Questions

How many elk, deer and yak slaughter plants does Missouri have?

2 establishments in Missouri carry the flag in the FSIS directory of 2026-09-01, in 2 counties. 2 of them also report custom-exempt work, which is what a household needs to have its own animal processed.

What does the elk, deer and yak flag mean?

Establishments flagged for farmed elk, deer, reindeer or yak, inspected under the voluntary program. Wild game harvested by hunters is outside inspection and outside this list.

Are state-inspected plants included?

No. This list is federal grants of inspection only. Missouri also runs a state meat inspection program whose plants can sell within the state; the state agency keeps that list, and the Missouri buying guide explains how the two systems fit together.
