4. Introduction to Global Meat Industry
Livestock production is growing rapidly as a result of the
increasing demand for animal products
Global meat production and consumption will rise from
233 million tonnes in year 2000 to 300 million in year 2020
Over the last few decades, the increasing demand has
been largely met by the world wide growth in intensive
livestock production, particularly poultry
This is expected to continue as real income grows in the
emerging economies
4
5. Introduction to Global Meat Industry
Global meat (beef, pork, poultry) exports have grown
over 40 percent in less than 10 years, with 2014
forecast at another record on rising incomes and
stronger demand
Beef and broiler meat are
expected to reach new
records and pork is
forecast at near record
levels
5
6. Introduction to Global Meat Industry
Mounting demand from East Asia is expected to lift
beef and pork significantly
For broiler meat, growth continues from the Middle
Eastern and Sub-Saharan African regions
Broiler meat demand is expanding at a faster rate
because it is highly price competitive with other meat
proteins
6
7. Global Meat Industry : Beef & Veal
Global production for 2014 is forecast up marginally at
58.6 million tons as most major producers are
expected to benefit from cheaper feed supplies and
rising import demand (mostly from China and Hong
Kong)
However, the United States is forecast to drop 6
percent because cattle inventories continue to shrink
Global consumption forecast slightly above last year’s
record, at 57.0 million tons, while international trade is7
8. Global Meat Industry : Beef & Veal
Exports are forecasted at 9.2 million tons, expanding
24 percent in just 5 years, with Brazil and India
accounting for most of that growth.
8
9. Global Meat Industry : Beef & Veal
Strong demand for dairy products encourages
continued expansion in the bovine herd, as higher
dairy prices spur the development of more commercial
farms
As a result, the herd forecast to grow 1 percent to
almost 330 million head
9
10. Global Meat Industry : Pork
Global pork production for 2014, continuing its decade
long expansion at a fairly consistent rate, is projected
at a record 108.9 million tons on lower expected feed
costs and growing demand
10
11. Global Meat Industry : Broiler Meat
For 2014, global production continues to hit new
records surging 18 percent in just five years
Global exports have now expanded by over 25 percent
in the past five years, with more than 80 percent of
that growth attributed to Middle Eastern and Sub-
Saharan African demand
11
13. Introduction to Indian Meat Industry
The livestock sector is an important component of Indian
agriculture & India has a huge livestock population
Efficient utilisation of these resources including production
and utilisation of livestock products is important to earn
increased returns and sustain livestock production
activities
During the last three to four decades, India has witnessed
the green, white, yellow and blue revolutions
The time has come to realise one more revolution i.e.
red/pink revolution in the form of meat production.13
14. Introduction to Indian Meat Industry
In fact, in spite of big potential because of large livestock
population, the meat industry in India has not taken its due
share
The present production of meat is estimated at 6.27
million tons in 2010 , which is 2.21% of the world's meat
production
The contribution of meat from buffalo is about
23.33%, while cattle contributes about 17.34%, sheep
4.61%, goat 9.36%, pig 5.31%, poultry 36.68% and other
species 3.37%
14
15. Introduction to Indian Meat Industry
The compounded average growth rate (CAGR) during the
last two decades works out to be 4.5%
It is noticed that about 10.6% cattle, 10.6% buffaloes,
24.1% sheep, 58.7% goats, 95.0% pigs and 190.0%
chicken are slaughtered each year
The value of meat and by-products is Rs 79,889 crore
including skin and hides, while the export value of meat
and meat products work outs to be more than Rs 6,000
crore in the year 2009-10
The contribution of buffalo meat accounts for more than
75% of total exports/foreign earnings15
17. Slaughter House
The meat animals are slaughtered in specially
constructed establishment/place/premises/building
wherein food animals are slaughtered for production of
meat and slaughter by-products with licensing from the
concerned authority is called as slaughter-house
Modern abattoir is also a slaughter-house where
animals are slaughtered under humane and hygienic
