As of 2023, the industry data for guinea fowl and goose meat slaughtering in the UK indicated the volume to be slightly above the forecasted number for 2024, highlighting a declining trend. The forecasted values from 2024 to 2028 depict a steady year-on-year decline, averaging around 2.3% decrease annually. This downward trajectory in the slaughtering volume suggests market contraction over the forthcoming years.

Looking ahead, it is pertinent to monitor:

Changing consumer preferences towards alternative poultry or plant-based proteins.
Impact of environmental and animal welfare considerations on consumer demand.
Potential policy changes affecting poultry farming practices in the UK.
