I. INTRODUCTION Hides and skins are used in a broad range of end-products,of which the most cportant is footwear.However, the importance of garments and other personal leather goods as end-uses has recently grown considerably.Natural leather products have acquired the reputation of a high-qualityconsumer good and seem likely to retain this reputation in the face of synthetic substi- tutes. In the past two decades considerablechanges have taken place in the geographicaldistribution of productionand censumptionof leather goods. Dur- ing the 1960s there was a shift in the location of and footwear indus- tries from the industrialcountries of North America and Western Europe to the less industrialized countries of Mediterranean Europe. In the 1970C fast expanding tanaing and leather manufacturingindustries have developed in the Far East and Latin America. These latter industries have catered for domestic leather goods consumption as well as, and more importantly for, the export market. As the regional distribution of tanning and leather manufacturing industrieshas changed, so have the internationalflows of raw hides and skins exports.Theimportance of Latin American countries as sources of raw hides and skins exports has diminished as their domestic processing and manufacturing has grown--mostlyunder the artificial constraints provided by taxes or bans on the esport of raw hides and skins and tariffs on imports of finished leather goods. Whereas developing countriesas a whole previously were net exporters of raw hides and skins and net importersof proces-ed leather this trade flow has now been reversed. This reversal has led to keen competition for raw materials between the newly expanding tanning industries in developing coun- tries and the established tanning industries in developed countries-- especially Japan, Italy, South Korea and Spain. This competitionwas central to the large increase in hides and skins prices in early 1979 and the subse- quent sharp fall which lasted until June 1980. Supplies of raw hides and skins nad been declining since 1977, as the cattle cycle moved into its downswing. At the same time there was strong competitionfor raw materialsfrom the expanding processing industriesin the developingcountries as well as the establishedindustries in Italy and the February 1981 I-2

Far East. The Soviet Union and Eastern Europe were also heavy buyers in this period. The market collapsedwhen the recession of 1979-80 became apparent. In the long-term it must be expected that hides and skins prices will continue to fluctuate widely, due to the highly Inelastic nature of supply. For this reason it is unwise to put heavy weight on the perioda of high prices such as experienced in 1979. As expanding demand continues to press ou this unresponsive supply, the result should be a favorable trend in real prices. However, in the medium term price competition among intermediate and end products should be severe as the iewly expanding leather goods industries compete for a share of the market in an environment of slow growth particilarlyamong the industrial countries. From the supply side there will be the price-depressingeffect of the increase in catt'.-slaughterings, which may last for the next 3-4 years--the likely period of upswing in the present cattle cycle.

