French法语至English英语翻译 [专业] Bus/Financial - 家畜/动物繁殖 / Agriculture (sheep & goat farming) | | French法语词条或短语: collecte européenne | This is a term from a text I’m translating about sheep and goat farming. I’m not really sure what “collecte” is referring to – can anyone help, please? Is it a specialist term or is it something really obvious that I just can’t see?!
Entre 1987 et 2005, le cheptel de chèvres a progressé de +7 % dans l’UE-15. Cette croissance est surtout le fait de la France (+20 %) et des Pays-Bas (+400 %), où les industriels laitiers ont encouragé la mise en place et le développement de grands élevages spécialisés. Près de 40% du cheptel européen caprin laitier et l’essentiel de la collecte européenne sont assurés par ces deux pays plus l’Espagne.
Between 1987 and 2005, the goat herd grew by 7% in the EU-15. This growth is predominantly due to the situation in France (+20%) and the Netherlands (+400%), where dairy producers have encouraged the establishment and development of major specialist breeders. These two countries, together with Spain, are responsible for nearly 40% of the European dairy goat herd and the majority of the European collection (?).
Many thanks for your help! |

| European output
说明: of goats milk, I would say.
Collecte = harvest (ish) but you can't harvest milk, as such, so instead of referring to the action, refer to the result, i.e. the output.

| Europeen milk collection
说明: It seems that they are simply talking about the milk collection from farm to farm etc...
See:"Dairy industry in 2005 - 09/01/2007
- Slight improvement - Primeur N° 187
Milk collections grow by 2% in 2005. Despite this increase, collections remain below French production quotas. Nevertheless production of yogurt and dairy desserts increases."
