Meat and other

Acquisition effect of 6.7% relates to the Canadian hatchery business and Copaga acquisition in Spain

The Spanish meat business reported a loss in 2008 due to:

Difficulties to compensate on average 25% higher feed prices in Spain

The Spanish economic situation made consumers shift to cheaper products

The poultry hatchery activities in Canada contributed well and above expectations
