Poultry and poultry products

  • Chapter
Micro-Organisms in Foods

Abstract

Large amounts of poultry products are consumed throughout the world. It is estimated that 38 000 000 metric tonnes of poultry are produced annually. In the United States and the EU countries, 70–80% of poultry production is chickens and 19% is turkeys (Anonymous, 1993). Other poultry (ducks, geese, Cornish game hens, guinea fowl, peacocks, pigeons) also are produced in large numbers in certain regions. Gamebirds (quail, partridge, pheasant and grouse) are processed for retail sale and food service establishments. Approximately 6% of the poultry meat production (2 275 000 tonnes) was shipped internationally in 1989. The major exporting countries during 1990–1992 were the United States (20%), France (18%), Netherlands (15%), Brazil (11%), Hungary (6%), Thailand (6%) and China (4%). Projections are for poultry meat production to increase to 55 000 000 tonnes by the year 2010 with about 11% of the production to be traded internationally (Brown, 1993). Products shipped in international trade include carcasses or parts of chickens, turkeys, ducks, and geese and a wide variety of commercially prepared products.
