financial decline or economic destruction, it is easy to score first on the report card of meat consumption.
Next in line is Brazil and Canada. Both have tough competition. With a slight difference, Brazil holds a better position than Canada. Earlier in the 2000s, Brazil had a poor consumption of meat but later it took flight and reached the topped crossing all countries. As far as Canada is concerned, don’t we all know about the current financial conditions of Canada? We are all familiar with the outstanding performance of Canada’s treasury. With nearly no shadow over its economy, the public has been consuming meat throughout the years. Unlike Brazil, it didn’t introduce meat recently into their diet. In fact, with a climate that touches -30 degrees Celsius, it is necessary for them to consume meat to keep them warm.
Talking about the UK which stands next in line, the survey before 2013 was held in 2000. In 13 years, nothing much has changed for the UK. Meat consumption doesn’t show major fluctuations. The kingdom shows a generous supply for its people. People have been consuming enough supply of meat for a long time. From 1961, when the first survey about meat consumption was recorded, the statistics show the same supply in 2013. The statistics range between 70-80 kg consumption of meat per person.
