Animal production

NACE v2.0 Code: A01.4

About animal production

NACE code 01.4 covers the animal production industry, which plays a vital role in the global economy. This sector encompasses the rearing and breeding of a wide range of livestock, including cattle, sheep, goats, horses, poultry, and other animals. The animal production industry is a significant contributor to the food supply chain, providing essential protein sources and other animal-derived products that are in high demand worldwide.

Production process

The main production techniques used in the animal production industry involve the careful management and care of livestock. This includes providing animals with adequate food, water, and shelter, as well as implementing disease prevention and control measures. Farmers and ranchers often utilize specialized equipment and facilities, such as barns, pens, and feeding systems, to optimize the health and productivity of their livestock.

Production inputs

The animal production industry requires a variety of inputs to function effectively. Key inputs include land for grazing and housing, feed and fodder (such as 01.1 Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities), veterinary services and medications, and skilled labor to manage the animals and maintain the production facilities.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the animal production industry are meat, dairy products, eggs, and other animal-derived goods. These outputs are then consumed by a range of other industries, including 10.1 Processing and preserving of meat and production of meat products, 10.5 Manufacture of dairy products, and 10.3 Processing and preserving of fruit and vegetables. The animal production industry also generates byproducts, such as hides, wool, and manure, which can be used in other manufacturing processes or as fertilizers.
