Additional information
Please note that these weekly figures are estimated by AHDB and are subject to revision. AHDB calculates the weekly clean pig estimated slaughterings by upscaling the number of animals reported in the deadweight price surveys against the official Defra monthly slaughter statistics. In order to provide a robust an estimate as possible. Sow and boar slaughterings are based on an upscaling of AHDB's weekly sow and boar kill sample. AHDB may change the methodologies periodically based on information available at the time.
In April 2023, Defra revised the slaughter figures back to January 2021, due to an issue Defra identified in their previous methodology for calculating slaughter numbers. This revision means that the weekly AHDB estimated slaughter figures also changed accordingly.
