Statement
The Cattle Census is carried out every year in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1165/2008. The reference date is 1 December of every year. The sheep and goats census is carried out every year and is in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1165/2008. The reference date is 1 December of every year. The information has been compiled on the basis of records from the Bovine Register, which is under the control of the Veterinary Regulatory Directorate at the Civil Abattoir. Certain categories cannot be directly compiled from the Bovine Register and therefore specific co-efficients based on the Census of Agriculture of 2010 are used. The data collected is final and not normally subject to revision. More information may be accessed at: http://nso.gov.mt/metadata/reports.aspx?id=15. The pig census is carried out every year and is in accordance with Council Regulation No.1165/2008. The reference date is 1 December of each year. The small number of pig breeders does not allow for a sample survey to be carried out. Therefore, a headcount of all farms is taken. In order to obtain livestock numbers, a postal survey is undertaken. Non-respondents are contacted by telephone and efforts are made to contact every pig farm. The data collected is final and not normally subject to revision. More may be accessed at: Metadata: http://nso.gov.mt/metadata/reports.aspx?id=15
