publikationen (PDF)”. The slaughter of
organically reared cattle continued to increase
The
slaughter of cattle increased by 11 % 2013 compared with 2012. In 2013
15 % of the total slaughter of cattle consisted of cattle reared on
holdings applying organic production methods. Also the slaughter of organic
sheep increased. The increase is estimated to 6 % and in 2013 22 % of
the sheep slaughtered were reared on holdings applying organic production
methods. The number
of organic pigs and broilers is low in Sweden and as a consequence the organic
animal production is low. In 2013 only 2 % of the total slaughter of pigs
and 0.3 % of the slaughter of broilers came from animals reared on holdings
applying organic production methods. A small
increase in the organic milk production was recorded during 2013. The share of
organic milk production amounted to 13 % of total milk production which was
almost the same level as 2012. The organic
egg production in Sweden had a share of about 13 % of total egg
production. Organic egg delivered to wholesalers increased by 7 % in 2013. List of tables
