Questions
How many hog slaughter plants does Kentucky have?
29 establishments in Kentucky carry the flag in the FSIS directory of 2026-09-01, in 27 counties. 26 of them also report custom-exempt work, which is what a household needs to have its own animal processed.
What does the hogs flag mean?
Establishments with a slaughter flag for market swine, sows, roasters or feral swine. A plant that slaughters cattle does not necessarily take hogs; the flag is per species.
Are state-inspected plants included?
No. This list is federal grants of inspection only. Kentucky has no state meat inspection program, so federal inspection and the custom exemption are the two routes available.
