The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the Ministry of the Environment, in consultation with stakeholders, have developed regulations for the off-farm disposal of deadstock (dead farm animals) in Ontario. The regulations provide more disposal options for livestock producers and meat plant operators, with measures to protect the environment. Inspection results of deadstock facilities are measured against regulatory standards.
Data tracks the number/weight of dead animals collected by licensed deadstock collectors monthly by animal type.
This dataset is no longer collected or maintained. Information and data held by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs for this record is historical.
