Increasing poultry production in Austria

Turkey meat is catching up

 In Austria, the signs on the poultry market point to growth. In the first quarter of this year, poultry meat slaughtered totaled 26.540 tons, up 7,5 percent from the first three months of 2003.

In the turkey market in particular, there was a significant increase in production: at almost 6.400 tons, the slaughterings from January to March of this year were almost 18 percent higher than the corresponding result for the previous year. This means that almost a quarter of all poultry slaughtered in Austria was in the turkey sector.

Die Hähnchenschlachtungen summierten sich im ersten Jahresviertel auf annähernd 20.200 Tonnen, das war gegenüber dem entsprechenden Vorjahreszeitraum ein Plus von 4,6 Prozent.
