Description
|
The survey is monthly carried out using a sample of public and private slaughterhouses.
It reveals the number of slaughtered animals, their live weights and dead weights for bovine animals, pigs, sheep and goats, according to the categories provided for by the European Community Regulation.
Starting from January 2018 the survey is partly direct (sheep and goats, pigs, equin and ostrich) and partly based on administrative data (bovine, bufaline); from 2021 also pigs are based on administrative data.
