EU Per Capita Pig Meat Consumption
Figures on per capita meat consumption are no longer published by the EU. No consistent figures on consumption levels are available elsewhere. The figures below are based on calculations taking the balance between pig meat production, imports and exports. They do not take account of any movements in stock levels. Therefore, while they should give a broadly accurate indication of consumption levels and trends, they should be treated with some caution.
