Abstract
Pig production is one of the major
activities in Spain. Less than 20% of pigs are
castrated mainly for meat quality purposes and to
avoid boar taint. Due to the negative impact of
castration to animal welfare European Union has
planned to voluntary end surgical castration by 2018.
The aim of this study was to know the attitudes of
different stakeholders about this banning. Focus
group methodology was used to assess it with the
different stakeholders involved. Results showed that
the stakeholders feel that because production of
entire male pigs in Spain is already high, ending
castration might not be a problem in a near future.
But they think that exceptions to the declaration for
high quality products such as differentiated quality
and Iberian pig production have to be listed.