conditions for production of wholesome and safe meat
for human consumption
17
18. Slaughter House
Recently, "meat plant" is the word which has been
introduced in the place of "slaughter houses" and
"abattoirs" for following reasons
To obviate the bad feelings about animal slaughter
To denote factory system of operations by which the
animals are handled humanely and the total operations
are done hygienically and methodologically
Many a times, in a forward integration manner which
include operations like carcass cutting, production of
custom-designed retail and lean cuts, their packaging and
dispatch
18
19. Slaughter House – Evolution
Initially, slaughtering was a backyard proposition
Every meat trader used to slaughter his food animals in
the space adjacent to his selling premises
Slaughter operations produced lot of blood and animal
wastes and, if these are not cleaned properly, they would
stink because they are all perishable materials of organic
origin
As awareness about the implications of meat on human
health grew and the deleterious effects on the
environment were realised more and more, governments
considered "meat inspection" as one of their obligations to
the society
19
20. Slaughter House – Evolution
Centralised premises were constructed for slaughter of
food animals
Acts and ordinances were promulgated on meat
inspection to the effect that sale of carcasses and offal's
meant for human consumption should have been
produced only from animals slaughtered in these special
premises and passed through meat inspection procedures
Backyard slaughtering was banned and slaughter houses
came into existence
Existing conditions of slaughter-houses for domestic
supply
The existing condition in the majority of the traditionally
20
21. Modern slaughter-house concept
It is therefore necessary to establish modern
slaughter-houses to bring improvements in
Meat-handling practices
Recovery and proper utilisation of by-products
Waste treatments for pollution control for re-organisation
and strengthening the meat industry on scientific line to
provide wholesome and safe meat to the domestic
consumer as well as to play a major role in international
meat trade/market.
21
22. Modern slaughter-house concept
The modern slaughter-houses need not to be large
ones
They can be small/medium/large to slaughter from 10
animals upto 10,000 animals on modern scientific
basis
They can cater the need of Indian consumer from rural
and urban areas
They can also meet the export demands to earn the
foreign currency to strengthen not only the meat22
23. Modern slaughter-house concepts
The slaughter house should be located away form
residential area
Access for animals ( Rail/ Road /Stock route) must be
assured
The slaughter house should be located where flooding is
impossible
An abundant supply of portable water as well as adequate
facilities for treatment & disposal is important
The land acquired for proposed slaughter house should
23
28. Indian Slaughter House
In India, there are about 4,000 registered slaughter
houses with the local bodies and more than 25,000
unregistered premises, where animals are slaughtered
to fulfill the demands of domestic consumers
There are about 20 integrated abattoirs-cum-meat
processing plants with state-of-the-art facilities for
hygienic meat production to meet the export demands,
where animals are received from the suppliers who
procure the animals from the weekly markets
Backyard slaughtering was banned and slaughter
houses came into existence
28
29. Indian Slaughter House
Acts and ordinances were promulgated on meat
inspection to the effect that sale of carcasses and
offal's meant for human consumption should have
been produced only from animals slaughtered in these
special premises and passed through meat inspection
procedures
29
30. Current scenario: Indian Slaughter
house
The existing condition in the majority of the
traditionally slaughter-houses is far from satisfactory
Most of the slaughter-houses are lacking basic
facilities like water, electricity, ventilation, drainage,
ceramic flooring, overhead rails and waste disposal.
Animals are slaughtered in traditional ways on the
open ground with/without further processing or
dressing on the floor/rails are the common practices in
a majority of the slaughter-houses30
31. Current scenario: Indian Slaughter
house
Carcasses are exposed to heavy contamination from
dung and soil. Situation is further aggravated by
inadequate ante-and post-mortem inspection
practices.
