Strategic Review of the Scottish Pig Industry
Over the last two years there have been rapid increases in feed costs and disruption caused by Foot & Mouth Disease during 2007. The Scottish Government directed Quality Meat Scotland to oversee a strategic review of the pig industry.
SAOS assembled a team of specialists to undertake this task during the summer of 2008. A full report was produced in August covering economics, processing facilities, health status, environment and farm performance. You can download an extract of the report containing the recommendations and action plan.
