Livestock Slaughter 2013 Summary (April 2014)
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
65
Statistical Methodology
Data Sources: Primary data for the commercial livestock slaughter estimates are obtained from electronic reports
completed by inspectors from the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), USDA, which provide daily counts of
animals slaughtered in Federally Inspected (FI) plants, in addition to total live and dressed weights. These counts are
combined with data from State-administered Non-Federally Inspected (NFI) slaughter plants to derive total commercial
slaughter estimates. More than 95 percent of the total United States slaughter for any species is under Federal Inspection.
There are approximately 800 livestock slaughter plants in the United States operating under Federal Inspection and over
2,000 Non-Federally Inspected (State-inspected or custom-exempt) slaughter plants. Slaughter from State-inspected
Talmedge-Aiken plants is included in FI totals (see Terms and Definitions, page 69). To prevent duplication in reporting
between FI and NFI plants and assure all FI plants are included, certificates prepared by FSIS identifying operating status
are constantly monitored.
Revision Policy: Number of head slaughtered, live weights, and dressed weights are subject to revision the following
month after the monthly release. Annual totals are published in the slaughter summary each April which includes any
revisions made to current and previous year’s published data. Revisions are generally the result of late reports received
from slaughter plants and are usually less than one-half of one percent. No revisions will be made to the previous year’s
data after the publication of the annual summary in April.
Procedures and Reliability: The livestock slaughter data is obtained electronically on a daily basis and summarized
approximately two weeks after the week of slaughter. An edit compares each plant's data with the historical data for that
plant. Data are checked for unusual values for head kill, patterns of kill, average weights, and dressing percent, based on
each plant's past operating profile. In addition, the edit provides a listing of missing reports for follow-up contact with
FSIS. Average live and dressed weights and dressing percentages by State are compared with the previous weeks as an
additional check. Fluctuations are frequently the result of plants permanently or temporarily closing and a shift in the
species reported.
The FSIS District Veterinary Medical Specialists (DVMS) are contacted by e-mail or telephone for missing or potentially
erroneous slaughter data. This assures that plants slaughtering a large number of head or several species are accounted for
each week. Any corrections FSIS makes to the slaughter data are included in the summary.
Computer imputation may be necessary for incomplete reports. The imputation of live and dressed weights is based on the
current week reported data of plants of similar size and location. Imputation for live and dressed weight data for cattle and
hogs is less than 10 percent and 7 percent, respectively. The imputation for calves and sheep is more frequent and
variable. If no data is received electronically or by other means, for plants slaughtering fewer than 50 total head weekly of
only one species, data are imputed. The imputation of head for any plant is based on the historical data for that particular
plant. The imputation of head slaughtered is rare but when necessary, the imputed head kill for missing plants usually is
less than 1 percent of the United States head kill totals.
FI data are summarized weekly and accumulated to a monthly total for this release. These weekly totals are published by
USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) in Livestock, Meat, Wool Market News, Weekly Summary, and
Statistics and are also available on the NASS website. NFI data are summarized monthly only.
Livestock slaughter estimates are based on a census of operating plants and therefore, have no sampling error. However,
they may be subject to non-sampling errors such as omissions, duplications and mistakes in reporting, recording and
processing the data. These errors are minimized through rigid quality controls in the edit and summarization process, and
a careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
No data are published when an individual plant’s data could be divulged. If not published, these data are still included in
United States and region totals. A review of the data is made annually to determine the publishable data.

Livestock Slaughter 2013 Summary (April 2014)
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Terms and Definitions Used for Livestock Slaughter Estimates
Average Live Weight: The weight of the whole animal, before slaughter. Excludes post-mortem condemnations.
Commercial Production: Includes slaughter and meat production in federally inspected and other plants, but excludes
animals slaughtered on farms.
Custom-Exempt Plants: Plants that do not sell meat but operate on a custom basis only are custom-exempt. The animals
and meat are not inspected, but the facilities must meet health standards. These are considered NFI plants and head kill is
included in NFI totals.
Dressed Weight: The weight of a chilled animal carcass. Beef with kidney knob in; veal with hide off; lamb and mutton
with pluck out; pork with leaf fat and kidneys out, jowls on and head off.
Dressing Percent: Usually expressed as a percentage yield of chilled carcass in relation to the weight of the live animal
on hoof. For example, a live hog that weighed 200 pounds on hoof and yielded a carcass weighing 140 pounds would
have a dressing percentage of 70.
Federally Inspected (FI) Plants: Plants that transport meat interstate must employ federal inspectors to assure
compliance with USDA standards. Any state whose commercial plants operate entirely under federal inspection may still
have custom-exempt establishments for which NFI estimates are made.
Food and Meat Inspection: Includes examination, checking, or testing of a carcass and/or meat against established
government standards and involves checking the facility for cleanliness, health of animals, or parts of animals and quality
of the meat produced.
Non-Federally Inspected (NFI) Plants: Plants which sell and transport only intrastate. State inspectors assure
compliance with individual state standards for these NFI plants. Mobile slaughtering units are excluded and are
considered farm slaughter.
Number of Head: Includes post-mortem condemnations.
Plant, Slaughter: An establishment where animals are killed and butchered.
Red Meat: Red meat production is the carcass weight after slaughter excluding condemnation and is comprised of beef,
veal, pork, and lamb and mutton. The FI red meat production is equal to the total carcass weight after slaughter. The NFI
meat production formula is (NFI head kill) X (live weight) X (FI dressing percentage) = NFI red meat production.
Slaughter: Killing and butchering of animals primarily for food.
Slaughter, Farm: Animals slaughtered on farms primarily for home consumption. Excludes custom slaughter for farmers
at commercial establishments, but includes mobile slaughtering on farms. These estimates appear only in the annual
slaughter release.
Talmedge-Aiken (TA) Plants: Slaughter plants in which USDA is responsible for inspection. However, federal
inspection is carried out by state employees. These plants are considered to be federally inspected.
Total Live Weight: The total live weight of animals, before slaughter. Excludes post-mortem condemnations.
Wholesome Meat Act: Legislation that specifies that all meat produced for sale in the United States must be inspected.
Meat that is transported interstate must be inspected in compliance with Federal (USDA) Standards.