II. THE PRODUCT A. Characteristics Hides and skins are produced as by-productsof the meat industry.Raw hides and skins are characterized )y a substantial amount of heterogeneity. Therefore, in assessing the benefits derived from a project which produces hides and skins it is imQortant to take into account the size and quality of the final product. This non-uniformityresults from the followingfactors: (a) Post slaughterdefects, e.g. poor flsying (flesh removal) techniques; (b) Branding of live cattle (a common practice for identifying ownershipof cattle); (c) Applicationof differenthide curing techniques;and (d) The utilizationof various tanning agents at the processing stage. In addition to the aforementionedfactors, the health status of the animal also affects the qiualityof the final product. Hides and skins from animals raised on low nutritional diets will be smaller and of inferior quality. Likewise the prevalence of parasites (e.g. mites, lice and ticks) result in lower quality hides. The quality of hides and skins produced by industrializedcountries tends to be of a higher quality than those produced by the developingcountries (this differentialcan be observed in the export unit values for hides from cattle, /lamband /kids). These quality variationsmake the interpretationof data on volumes and prices of hides and skins a tenuous exercise. They also help to explain why there are no internationalstandards for grade classificationfor hides and skins or for leather. B. End Products/Substitutes End uses for hides and skins include footwear, and other articles and products--allproducts for which the income elasticityof demand must be relativelyhigh. Leather has retained its competitive position vis-a-vis synthetic substitutes. It would seem that leather goods and synthetic substituteshave different segments of the market, with leather products holding to their status of being superior consumer goods. At the moment there is no sign that February 1981 II-2 synthetic products will be produced that will be closer substitutes. However, synthetic use for footwear soling and material has continued to increase at the expense of leather. In the industrialized countries sone of the trends in leather utilization include: a. Personal leather goods have been absorbing a larger volume of leather; b. A rapid increase in leather utilixed for garments; c. A decline in the utilization of leather as a footwear soling material; and d. Use of leather as a lining material for footwear has fallen slowly. In the United States, for example, in 1961 footwear accounted for about 85% of all leather used. In 1977 footwear absorbed about 56%, garments about 19%, gloves and handbags about 15%, belts and small leather goods almost 6%, and the remaining 4% was used in luggage,upholstery and other articles. Irnthe developingcountries rising incomes and increased urb-nization has led to a growing demand for footwear. However, demand growth for leather garments and other leather articles has not been notable--particularlyin tropical climates. C. Processing/Technology After removal of the hide or from the animal carcass the first stage of processing involves flaying and curing. The rc=oval of the flesh is followed by one of the following curing nrocesses: (a) Wet salting, which involves ..mersion of hides in brine-- this process is poMular in large-scaleslaughter plants; (b) Light salting, which is suit.ble in temperate climates; (c) Dry salting, which involves heavily treating hides and skins with salt and subsequentlyatmospheric drying; (d) Suspensiondrying, which is a process of stretching the hides and skins manually; (e) Ground drying, which entails pegging the hides and skins to the ground without using salt. February 1981 II-3

P The proportion of hides and skins cured by the different processes varies widely from Industrialto developingcountries. Dry salting, sucpensior, drying and ground drying are more common in the developing countries. At the tannery the first processing stage is rehydration and/or removal of salinity. After depilationand chemical and mechanical tLeatuent, the pelt is treated with 8cid and salt; this Is referred to as the pickled stage. The next level of processing Involves prilary tannage. Hides and skins for footwear soles are tanned with vegetable extracts, while those for uppers, garments, and other personal leather goods are tanned with chromium salts. Internationeltrade in the wet tanned stage is referred to as "wet blue chrome". To obtain a "dried crust" leather, the hides and skins are further treated chemically and mechanically; this material then re%iires surface colorationand finishing operations.

III. HIUES AND FKINS PRODUCTION A. Cyclical Factors A useful short-term indicator of world hide production is the slaughter rate for North America, Latin America, Ocear.iaand Western Europe, which together account for approximately70% of total output of bovine hides and skins on a green-weightbasis. Whereas in the short term the rate of slaughter determines supply, in the long term the size and sex compositionof the total inventorywill be importantdeterminants of future hide supply. Since the supply of hides and skins is a function of the slaughter rate and the total number of animals, it is important to understandhow the cattle cycle functionsand its role in determininghides and skins supply. L.S. Jarvis 1/ who has made e significant coutributionto the study of the cattle market, provides perhaps the best explanation of the intricate details of the cycle. Increases in beef prices create an incentive for herders to increase production. Tncrease~dproduction can only take place in the long run by increasingthe size of the breeding herd and/or by withholding animals for further fattening.Retention of animals becomes more profitable the lower are feed costs Ln relation to meat prices. Consequently,feed costs can play an important role in determining the length and size of the upswing in cattle numbers. While producers continue to outbid consumers ii the market place, the animal remains in the herd and is considered a productive asset. The supply of hides and skins will thereforebe reduced as long as producers are increasingthei capital stock. In the short run the slaughter ra-e will declin- for ail categories of cattle and the decline will persist for some time, especially for breeding stock, as the biological reproduction rate is slow. The bidding between consumers and producers will also force the price of cattle, meat and consequentlyhides and skins even higher.

