3.1. Data description | |||
Statistics on eggs for hatching and farmyard poultry chicks are collected under (market) Regulation (EC) No 617/2008. They are the earliest available information to foresee production of poultry meat and eggs, as the numbers of chicks of various utilities placed in the farms of each Member State, i.e. the number of chicks placed by the hatcheries of this Member State increased by the net import of chicks. In Belgium, the regional authorities are responsible for the data collection as defined by Regulation (EC) No 617/2008. For the Walloon region, there is currently only 1 hatchery active. The Walloon region requests the figures from this hatcery every month and then sends them to the Department, which then compiles the national statistics.
The definition of chicks categories in the monthly survey is fully compatible with Regulation No 617/2008 External trade statistics are not used because of the delay of these data |
