Meat of geese, fresh or chilled

CPC v2.1 Code: 21123

About meat of geese, fresh or chilled

cpc code 21123 covers the production and trade of fresh or chilled meat from geese. Geese are a type of waterfowl that have been domesticated and raised for their meat, eggs, and feathers for centuries. The global goose meat industry plays a significant role in the broader poultry and livestock sectors, providing a versatile and flavorful protein source for consumers around the world.

Production process

The production of goose meat typically involves raising geese on specialized farms or in free-range environments. Geese are typically slaughtered at around 12-16 weeks of age, when they have reached their optimal size and weight. The meat is then processed, packaged, and distributed to wholesalers, retailers, and other end-users.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the goose meat industry include live geese, feed (such as grains, grasses, and other forage), water, and processing equipment. Farmers may also require land, housing, and other infrastructure to support the rearing and slaughter of the geese. Additionally, the industry relies on transportation, logistics, and cold chain management to ensure the safe and efficient delivery of the final product.

Production outputs

The primary output of cpc code 21123 is fresh or chilled goose meat, which can be used in a variety of culinary applications, such as roasting, grilling, or incorporating into dishes like stews, pies, and sausages. The meat may also be further processed into other products, such as 21124 Meat of geese, frozen, 21125 Goose fat, or 21126 Goose liver, which are covered under other cpc codes.