1/ L.S. Jarvis, "Cattle as Capital Goods and Ranchers as Portfolio Managers: An Applicationto the ArgentineCattle Sector", Journal of Political Eco- nomy, 82(1974): 489-520. February 1981 111-2

While the reductionxin the slaughter rate further inreases the current price of beef it also tends to increase the future supply of beef and hence hides and skins. The upswing in hides and skins production will not be apparent, however, until increased cattle production takes place and these animals will be brought to the slaughter houses. The slaughter rate, and therefore the cyclical changes in the supply of cattle hides and skins lags about two years behind changes in the total stock of cattle. The cyclical variation which is observable in the US cattle herd and the lagged relationship between the inventory and the slaughter rate can be seen in Figure III-Al. The importance of this cyclical behavior for hides and skins supplies is obvious. However, a further complexitv arises because of the different cyclical behavior of the major beef producing countries. For example, the average cycle length has been found to be about 7 years in Latin America and Oceania, 7 to 8 years in the EC and Western Europe and 10 years in North America. When beef production cycles peak simultaneously in the major producing regions, the ramificationsin the market place become magnified, as in the 1970s. In the early part of the 1970s decade a synchronizationof the cyclicaldownswing in cattle numbers and slaughter rates in several countries, along with other factors on both the demand and supply sides led in 1972/73 to very high prices. The recovery phase in the beef cycle in the major producing countries also kept in step so that over the period 1974/76 inventoriesand slaughter rates peaked--leadingto sharply lower prices. It present'lylooks as though the reduction in cattle numbers since 1976 bottomed out through 1979 and 1980 and a rebuilding phase will take place over the next 3-4 years. However, because the rise in beef prices in 1979 was not carried through in 1980 the recovery phase now looks like being relatively slow and small. Paralleling these cyclical trends in bovine slaughter, hides and skins production was at a peak in 1977. The downward trend since 1978 should continue at least through 1981. B. Production Structure- World Shares by IndustrialCountries The United States is the largest producer of hides and skins (representingapproximately 25% of total production in most recent years), TO 1979 Figure II1-A; CYCLICAL BEHAVIOR OF US CATTLE NUMBERS AND SLAUGHTER RATE 1950

followed by the USSR and the European Community (EC). These two countries 6 along with the EC account for 55% of total production. Bovine hides are the m.jor category of hides and skins production, representing9.. of the total in 1977. While bovine production is concentrated in the developing countries (67%), only 40% of world bovine hide production takes place in these countries (see Table III-Bl). This reflects in part the lower level of nutritionand animal husbandry managementand less skilled hide recovery and processing techniques,but it may reflect other, more important, factors such as: (i) domestic (on-) use of hides which does not get reflected in national statistics;and (ii) heavy disincentives(taxes) on the recovery of hides which exist in some countries. ProductionBy IndividualCategories Cattlehides. Total world production of cattlehides (Figures III-Bl and III-B2) has been on a continual upward trend since the early 1960s. The industrialized countries have accounted for over 57% of total world production for the period shown 1961-77, while the developing countries' share has declined trom approximately 42% in the 1960s to less than 40% by 1977. Sheepskins/Lambskins. and lambskin production has increased at an annual growth rate of 2% in the developing countries and declined b- 0.8% in the industrial ccuntries from 1962/64-1974/76. The industrialized countries have been the major producers of sheepskins, accounting for over 60% of total world production since the early l9bOs. The developing countries have increased their share of the market from 30% in the 1960s to almost 40% by 1977 (Figures III-B3 and III-B4). Goatskins/Kidskins. In the goatskin category, the developing countries constitute over 85% of total world production. The industrialized countries have been of marginal importance in this market, with production remaining fairly constant in the last two decades and their percentage share of the market even declining (Figures III-B5 and III-B6). Tables III-B2, III-B3 and III-B4 show individual country data on hides and skins production for the years 1961-65 (average) and 1966 to 1979 (annual). The data have been compiled by FAO The attlehides and calfskins data are presented on a wet salted weight basis, while the sheepskins and lambskins and goatskins and kidskins are on a dry weight basis. w *S.*.

