What the National Pig Census is
Pig keepers must count the number of animals present on their farms each year and record the details on a census form. They are legally obliged to return their census form each year to the Department of Agriculture Food and the Marine.
What you must do
Pig keepers registered with the department receive a census return in the post to record the number of pigs on the farm. It should be returned immediately in the prepaid envelope provided.
