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 Latvia, data on incubation are obtained via the monthly survey of hatcheries in line with the Annex III to the Regulation 617/2008.

Data  on incubation provide statistics on the activity of hatcheries (placed eggs, hatched chickens)  and foreign trade of chicks.

Data are collect at national level.