IV. HIDES AND SKINS TRADE A. Exporters In 1978, the principal exporters of bovine hides and skins were the United States (accountingfor approximately42%), the European Community and Australia (which has been the second largest exporter since 1971). These key exporters represent 80X of total world exports. Other important exporters include France, W. Germany, Netherlands,UK, New Zealand, South Africa and Canada. For European countries, trade represents primarily intra-EC trade. Developed countries accounted for 93% of bovine hides and skins exports and 71% of sheep and lambskins exports in 1977 while the developing countries exported 89% of total world exports of goat and kidskins (see Table IV-Al). The United States prominent position as the largest exporter of hides and skins reflects a number of important factors: the declining demand the domestic shoe industry, the growing slaughter rate, and the increasing use of synthetic leather. The ratio of exports to total domestic production has increased substantiallysince the early 1960s when it was 25%. The ratio was about 47% during the early 1970s, 60% in the period 1976-78 and 70% in 1979. One of the most significant developments in the hides and skins market has been the changing structure of trade. In an attempt to encourage domestic processing of raw hides and skins, the developing countries have imposed various trade restrictions. Consequently, countries which were formerly important producers/exportersof raw bovine hides and skins have become net importers of the raw product and net exporters of leather and leather manufactures.This phenomenonis illustrated in Figures IV-Al, IV-A2 and IV-A3 which depict the declining export volumes of cattle, sheep and goat hides from developingcountries, despite an increase in domestic productionof hides and skins. These developing countries which have encouraged domestic hides and skins processing, while discouraging exporting of the unprocessed products, include Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil, Colombia, India, Pakistan, China, Bangladesh, Morocco and Argentina (which has recently relaxed some of the restrictions). This changing trade structure has resulted in retaliatory export controls or subsidiesor import restrictionsby both the industrialand e

These export controls have aggravated the fluctuations 6 in internationalprices. The recent expansion of hide processing capacity in the developing countries has led to substantialover-capacity in the present economic envir- onment and had a dramatic impact on the prices of hides and skins during 1979 and 1980. Prices reached record high levels early in 1979 because supplies were low due to the reduction in cattle inventories and slaughter rates and the restrictionson exports, while the newly establishedprocessing facilities were stimulatingdemand. But then demand was suddenly reduced in anticipation of the worldwide recession and prices fell by over or -half (Argentina's announced relaxation of its export ban from October ., 1979 also had some impact). Tables IV-A2, IV-A3 and IV-A4 show country-specificdata on exports of cattlehides and calfskins, sheepskins and lambskins and goatskins and kidskins for the years 1961-65 (average)and 1966 to 1979 (annual).These data which have been compiled by FAO are shown on a weight basis. From the same source exorts on a value are also available. B. Importers The principal importersof hides and skins are Italy, Japan and South Korea. Italy surpassed Japan in 1976 and has retained its position as the largest importer of bovine hides and skins, taking 19% of total world imports in 1977 and possibly about 25% in 1979 (Italy also took 20% of total world imports of sheep and lambskinsin 1977 and 33% of goat and kid skins imports). In addition to the aforementionedkey importers, Taiwan, Mexico, Romania, Spain, Yugoslavia and Canada are also important. Other sizable importers include Poland, Czechoslovakia,France, W. Germany, the Netherlands,UK and Sweden. As can be seen from Table IV-Bl, in 1977 countries in the Western European region in imported 48% of total world imports of cattlehides and calfskins,77% of sheepskinsand lambskinsand 63% of goatskins and kidskins. Tables IV-B2, IV-B3 and IV-B4 show individual country data for imports of hides and skins for the years 1961-65 (average)and 1966 to 1979 (annual). .

