(asked on 19th November 2018) - View Source
Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, how many game bird farms have more than (a) 20,000 and (b) 50,000 birds.
This question was answered on 22nd November 2018
The Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) do not hold accurate or reliable figures on the number of birds on game bird premises.
APHA do not maintain year on year statistics for game farms.
At the time of registration the owner of the birds will normally supply APHA with an estimate of the usual numbers likely to be held on the holding.
