Rankings

Definition

Meat from animals slaughtered in the country in the calendar year, all species, in tonnes of carcass weight. FAOSTAT item "Meat; Total", the sum FAO calculates from the meat of each species, imported live animals included.

Carcass weight, bone included, so it is higher than the boneless weight in consumption statistics. FAO fills gaps in national reporting with its own estimates and imputations, which are marked as estimated, and revises past years when countries send new figures.
