During the analysed period, poultry meat production increased by 17%, while the number of business entities increased by 25 %. At the same time, beef and veal production decreased by 27.8%, while pork production increased by 33%. Based on the results obtained, it is possible to continuously provide processing enterprises with meat raw materials, namely, chicken meat for the production of meat products, and it is also relevant to introduce resource-saving technologies for obtaining a product with less weight loss and waste during processing. The study results can be used by enterprises when planning the release of products to the market, developing new recipes, improving existing production technologies, and understanding trends and volumes of meat and meat products on the Ukrainian market
