User Engagement
Data from the egg production statistics are an invaluable evidence base for policy makers, academics and researchers. The data is also heavily relied upon by representatives of the egg and poultry industry. The egg production data is used for egg production volumes and egg type, as these are key sector indicators for the British Egg Industry Council (BEIC) since they reflect the size of the national laying flock. The British Free Range Egg Producers Association also makes heavy use of our data as it indicates the size of the free-range sector.
As part of our ongoing commitment to compliance with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics we wish to strengthen our engagement with users of the egg production data and better understand the use made of them and the types of decisions that they inform.
