POPULATION1 AND PER CAPUT2 CONSUMPTION FOR DIFFERENT PRODUCTS FOR NINE DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
1 Population data (in million inhabitants) presented in this table are from FAO, adapted from UN [1994]. In AT2010 the UN 1990 estimates were used. The estimates of per caput consumption in kg per caput per year for all developing countries with or without China and centrally planned Asian countries differ slightly from the AT2010 forecasts due to differences in these population assumptions.2 For per caput consumption the period 1960-2010 FAO data and estimates as presented in Alexandratos (1995) were used. For scenarios covering the period 2010 - 2100 the rates of change proposed by Zuidema et al. (1994) were scaled to the 1990-2010 FAO estimates. After scaling the per caput consumption assumptions were corrected for some regions (see notes 3-7).
DEVELOPING INCLUDING CHINA AND C.P. ASIAN COUNTRIES
DEVELOPING EXCLUDING CHINA C.P. ASIAN COUNTRIES
3 East Asia: the per caput consumption for maize and sorghum/millet were assumed to be constant in the period 2010-2100. Milk consumption is assumed to increase to a level of about 10 kg per caput per year, and in addition consumption of milk-derived products is 50 g milk equivalents per day. A similar assumption was made for China 4.
CHINA AND CENTRALLY PLANNED ASIAN COUNTRIES4
4 China and Asian centrally planned countries: the decrease in the consumption of pork between 2010 and 2100 was removed. Milk consumption in a large part of China is very low. The milk consumption of about 2.5 kg milk per caput per year in 1960-1980 is the consumption of a small part of the total population calculated as an average for the whole region. The scenario is based on the assumption that the per caput consumption of milk-derived products will increase to 50 g milk per day, giving a total of close to 20 kg milk per year.
5 South Asia: the decrease to zero per caput food consumption of sorghum/millet for the period 2010-2100 was changed in a constant level of 7 kg per caput per year. Although vegetarianism currently dominates in South Asia, the increase in the meat consumption to ~ 10 kg meat per caput per year may be low compared to other regions with similar economic development.
6 Near East in Asia: the decrease in sheep & goat meat consumption between 2015 and 2100 was removed; consumption of sorghum/millet and of roots/tubers/plantain was assumed constant after 2010.
7 North Africa: the growth of the consumption of meat, milk and eggs was assumed equal to that of the Near East in Asia region.
8 Sub-Saharan Africa: the growth in per caput consumption of all meat products, eggs, milk and sorghum/millet is assumed to be 50% of the growth assumed by Zuidema et al. (1994) for total Africa.
9 Latin America: the decrease in mutton and goat meat consumption after 2010 is removed; consumption of sorghum/millet is assumed to be constant after 2010.

Interactions among livestock, crops and land use under intensified agricultural production can contribute to increased emission of a number of atmospheric pollutants. This bulletin presents various long-term scenarios of livestock-crop-land use interactions and their possible effects on greenhouse warming as well as the environmental effects related to crop and animal waste production. It describes the possible future magnitude of problems related to the use of animal feedstuffs and inputs of nutrients and will therefore be of interest to fertilizer specialists, agronomists and professionals dealing with rural environmental protection. |
