UK Poultry and Poultry Meat Statistics – June 2014
This release shows the latest monthly information on poultry statistics, including hatchery
output, slaughtering and meat production volumes.
Key points
The key results for June 2014 are given below:
- UK commercial layer chick placings were up 15% to 3.4 million chicks compared with June 2013. This indicates a future expansion in the size of the laying flock, once these chicks have matured into laying birds.
- The number of turkey eggs set in hatcheries and number of turkey poults which were placed for rearing have both reduced year on year by 7% and 17% respectively. This suggests reduced availability of turkeys in the coming months.
- UK broiler slaughterings were unchanged on a year earlier at 70 million birds.
- Total UK poultry meat production was 125 thousand tonnes, 1% lower than in June 2013.
