Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Notwithstanding the standard presentation laid down in point B.III of Annex IV to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, pig carcases in Latvia may be presented without the head, the tail, the forefeet and/or the hind feet before being weighed and graded.

In order to establish quotations for pig carcases on a comparable basis, the following fixed coefficients shall be applied in all cases if some of the following carcase parts are missing:

  • for the missing head: 8,345,

  • for the missing tail: 0,072,

  • for the missing forefeet: 0,764,

  • for the missing hind feet: 1,558.

The standard presentation carcase weight shall be calculated according to the formula:

Standard presentation carcase weight = 100 × carcase weight (without missing part(s))/(100 – coefficient(s) for missing part(s))
