Here is the API specification so I would just chuck this into Claude's code and it should be able to figure some stuff out: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/user-guides/data-browser/api-data-access/api-detailed-guidelines/sdmx3-0/data-query

Eurostat also publishes EU-wide food production data: Eurostat Agricultural Production
"Slaughtering in slaughterhouses" or "Meat Production" datasets. Because Eurostat stopped publishing direct "Meat Consumption" stats around 2018, economists now have to calculate it themselves using production and trade data.

• Dataset Code: apro_mt_pann (Annual Meat Production) or apro_mt_pjan (Monthly).
• Dataset Name: Slaughtering in slaughterhouses - annual data.
• Link: Eurostat Data Browser - Slaughtering in slaughterhouses
• downside is that

Probably better than FAOStat
