    REPORT BY THE COMPTROLLER AND AUDITOR GENERAL HC 797 SESSION 2012-13 12 DECEMBER 2012 Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Streamlining farm oversight Our vision is to help the nation spend wisely. We apply the unique perspective of public audit to help Parliament and government drive lasting improvement in public services. The National Audit Office scrutinises public spending for Parliament and is independent of government. The Comptroller and Auditor General (C&AG), Amyas Morse, is an Officer of the House of Commons and leads the NAO, which employs some 860 staff. The C&AG certifies the accounts of all government departments and many other public sector bodies. He has statutory authority to examine and report to Parliament on whether departments and the bodies they fund have used their resources efficiently, effectively, and with economy. Our studies evaluate the value for money of public spending, nationally and locally. Our recommendations and reports on good practice help government improve public services, and our work led to audited savings of more than £1 billion in 2011. Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Streamlining farm oversight Report by the Comptroller and Auditor General Ordered by the House of Commons to be printed on 10 December 2012 This report has been prepared under Section 6 of the National Audit Act 1983 for presentation to the House of Commons in accordance with Section 9 of the Act Amyas Morse Comptroller and Auditor General National Audit Office 6 December 2012 HC 797 London: The Stationery Office £16.00 This report considers the extent to which farm oversight is being successfully streamlined.

  • Rural Payments Agency Business Plan 2014/15
    Rural Payments Agency Business Plan 2014/15 Contents Foreword by the Chief Executive Officer 2 Our purpose 3 Our strategic goals and priorities 4 Indicators and targets 4 Year three of our Five Year Plan – what will we deliver in 2014/15? 6 Being more efficient 10 Better regulation 11 Risk management 12 Joint working and service delivery reform 13 Tackling fraud and error 14 Our people 15 Sustainability 16 Health and Safety 17 Annex A - Financial information 18 Annex B - Governance 22 Annex C - Overview of RPA governance structure 24 Annex D - New activity in 2014/15 25 Annex E - How to contact us 27 Foreword by the Chief Executive Officer Today’s Rural Payments Agency (RPA) is completely unrecognisable from the organisation I joined just over three years ago. When we launched our Five Year Plan in 2012, we promised to stabilise the agency within two years to be in the best position possible to deliver Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) reform in 2015. I am delighted to report this objective has been achieved. By the end of 2013/14 we had delivered the majority of our Strategic Improvement Plan projects and turned in our best ever SPS payments performance while continuing to offer excellent service in other ‘business as usual’ areas such as British Cattle Movement Service (BCMS), farm inspections and our Trader schemes. The coming year will be extremely challenging as we prepare our people, customers and systems for major reform of the CAP. Our aim is to deliver quality business as usual services and safeguard our performance from 2013/14, while also ensuring we are prepared for the change needed to support CAP reform.

  • United Kingdom Poultry and Poultry Meat Statistics September 2020
    22nd October 2020 United Kingdom Poultry and Poultry Meat Statistics – September 2020 This release shows the latest monthly information on poultry statistics, including hatchery output, slaughtering and meat production volumes. The key results for September 2020 in comparison to September 2019 are given below: • UK commercial layer chick placings were down 27% to 2.4 million chicks. (Table 2.3) • UK broiler chick placings were down 1.2 at 82.2 million chicks. (Table 2.3) • Turkey chick placings were down by 1.1% at 1.6 million chicks. (Table 2.3) • Turkey slaughterings were down 36% at 0.6 million birds. (Table 3.1) • UK broiler slaughterings were up 7.7% at 87 million birds. (Table 3.1) • Total UK poultry meat production were up 3.9% at 152.98 thousand tonnes. (Table 3.4) Section 1 – Commentary The number of eggs set each month indicates how many chicks will be available for placing into poultry systems in future months. Hen eggs take around 21 days to hatch, turkey eggs take around 28 days. The number of placed chicks each month indicates future volumes of poultry meat and egg production. Consumer demand strongly affects broiler chick and turkey poult placings. There are clear peaks (of turkeys) and troughs (of broilers) in the average weekly placings figures in the months running up to Christmas (Figs 2.1 and 2.2). This translates into equivalent high/low levels in the slaughtering volumes over the Christmas period (Figs 3.1 and 3.2). Section 2 – Numbers of eggs set and chicks placed by UK hatcheries This section contains tables and charts that indicate the number of eggs set and chicks placed by United Kingdom hatcheries in the most recent months.

There is no doubt that we live in interesting and challenging times for the farming sector; successful agriculture is key to global well-being and effective and sustainable farm management is the very “bedrock” to ensure that this happens. Thus the overall theme of this Congress on Future Farming Systems is highly appropriate and topical. The importance of young people to the industry cannot be overestimated and I am therefore pleased that the final day of this 21st Congress is looking specifically at this vital issue.