V. RIDES AND SKINS PRICES Except in countries such as India, where cattle are associatedwith religious practices, hides and skins account for only a relatively small proportion of the total market value of the anisals. Being by-products, therefore, their supply is largely independent of price& but reflects mainly changes in the prices of meat or . Changes in the prices of hides and skins should, however, have some impact on the rate of recovery from animals which die from natural causes. This latter form of production is mainly confined to the less developed countries where the opportunity cost of labor is low and particularly to India where cattle hides are mainly producet by recovery from fallen animals. Because of its by-productnature therefore, the supply of hides and skins is likely to be highly inelastic;which means in turn that prices are likely to be highly variable in response to changes in supply (slaughterrates) and demand (mainly cyclical influences). As hides and skins are by-products of the livestock industries, developments in the world meat economy have a considerable bearing on their supply and hence their price. The world's livestock industries, especially * beef, have been characherizedby a high degree of instabilityover the past 10 years. A major factor was the approximate synchronizationof the cattle cycle in all major producing areas, which in the early 1970s led to simultaneous reductionsin hide supplies from the major suppliers.The effect on prices can be observed in Figure V-Al.a/V-Al.b where hides and skins prices rose considerablyin 1972 and 1973. In 1974-75 the worldwide recession restricted demand for clothing and footwear at the same time as cattle slaughterings peaked. This led to the lowest prices in real terms for several years. Another downswing in hide production after 1976 saw prices rise again in 1978 and 1979. In the medium term vigorous price competition for interm_diate and end products is likely to continue as the newly expanding leather goods industriescompete for a share of the market in an environment of slow growth, particularly among the industrialcountries. The price-depressingeffects of this depressed demand on hides and skins prices will be accentuated by the fact that for the next 3-4 years cattle slaughteringswill be increasingin e the upswing of the cattle cycle. In the long term it must be expected that Figure V-l(a): CURRENT AND CONSTANT PRICE Figure V-1(b): CURRENTAND CONSTANTPRICE INDICES FOR US HEAVY STEER HIDES, INDICES FOR AUSTRALIN HIDES AND F.0.B., 1971 - 1980 SKINS EXPORTS, 1971 - 1979

hides and skins prices will continue to fluctuate widely, due to the highly inelastic nature of supply. The restraints on trade in leather goods by both developed and developing countries must also accentuate these price swings as demand is curtailed during periods of economic recession. Rowever, as expanding deum_d coutimoe to press against the unresponsive supply, there should be a favorable trend In real prices for hides and skins as well as for leather goods.

VI. TECHNICALAND STATISTICALISSUES While the value of international trade in hides and skins and intermediate products was approximatelyUS$6,500m. in 1977, the statistical base is poorer than for most other agriculturalcommodities. Comparable hides and skins data for the major producing countries is either non-existentor inadequate for most analytical work. This lack of Internationallyrecognized standards or grades is due primarily to the heterogeneous nature of the product. As previously mentioned, hides and skins differ in weight, size and methods of preparation.Hides and skins can vary in size and weight by up to 100% from country to country. Furthermore, compilation of statistics is complicatedby the multiplicityof intermediateproducts and the wide range of end products. The criteria for classifying leather products are not internationallyuniform; leathermay be classified according to animal origin, tanning process, potential end use or weight. Finished leather and hides and skins statistics may show data expressed in "semi-tanned"or "wet blue" (or .chrome")state. Of the various means of aggregating output, the "numerical"measure ignores the size differences.Measurement by "weight" ignores the d fferences in curing techniques (i.e., a "wet salt2d" hide will weight much more heavily than an "air dried" hide due to the water content); and the "surface area" concept, which may be the most useful, suffers from the lack of a standardizationof differencesin quality of hides and skins. The FAO is currently engaged in an attempt to bring about a standardizationof data collectionon hides and skins production and trade. February 1981 VI-2