The quality of meat produced in these existing
slaughterhouses is unhygienic and carries high levels
of microbial contamination
Enormous quantities of by-products are not utilised
efficiently and economically31
32. Need of time: Indian Slaughter house
There is urgent need to upgrade these slaughter-
houses with minimum basic facilities such as
Water
Electricity
Inspection
Proper drainage
Good flooring
Finish of walls
Trained abattoir workers
Amenities for personnel in the slaughter-houses etc
32
33. Need of time: Indian Slaughter house
The aim of 'upgradation' of slaughter-houses should
be
Scientific, humane and hygienic slaughter of meat animals
To produce wholesome and safe meat for human
consumption
Proper utilisation of by-products
Proper disposal of waste emanating from he slaughter
operations.
33
35. Strengths
Huge livestock population
Halal methods of slaughter
Largest producer of buffalo meat & has 58% world’s
buffalo population
Cheap & Quality meat
Nearly organic meat
Less cholesterol in meat (buffalo meat)
Rinderpest-free and BSE-free
35
36. Weakness
Lack of scientific approach to rearing of meat animals
Un-organised nature of meat production and
marketing
Inadequate infrastructure facilities and poor post-
harvest management.
36
37. Opportunities
Advantage of liberalised world trade to benefit the
Indian meat industry by harmonisation of standards
Incentive to farmer for quality livestock production
Increasing demand of domestic & global markets for
meat
Technology up-gradation & modernisation in sluagther
house concepts
37
38. Threats
Illegal butcher shops
Insistence of domestic consumers to buy freshly cut
meat from the wet market, rather than processed or
frozen
Socio-economic taboos associated with meat eating
38
40. Government Schemes
The scheme has been scaled up during 12th Five- Year
Plan to cover setting up of 25 new & modernisation of
25 existing slaughter houses ( abbattoirs) for first two
years i.e. 2012-13 & 2013-14
The scheme will be implemented with the involvement
of local bodies ( Municipal Corporations &
Punchayats) /Public Sector Undertakings/ Co-
operatives/ Board under Government & will have
flexibility of involvement of private investors on PPP
basis
40
41. Government Schemes
The scheme envisages a grant of 50% in general
areas & 75% in difficult areas for cost of Plant &
Machinery and Technical Civil Work & other eligible
items subject to maximum Rs.15 Crore per abattoir
Difficult areas include North Eastern States including
Sikkim, Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh,
Uttarakhand & ITDP notified areas of the States
41
42. Regulations for Safe Meat Exports
The Indian meat export are regulated as per Export
Act 1963 (Quality Control and Inspection), Raw Meat
(Chilled and Frozen), the Government of India has laid
down standards for export of meat, which include
standards for abattoir, processing plants and for
various meat products
Registration and licensing of abattoirs and meat
processing plants is done by the Agricultural and
Processed Food Export Development Authority
(APEDA), ministry of commerce and industry, Export
Inspection Council and Food Safety and Standards
42
43. Regulations for Safe Meat Exports
Inspection of the meat processing plants is carried out by
a committee of experts as per the standards laid down in
the Meat and Meat Products Order (1973) of
FSSAI, Government of India.
Inspection focus is on hygiene and sanitary conditions
maintained by the plant, ante-mortem and post-mortem
inspections, infrastructure facilities and the other
parameters compromising expert members from the
diverse groups in meat industry and related fields.
Each export consignment has to be passed the
compulsory quality check before the dispatch with animal
health status certificate duly from veterinarian.
43
45. Areas of Improvement
Livestock development is not in coherence with the
requirements of meat consumption and meat business
Productivity of meat breeds has not tapped
adequately.
Livestock farmers are unaware of the potential of meat
business.
Many middle men are involved in livestock marketing.
45
46. Areas of Improvement
Livestock marketing is not well organised.
There is no integration of animal farming, meat
producers, processors and marketing.
Potentiality of male buffalo for meat production is not
realised.
46
47. Way Ahead : Indian Meat Industry
There is urgent need to take advantage of liberalised
world trade to benefit the Indian meat industry by
Harmonisation of standards
Incentive to farmer for quality livestock production
Stringent quality control measures
Develops long-term strategy for exports
Popularise and develop traditional products technology
Regular monitoring for chemical residues and microbial
quality
Defends SPS measures which are irrational
Make disease-free zones etc
