 CHICKEN INDUSTRY PERFORMANCE REPORT i

EXPLANATORY NOTES
This semi-annual Industry Performance Report on chicken
presents the industry situation in terms of inventory by type of chicken
and age classification; volume of production; and monthly average
prices at farmgate, wholesale and retail levels.

The Bureau of Agricultural Statistics (BAS) releases this report

every 15th of September covering January to June data of the current
year as reference period.

The Livestock and Poultry data system BAS is supported by

two (2) major surveys namely:

2) The Backyard Livestock and Poultry Survey (BLPS) covers

one (1) replicate sample of the Palay and Corn Production
Survey (PCPS) consisting of 9,700 sample households in 673
sample barangays nationwide; and,
3) The Commercial Livestock and Poultry Survey (CLPS)
covering about 545 sample layer farms and 874 broiler
commercial farms and contract growers. Commercial poultry
farms are those farms with a population of at least 1,000
broilers, 500 layers or a combination of 100 broilers and 100
layers.

Both surveys for chicken are simultaneously conducted every

quarter in all provinces.

Another survey that supports the statistical requirement of the

livestock and poultry sector is the Survey of Abattoirs and Dressing
Plants (SADP). This is also known as Survey of Animals Slaughtered
in Abattoirs and Dressing Plants. This covers around 105 accredited
dressing plants and non-accredited or Locally Registered Meat
Establishments (LRME) nationwide and is undertaken in coordination
with the National Meat Inspection Service (NMIS).
