This <br />soymeal consumption is then multiplied by 1.27 to convert it to bean equiv- <br />alents. <br /> <br />After per capita food consumption has been calculated in consumption units <br />as pounds. total food use is calculated using the equation: <br />FOODUS(I) = POP * PERCAP(I)/CVFAC(I) <br /> <br />where: <br /> <br />FOODUS(I) = standard units of the supply <br />and utilization tables of U.S. Department of <br />Agricultural Statistics <br />POP = total U. S. popul ation <br />PERCAP(I) = per capita consumption in consumer <br />~nits of pounds <br />CVFAC(I) = the conversion factor from consumption <br />accounts to production accounts <br /> <br />(The tobacco food use equation is modified by a mul tipl ication of <br />adult population instead of the total population as indicated in the <br />equation above.) Determining the constant price demand for livestock pro- <br />vides the information necessary to calculate price demand for feeds. The <br />quantity of 1 ivestock and 1 ivestock products are calcul ated by using the <br />conversion factor of carcass weight to 1 ive weight mul tipl ied by the supply <br /> <br />II-20 <br />
