About meat; of goats, fresh, chilled or frozen

HS code 020450 covers the trade of fresh, chilled, or frozen goat meat. Goat meat is a significant agricultural product, particularly in regions with large goat-rearing populations. It is an important source of protein and a staple in many cuisines around the world. The global goat meat industry plays a crucial role in supporting the livelihoods of small-scale farmers and contributing to food security in developing countries.

Production process

Goat meat production typically involves raising goats on pastures or in small-scale farms. The animals are carefully bred and fed a diet of grasses, hay, and supplementary feed. When the goats reach the desired age and weight, they are humanely slaughtered, and the meat is processed, packaged, and distributed for consumption.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the goat meat industry include land for grazing, feed (such as hay, grains, and supplements), water, and livestock management equipment. Specialized slaughtering and meat processing facilities, as well as transportation infrastructure, are also essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 020450 is fresh, chilled, or frozen goat meat. This meat is consumed directly by households or used as an ingredient in various culinary preparations. The goat meat industry also generates byproducts, such as hides and offal, which may be used in other industries, such as 410120 Raw skins of goats or kids, 050400 Guts, bladders and stomachs of animals, and 150410 Fats and oils and their fractions, of fish or marine mammals.
