- The Poultry, Pigs and Other Livestock Farming industry group has one of the smallest workforces across Muka Tangata industries. It has remained relatively stable since 2015 at just over 5,000 workers.
- Trends in the workforce size have, however, varied between industries, where the workforce has been increasing for Poultry Meat Farming and decreasing for Pig Farming, with a more recent decrease for Poultry Egg Farming. Other Livestock Farming has a high proportion of workers who are employers (with or without employees), reflecting the owner operator nature of these farms.
