Excerpt from The Wool Situation: August 1961 The outlook for the world wool industry for the coming marketing year is encouraging. World stocks of raw wool and wool products are relatively low. Prices are firm, with the trade expecting moderate increases in world prices with the opening of the 1961-62 marketing season. World wool production and consumption are at record high levels. Mill activity in most of the major manufacturing countries is be ginning to increase after declining during the latter part of 1960. Technological advances and increased promotional activity may partially offset the increasing inter-fiber competition. The domestic wool industry has partially recovered from the short-term recession of late 1960 and early 1961. Mill activity, although below year earlier levels, is increasing. Average prices received by producers are lower than last year at the same time. Imports of wool products are less than a year ago; exports, up moderately. Imports of raw wool are slightly above the relatively low level of the same period last year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
