Raising of swine and pigs
NACE v2.1 Code: A01.46
About raising of swine and pigs
NACE code 01.46 covers the raising of swine, commonly known as pigs. This industry plays a vital role in the global food supply chain, providing a significant source of protein and other essential nutrients. Pork production is a major agricultural activity, contributing to the livelihoods of farmers and supporting related industries such as 10.11 Meat processing and 46.23 Wholesale of live animals.
Production process
The raising of swine typically involves a combination of breeding, feeding, and housing techniques. Farmers carefully manage the breeding process to maintain healthy and productive herds. Pigs are fed a balanced diet of grains, proteins, and other nutrients to promote growth and development. Specialized housing facilities, such as climate-controlled barns, are used to provide a comfortable and safe environment for the animals.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the raising of swine include breeding stock, feed (e.g., grains, soy, and other protein sources), water, and specialized equipment such as feeding troughs, watering systems, and climate control systems. Farmers also rely on veterinary services and medications to maintain the health and well-being of their herds.
Production outputs
The primary output of the swine/pig raising industry is pork, which is then processed and distributed to various 10.11 Meat processing and 46.32 Wholesale of meat and meat products industries. Pork is a versatile meat used in a wide range of food products, from fresh cuts to processed items like sausages and ham. Additionally, by-products from pork production, such as hides and offal, may be utilized in other industries.
