    Iran: Red meat production increases 39 percent in a month

    (MENAFN) The SCI's report said that beef and lamb had the lion's portion (56.4 percent) in the country's red meat production during the third month with 17,200 tons, followed by lamb and mutton with 10,500 tons, goat meat with 2,100 tons, and red meat from other livestock with 623 tons.

    The output of red meat in Iran reached 30,900 tons in the second month of the current Iranian calendar year (April 20-May 20), as previously announced by the SCI.

    Production of red meat in Iran stood at 94,900 tons in the last quarter of the past Iranian calendar year, representing 16 percent development compared to the same quarter in the previous year.

    Iran is among the top consumers of red meat in the West Asia region with lamb being the most required after.

    Nevertheless, the consumption per person is around a third of what is usually seen in countries like the U.S. and Australia, mostly because of the ban of pork in Islamic law.
