Farmed meat ducks

In 2011, approximately 14.7 million ducks were farmed for meat in the UK.

We’re working in a number of different ways to try to improve the conditions in which all farmed ducks are reared, transported and slaughtered.

As well as the information on these pages, we've also produced The welfare of farmed ducks information sheet July 2012 (PDF: 808 KB).
